CONGRESSMAN HARDIE.
By COURTNEY WELLINGTON. A self-made man, and a thorough democrat
like Congressman Hardie, will always be an interesting
character, and one that appeals to all genuine Americans. The
romance pervading the pages of the book is a delicate one, and
skilfully interwoven with the various political events. The
heroine is an original conception on the part of the writer,
and we see her in some phases of city life not before portrayed
in romance. Cloth bound. 1.25
AMY WARREN.
By A. SYDNEY LOGAN. Author of “Not on the Chart.” The appeal of
this story lies in its naturalness. The hero, Harold Littleton,
is not an impossible conception, but a real man of flesh and
blood, faults and virtues. A new phase of American country life
is also set forth with great fidelity. The worth of this book
to the average reader is in the immediate refreshment and
absolute change of ideas he can get by opening its pages
anywhere. It contains some fine imaginative work and has heroic
love for its theme. Cloth bound, gilt top. 1.50
KATHARINE BARRY.
By HARRY HUGHES. The sacrifice of sentiment to religion is always
a fascinating topic. In the case of this novel, it is
particularly so, because of the earnestness and evident
sincerity of the devoted young girl. She was only a farmer’s
daughter, but she passed through most extraordinary
experiences, even to being the medium of psychic-phenomena. It
is a most interesting book. Cloth bound, gilt top. 1.25
MISS HOGG; The American Heiress.
By MRS. V. C. JONES. The adventures of an American girl in London
are used as the foundation of this story. Miss Hogg was an
uncultured heiress, bent on capturing a coronet. In furtherance
of her plans, she uses almost desperate means, and places
herself in very perilous situations. Her American wit, however,
helps her safely through them all, and, at the close of the
book she is respected and happy. Cloth bound, gilt top. 1.50
INVISIBLE LIGHT; or, The Electric Theory of Creation.
By GEORGE W. WARDER. “He holds there are only three elemental
substances in nature: spirit, electricity and matter. Matter is
controlled by electricity, and electricity is controlled by
spirit intelligence. That in discovering electricity man has
found the working force of Deity, and uses it in all fields of
human effort. The arguments are convincing, and the book
attractive and entertaining.”—_The Kansas City Star._
Beautifully bound in cloth. 1.25
