THE CALLING OF DAN MATTHEWS

"Mr. Wright has written other novels, but this one is so strong and
wholesome, so attractive as literature, so interesting as a story, so
artistic in preparation, that it wins increasing favor as one gets into
it."--_Buffalo Evening News_.

"Mr. Wright has the gift of knowing people well and of being able to set
out their characteristics so clearly that his reader also knows them
well."--_Chicago Journal_.

"It is a privilege to meet the people whom the author allows you to
know. They are worth while; and to cry and feel with them, get into the
fresh, sweet atmosphere with which the writer surrounds them--and above
all, to understand Dan Matthews and to go with him in his
unfoldment--these will repay you."--_Portland Spectator_.

"Harold Bell Wright has done a fine big piece of work. * * * One might
quote at length from the old doctor's homely philosophy. The book can
not be read without the keenest enjoyment and at the end of the story
one feels that the people are old friends, real flesh and blood
characters, so human are they all."--_San Francisco Call_.

"A skillfully mapped battle-field of human souls, relieved, it is true,
by humor, but, for the most part, pathetic and, at times, brooded over
by the mystery of spirit-strength, life's close, never-ending
tragedy."--_Chicago Examiner_.

"Mr. Wright's books are wholesome in the best sense. They express a
faith which lies in practical deeds. This latest of them should
materially extend the author's favor in a field which he has made his
own."--_New York World_.

York Tribune_.

"Beautiful both in language and in sentiment."--_Chicago News._

"It represents dreams of artistic magnificence."--_Buffalo Evening
News_.

"The secret of his power is the same God-given secret that inspired
Shakespeare and upheld Dickens."--_Philadelphia Sunday Dispatch_.

"It is the greatest story since Bunyan's 'Pilgrim's Progre
