NEW MACMILLAN FICTION

Saturday's Child

By KATHLEEN NORRIS, Author of "Mother," "The Treasure," etc. With
frontispiece in colors by F. Graham Cootes. Decorated cloth, 12mo.
$1.50 net.

"Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child must work for her living."

The title of Mrs. Norris' new novel at once indicates its theme. It
is the life 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 thins 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' 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' longest work. Into
it has gone the very best of her creative talent. It is a volume
which the many admirers of _Mother_ will gladly accept.

The Game of Life and Death: Stories of the Sea

By LINCOLN COLCORD, Author of "The Drifting Diamond," etc. With
frontispiece. Decorated cloth, 12mo. $1.25 net.

Upon the appearance of Mr. Colcord's _The Drifting Diamond_, critics
throughout the country had a great deal to say on the pictures of
the sea which it contained. Mr. Colcord was compared to Conrad, to
Stevenson, and to others who have written of the sea with much
success. It is gratifying, therefore, that in this book the briny
deep furnishes the background--in some instances the plot
itself--for each one of its eleven tales. Coupled with his own
intimate knowledge and appreciation of the oceans and the life that
is lived on them--a knowledge and appreciation born in him through a
long line of seafaring ancestry and fostered by his own love for the
sea--he has a powerful style of writing. Vividne
