*The Ladies' Pageant*

BY E.V. LUCAS

"An unusual collection of poetry and prose in comment upon the varying
aspects of the feminine form and nature, wherein is set forth for the
delectation of man what great writers from Chaucer to Ruskin have said
about the eternal feminine. The result is a decidedly companionable
volume."--_Town and Country_.

"To possess this book is to fill your apartment--your lonely farm parlor
or little 'flat' drawing-room in which few sit--with the rustle of silks
and the swish of lawns; to comfort your ear with seemly wit and musical
laughter; and to remind you how sweet an essence ascends from the
womanly heart to the high altar of the Maker of Women."--_The Chicago
Tribune_.

*Some Friends of Mine* A RALLY OF MEN

BY E.V. LUCAS

At last the sterner sex is to have its literary dues. In this little
volume Mr. Lucas has essayed to do for men what he did for the heroines
of life and poetry and fiction in "The Ladies Pageant." No other editor
has so deft a hand for work of this character, and this volume is as
rich a fund of amusement and instruction as all the previous ones of the
author have been.

An anthology of letter-writing so human, interesting, and amusing from
first to last, as almost to inspire one to attempt the restoration of
the lost art.

"There is hardly a letter among them all that one would have left out,
and the book is of such pleasant size and appearance, that one would not
have it added to, either."--_The New York Time
