+Even as You and I.+ This is a presentation, by means of popular and
simple allegories, of the doctrine of Henry George and the principle
which underlies it. A part of the volume is an account of Tolstoy's
philosophy, drawn largely from the Russian's difficult work, "Of Life."
This section is called "True Life," and follows a series of thirty-three
clever parables. Count Tolstoy wrote to Mr. Hall: "I have received your
book, and have read it. I think it is very good, and renders in a
concise form quite truly the chief ideas of my book." 16mo, cloth,
ornamental, gilt top, 50 c.; by mail +54c.+

lower now than in the fifteenth century. Cloth +$1.00+
+Civilization, Its Cause and Cure.+ By Edward Carpenter. Cloth +$1.00+
+England's Ideal, and Other Papers on Social Subjects.+ By Edward
Carpenter. Edward Carpenter is at once a profound student of social

poetic insight. Everything he writes is worth reading. Cloth +$1.00+

+The Origin and Growth of Village Communities in India.+ By B. H.

+American Communities.+ By William Alfred Hinds. Mr. Hinds was for many

scores of others, which particularly fits him for the task. Cloth, 433
pages, with 17 full-page illustrations +$1.00+
+The Sale of an Appetite.+ By Paul Lafargue. This book by one of the
foremost socialists of Europe is a notable work of art considered merely
as a story and at the same time it is one of the most stirring
indictments of the capitalist system ever written. Cloth, illustrated
+50c.+
+The Triumph of Life.+ By Wilhelm Boelsche. The German critics of this
book all agree that it is more interesting than his previous work on
"The Evolution of Man," and those who have read the former work will
realize what this means. The book is the story of the victory of life
over the planet earth and is told in a marvelously vivid and picturesque
manner. Cloth +50c.+
+Poems of Walt Whitman.+ We have secured a reprint of Whitman's famous
"Leaves of Grass" for the benefit of those who, having read Mrs.
Maynard's charming introduction, may desire to read the poet. Nearly all
of Whitman's poems are contained therein, and John Burroughs has written
a biographical introduction.
TO YOU, WHOEVER YOU ARE.
I will leave all, and come and make the hymns of you;
None have understood you, but I understand you,
None have done justice to you--you have not done justice to
yourself.
