=THE FORGED COUPON. By Count Leo Tolstoi.= (Published 1912.) This story shows the successive evil and wrong resulting from the forging of a bank note by a student in need of money. Numerous crimes succeed each other as a result of this first wrong act, until the wave of crime is checked by a poor, ignorant woman and a lame tailor, who follow the real teaching of Christ. The book contains also =After the Ball=, a story of love and military life; =Korney Vasilyev=, a story of peasant life; =Tolstoi’s Vital Humanitarian Ideas=, giving the very essence of the fountain-spring and incentive of all the literary work ever written by this wonderful man—a peep, as it were, at the power-works of his thinking machine. Cloth bound. Price, $1.00; postpaid. * * * * * =J. S.
