These stories of outwitting the antique-dealer in city, village and country will be read with much zest by all lovers of the antique. They are brightly written, and are the outcome of long experience at picking up rare autographed books that could not be acquired by purchase, and at outwitting the antique-dealer at his own game. We sympathize with the antique-hunter when the wicked dealer attempts to charge him seventeen dollars for a Benjamin Franklin cup-plate needed to round out his collection, and we rejoice when the hunter slips out in full view of the dealer, leaving his monocle on the counter and using the cup-plate as his monocle. There are equally stirring stories of Sheraton high-boys, an old Colonial cradle, a 36-year-old bottle of Glenlivet whiskey, and an original box of Haskell golf balls with seal unbroken. _Some Press Opinions_ “Stories of an unusual antique-sense, showing much close observation and practical knowledge, as well as a bright and pleasant fancy.” _Plumbers’ Guide._ “The author artfully combines instruction with advanced and forward-looking ideals.” _The Nation._ “A refreshing book, after the wishy-washy, goody-goody trash with which preceding generations have been led astray.” _The Dial._ “I am pleased with this book. I have read it entirely through once, and I am thinking of reading it again. I think it would stand four or five readings. It is written in the style that I approve. I shall mention it to all my friends, and I hope that all my friends will mention it.” _Hendrik Van Lunkhead in the Biltmore Bun._ TALKS ABOUT TABLE-LEGS BY FRANK FLUSH, B.S., F.A.S.

H. Lawrence in the N.Y. Times._ “A fascinating introduction to the study of wooden legs.” _Cabinetmakers’ Review._ “Mr. Flush has done for table-legs what some of the younger school of American writers, notably F. Scott Fitzgerald, has done for flappers—made them seem almost human.” _Tacoma Trade Gazette._ AUTOGRAPHS AND ANTIMACASSARS BY C.
