The Way of the Gods

By JOHN LUTHER LONG

As the readers of "Madam Butterfly" know, there is no one, since the death
of Lafcadio Hearn, who can make Japanese life so charming as does Mr.
Long. This story of the little samurai, hardly big enough to be a soldier,
and of how the fair eta Hoshiko met his obligations for him, is very real
and appealing.

The Vine of Sibmah

By Dr. ANDREW MACPHAIL

"The book is taut with action and breathless climaxes. Its principal
character, a soldier, has for his friend a most engaging pirate. This
combination alone makes interesting reading."--_Chicago Evening Post._
