_Bookman_: "Much of that exquisite egotism, the huge, artistic Me and the tiny universe, that gluttony of the emotions, of the whole peculiar compound of hysteria, inspiration, vanity, insight and fidgets, which goes to make up that delightful but somewhat rickety thing which we call the artistic temperament is reproduced.... The 'Diary of a Musician' does what most actual diaries fail to do--writes down a man in full." Henry Holt and Company Publishers (I, '05) New York Two Noteworthy Detective Stories by Burton E. Stevenson The Marathon Mystery With five scenes in color by ELIOT KEEN 4th printing. $1.50 This absorbing story of New York and Long Island to-day has been republished in England. Its conclusion is most astonishing. _N. Y. Sun_: "Distinctly an interesting story--one of the sort that the reader will not lay down before he goes to bed." _N. Y. Post_: "By comparison with the work of Anna Katharine Green ... it is exceptionally clever ... told interestingly and well." _N. Y. Tribune_: "=The Holladay Case= was a capital story of crime and mystery. In =The Marathon Mystery= the author is in even firmer command of the trick. He is skillful in keeping his reader in suspense, and every element in it is cunningly adjusted to preserving the mystery inviolate until the end." _Boston Transcript_: "The excellence of its style, Mr. Stevenson apparently knowing well the dramatic effect of fluency and brevity, and the rationality of avoiding false clues and attempts unduly to mystify his readers." _Boston Herald_: "This is something more than an ordinary detective story. It thrills you and holds your attention to the end. But besides all this the characters are really well drawn and your interest in the plot is enhanced by interest in the people who play their parts therein." _Town and Country_: "The mystery defies solution until the end. The final catastrophe is worked out in a highly dramatic manner." The Holladay Case With frontispiece by ELIOT KEEN 7th printing. $1.25 A tale of a modern mystery of New York and Etretat that has been republished in England and Germany. _N. Y. Tribune_: "Professor Dicey recently said, 'If you like a detective story take care you read a good detective story.' This is a good detective story, and it is the better because the part of the hero is not filled by a member of the profession.... The reader will not want to put the book down until he has reached the last page. =Most ingeniously constructed and well written into the bargain.=" Henry Holt and Company Publishers New York TWO ROMANCES OF TRAVEL The Lightning Conductor _The Strange Adventures of a Motor Car_ By C.
