al, invariably individual."--_Boston Transcript._ ROBERT HERRICK'S Together _Cloth, 12mo, $1.50 net_ "An able book, remarkably so, and one which should find a place in the library of any woman who is not a fool."--_Editorial in the New York American._ A Life for a Life _Cloth, 12mo, $1.50 net_ Mr. W. D. Howells says in the North American Review: "What I should finally say of his work is that it is more broadly based than that of any other American novelist of his generation.... Mr. Herrick's fiction is a force for the higher civilization, which to be widely felt, needs only to be widely known." JAMES LANE ALLEN'S The Bride of the Mistletoe _Cloth, 12mo, $1.25 net_ "He has achieved a work of art more complete in expression than anything that has yet come from him. It is like a cry of the soul, so intense one scarcely realizes whether it is put into words or not."--_Bookman_. "It is a masterpiece ... the most carefully wrought out of all his work." WINSTON CHURCHILL'S Mr. Crewe's Career _Illustrated, cloth, 12mo, $1.50 net_ "Mr. Churchill rises to a level he has never known before and gives us one of the best stories of American life ever written; ... it is written out of a sympathy that goes deep.... We go on to the end with growing appreciation.... It is good to have such a book."--_New York Tribune._ "American realism, American romance, and American doctrine, all overtraced by the kindliest, most appealing American humor."--_New York World._ ELLEN GLASGOW'S The Romance of a Plain Man _Cloth, 12mo, $1.50 net_ "To any one who has a genuine interest in American literature there is no pleasanter thing than to see the work of some good American writer strengthening and deepening year by year as has the work of Miss Ellen Glasgow. From the first she has had the power to tell a strong story, full of human interest, but as the years have passed and her work has continued it has shown an increasing mellowness and sympathy. This is particularly evident in 'The Romance of a Plain Man.'"--_Chicago Daily Tribune._ JACK LONDON'S Martin Eden
