"Oh, yes! Of course, I worry about them all the time. Aunt Martha's as
good to them as she knows how, but she's so old-fashioned. But I'm glad
for another reason. I never realized before the real difference between
Walter and me. It's a wonderfully beautiful life, that cottage of
theirs, the books, the old colleges, and the river. You can't deny that
there's a graciousness about it. But it would kill me. He's happy
thinking about things. But I'd die if I wasn't doing things! Love isn't
enough by itself. I'd starve. I'm hungry to get back to work. That's the
Real Thing, we got, Isadore. It makes our Love worth while. Our Work."

_BY THE SAME AUTHOR_
A Man's World
By ALBERT EDWARDS
_Cloth, 12mo, $1.25 net; postpaid, $1.36_
"A striking book that should attract wide attention."--_New York
Tribune._
"There never has been a book like 'A Man's World.'... A novelist of
skill and power.... His greatest gift is his power of creating the
illusion of reality.... Vividness and conviction unite in the wonderful
portrait of Nina.... There never has been such a character in American
fiction before.... Nina will be one of the famous twentieth century
heroines."--_Brooklyn Eagle._
"It is a great book, full of the real things of life.... Zola might have
written such a book had he lived in New York and not in Paris. Yet, it
is doubtful if he could have told a better tale in a better way, for
Nina and Ann are just as true to life as Nana and Ninon."--_Chicago
Record-Herald._
"The book is far from ordinary and its philosophy is
extraordinary."--_New York Times Book Review._
"A new type of human document--written in all sincerity and
honesty."--_New York Herald._
