her unlimited praise for her
character work. _The Three Sisters_ reveals her at her best. It is a
story of temperament, made evident not through tiresome analyses but by
means of a series of dramatic incidents. The sisters of the title
represent three distinct types of womankind. In their reaction under
certain conditions Miss Sinclair is not only telling a story of
tremendous interest but she is really showing a cross section of life.

NEW MACMILLAN FICTION

The Rise of Jennie Cushing

By MARY S. WATTS, Author of "Nathan Burke," "Van Cleeve," etc.

_Cloth, 12mo. $1.35 net._

In _Nathan Burke_ Mrs. Watts told with great power the story of a man.
In this, her new book, she does much the same thing for a woman. Jennie
Cushing is an exceedingly interesting character, perhaps the most
interesting of any that Mrs. Watts has yet given us. The novel is her

that cannot be gainsaid.

Saturday's Child

By KATHLEEN NORRIS, Author of "Mother," "The Treasure," etc.

_With frontispiece in colors by F. Graham Cootes. Decorated cloth,

the story of a girl who has her own way to make in the world. The
various experiences through which she passes, the various viewpoints
which she holds until she comes finally to realize that service for
others is the only thing that counts, are told with that same intimate
knowledge of character, that healthy optimism and the belief in the
ultimate goodness of mankind that have distinguished all of this
author's writing. The book is intensely alive with human emotions. The
reader is bound to sympathize with Mrs. Norris's people because they
seem like _real_ people and because they are actuated by motives which
one is able to understand. _Saturday's Child_ is Mrs. Norris's longest
work. Into it has gone the very best of her creative t
