Margarita's Soul: The Romantic Recollections of a Man of Fifty
Bacon, Josephine Daskam
Fiction
"Will supply all normal readers, motor enthusiasts or
otherwise, with cause for chuckling during a good
half-hour."--_Chicago Record-Herald._
"Mr. Street's style is lively and vivacious."--_Boston
Transcript._
"In the manner of Jerome K. Jerome and may be heartily
commended."--_New York Globe._
"The humor of Julian Street first became known by the
publication of the clever little story 'My Enemy--the
Motor.'"--_The Boston Herald._
"More acceptable than the ordinary run of novels because it
is more amusing, less pretentious and not so long. About as
long as the ordinary novel might be if only novelists would
omit superfluities. Just the right length."--_N. Y. Evening
Sun._
THE NEED OF CHANGE
BY
JULIAN STREET
_Illustrated. Cloth. 16mo. 50 cents net. Postage 6 cents._
"A sketch too good to miss. Deliciously
humorous."--_Baltimore Sun._
"Delightful. Jovial and joyous as a fat man's hearty
laugh."--_Chicago Record-Herald._
"A brilliant story, sympathetically illustrated."--_New York
American._
"Fortify yourself when you start the story. If you don't, you
may disturb the passengers by laughing right out loud."--_San
Francisco Bulletin._
"Many laughs between the covers. The story is told with
spirit and a constant sense of humor."--_New York Saturday
Review of Books._
"Now and again you have the extreme luck to run across a book
that is really FUNNY. Not the machine-made, madly-advertised
type. 'The Need of Change' is the kind that usually you pick
up by accident, start to run through casually, find yourself
startled into a chuckle by some unexpected humorous line, and
end by reading every word with zest and hustling around to
loan it to your friends.... Keeps the reader in one
continuous howl; the fun never becomes forced. A
gem!"--_Philadelphia Item._
THE HICKORY LIMB
BY
PARKER H. FILLMORE
_Illustrated. Cloth. 16mo. 50 cents net. Postage 6 cents._
"'The Hickory Limb' is a remarkable story, which I have
enjoyed, appreciated, and admired. It displays a knowledge of
human nature, tenderness and humor."--_Charles Battell
Loomis._
"A true and amusing picture of child life."--_Louisville
Courier-Journal._
"The little heroine and all the children are capital."--_New
York Sun._
"A charming companion to popular 'Alice in
Wonderland.'"--_Chicago Record-Herald._
"One of the most relishable pieces of humor evolved in some
time."--_Albany Argus._
"We do not recall having seen any more striking evidence of
the arrival of an age of social experimentation than little
Margery's rebellion."--_Chicago Evening Post._
"A dainty idyll, full of charm. Should prove a
classic."--_Cincinnati Enquirer._
"Powerful in its subtle analysis of childhood
philosophy."--_Rochester Union and Advertiser._
