The scene of this novel is laid in Paris, and the characters are
for the most part students living the care-free life of the
Quartier Latin. There is an unusual but very lovable heroine in
Pruina, a dainty creature who will win friends wherever she goes.
"Nothing Else Matters" is in itself an interesting story, but it
may furthermore serve as a pleasant introduction to some of the
most delightful aspects of life in the French capital.
JOHN PULITZER: Reminiscences of a Secretary. By Alleyne
Ireland. With eight illustrations.
$1.25 net.
This will prove a peculiarly attractive book to the average man
and woman. Mr. Ireland, who is a well-known member of the staff
of The New York World, was one of the half dozen private
secretaries who were constantly with Pulitzer, or "J. P.," as
they called him. In this book you see the very man, you learn how
he lived, what he read, and you get an idea of the vigor and
power that made The World the great paper it is.
No ordinary biography this--but a tale that for sheer interest in
its telling leaves most fiction far behind. It is dedicated (by
permission) to Joseph Pulitzer's widow.

Billy: The True Story of a Canary Bird
By MAUD THORNHILL PORTER
950 copies, Fcap 8vo. $1.00 net
This pathetic little story was first issued by Mr. Mosher in a
privately printed edition of 500 copies and was practically sold
out before January 1, 1913. The late Dr. Weir Mitchell in a
letter to the owner of the copyright said among other things:
"Certainly no more beautiful piece of English has been printed of
late years." And again: "May I ask if this lady did not leave
other literary products? The one you print is so unusual in style
and quality and imagination that after I read it I felt convinced
there must be other matter of like character."
