Literature, Modern -- 20th century -- Periodicals
A splendid holiday biography of George Washington, by the well
known American historian, superbly illustrated by the famous
French artist, Comte J. Onfroy de Breville, known to art lovers
the world over as JOB. There are forty-eight full page pictures
(including several double-page pictures), each covering the
entire page, printed in the French style without margins, and
reproduced in five colors. Altogether the volume is the most
attractive and probably the most interesting and authoritative
pictorial life of Washington which has been made.
Handsomely bound in green and gold. Quarto. Boxed, $5.00

Love and the Soul-Maker
By Mary Austin, author of “_The Arrow Maker_”
In this new book the author makes one of the strongest pleas for
the home that has ever been voiced. Mrs. Austin discusses frankly
the problems of sex differences that are being encountered
everywhere today in our social life, and proves that the balance
of the social relations can be accomplished only by the same
frank handling of the so-called problem of the double standard of
morality. Every serious minded man and woman should read it.

Hail and Farewell—
“Ave,” “Salve” and “Vale”
By George Moore
In these three volumes the author brings us into very close touch
with very many men and women who have helped to make the history
of art and literature during the last decade. “It is a wonderful
tour de force in literary art, with scarcely a parallel since
Rousseau’s Confessions.”—_North American_, Philadelphia. _Cloth,
gilt top, $1.75 each vol._
Insurgent Mexico
By John Reed
This is the true story of the Mexico of today; showing the peon
in war and in peace; intimately portraying the character of this
little understood people and their leaders; describing many of
the scenes along the march of Villa’s victorious army, and
offering to the reader the only up-to-date and accurate account
of the Mexican situation available. _$1.50 net._

Relations; Journalism in America and Britain; Militarism;
Patriotism; Naturalization, and many other important subjects of
interest to all English speaking people. The author is a strong
believer in Democracy, though he sees many faults in it. These he
discusses frankly, with a hopeful outlook for the future. _Cloth,
