Deborah: A tale of the times of Judas Maccabaeus
Ludlow, James M. (James Meeker)
Jewish fiction; Jews -- History -- 586 B.C.-70 A.D. -- Fiction; Maccabees -- Fiction
A deeply interesting account of early missionary work in Korea set in
story form. A striking picture of the ideals for which the Christian
Church in that country continues to stand, despite the opposition of
Japan.

An Account of American Baptist Missions to the Karens of Burma.

_Dr. Howard B. Grose_ (_Editor of "Missions"_) says: "Have read this
book with exceeding interest. It strikes me as quite out of the usual
order of missionary books. It is enlightening and unusually readable,
clearly broad-spirited and with an intellectual grasp of conditions."
FICTION
_JOSEPH HOCKING_
_Author of
"The Passion for Life"_
Prodigal Daughters
$1.75
Another tale which, like "The Passion for Life," will hold the reader
spell-bound until the last page is reached. It is a frank, up-to-date
story of what Henry van Dyke calls "this generation of butterflies".
A powerful piece of writing in which the famous novelist graphically
describes the struggle against the flood of new morals and ethics and
dress of the younger generation.

_DAVID HOWARTH_
The Valley of Gold
A Tale of the Saskatchewan. Illustrated
$1.75
A rip-roaring story of the great North-West country by a brand new
writer. A "RALPH CONNORESQUE" story replete with incident--tests of
strength, keen rivalries between farm-crews and wheat farmers, and
hot-blood developments arising therefrom. There is, of course, a fine
love story intertwining the rougher happenings, together with the
other elements which go to make a big, gripping story.
_JOSEPHINE HOPE WESTERVELT_
The Lure of the Leopard Skin
A Story of the African Wilds.
$1.75
A stirring tale of adventure in that part of Africa in which Theodore
Roosevelt did his hunting for big game. In a letter received by the
author, that great American said: "That must have been an exciting
hunt; and I congratulate you about the leopard. It sounds like old
times to hear that a train had run into a giraffe, and was stopped for
an hour in consequence."
_DANIEL FREDERICK FOX_
The Vindication of Robert Creighton
A Tale of the South-West.
$1.75
A strong, upstanding story with scenes laid in the South-West--full
of action, and marked by deft characterization and genuinely human
interest. Dr. Fox knows his country, his types, and how to develop his
plot naturally. A fine, interesting piece of work.
