This story gives a portrayal of the noblest of Indians--Hiawatha. It
follows established facts, and bares to the reader the heart of his
race. It is a convincing tale.
The training of the Indian youth is shown; the career of the hero as
a warrior is told; his great work for peace with the Five Tribes is
described.
Besides the story, there is an account of the historical Hiawatha;
also a complete Glossary giving definitions as well as pronunciations
of the new Indian words. A map of the country of the Longhouse will
enable the reader to follow the journeys of the Indian people.
The book is intended as a supplementary reader in schools, being
adapted to the sixth grade or above. It will also be valuable in
groups of the Wood-craft League, Camp-fire Girls, and Boy Scouts.
_Cloth, xxvi + 329 pages. Price $1.60._

The Biggest Thing of its kind in the World
CALUMET BAKING POWDER
It may be interesting to know which is the largest city in China--the
largest river in Africa--but it is MORE important to know about the
industrial life of your country--because when most of you go out into
the world you will become active figures in the making, buying and
selling of things.
The Calumet Baking Powder factories, in Chicago and East St. Louis are
the largest, most modern and sanitary plants of their kind on earth.
More pounds of Calumet are sold than of any other brand of baking
powder.
That is because Calumet is the best purest, most dependable baking
powder made; makes the finest, most wholesome, tasty pies, cakes,
biscuits, doughnuts, etc.
