TOLD BY THE PEOPLE.

By MRS. F. A. STEEL.

With Illustrations by J. LOCKWOOD KIPLING, C.I.E., and Notes
by R. C. TEMPLE.

16mo. Cloth, Gilt. $2.00.

"A book that will be welcomed no less eagerly by the children
than by students of folklore from a scientific standpoint is
Mrs. Steel's collection of Indian stories, entitled 'Tales of
the Punjab.' They were taken down by her from the very lips
of the natives in some of the most primitive districts in
India. Yet these tales, handed down solely by word of mouth
from one generation to another, could hardly be distinguished
from those in a Teutonic collection like that of the Brothers
Grimm; and even closer examination serves only to impress
upon us more strongly than ever before the unity of the great
Indo-European family of nations."--_Nashville Banner._

UNIFORM EDITION OF THE STORIES AND POEMS
OF RUDYARD KIPLING.

Seven Volumes. 12mo. Cloth. $1.25 each.

PLAIN TALES FROM THE HILLS.

"Mr. Kipling knows and appreciates the English in India, and
is a born story-teller and a man of humor into the
bargain.... It would be hard to find better reading."--_The
Saturday Review, London._

THE LIGHT THAT FAILED.

"'The Light that Failed' is an organic whole--a book with a
backbone--and stands out boldly among the nerveless, flaccid,
invertebrate things that enjoy an expensive but ephemeral
existence in the circulating libraries."--_The Athenaeum._

LIFE'S HANDICAP.

Stories of Mine Own People.

"No volume of his yet published gives a better illustration
of his genius, and of the weird charm which has given his
stories such deserved popularity."--_Boston Daily Traveler._

THE NAULAHKA.

A Story of East and West.

By RUDYARD KIPLING and WOLCOTT BALESTIER.

"What is the most surprising, and at the same time most
admirable in this book, is the manner in which Mr. Kipling
seems to grasp the character of the native women; we know of
nothing in the English language of its kind to compare with
chapter xx. in its delicacy and genuine sympathy."
