THE STREET OF SEVEN STARS
By Mary Roberts Rinehart
A story of two young lovers--students in far-away Vienna--and their
struggle with poverty and temptation. Incidentally, a graphic picture of
life in the war-worn city of the Hapsburgs.
From Letters to the Author:
"Fresh and clean and sweet--a story which makes one feel the better for
having read it and wish that he could know all of your dear
characters."--_California._
"Little that has been written in the last decade has given me such
pleasure, and nothing has moved me to pen to an author a word of praise
until to-day."--_Utah._
"'The Street of Seven Stars' will be read fifty years from now, and will
still be helping people to be braver and better."--_New York._
"It stands far above any recent fiction I have read."--_Massachusetts._
"Quite the best thing you have ever written."--_Connecticut._

THE POET
By Meredith Nicholson
A clever, kindly portrait of a famous living poet, interwoven with a
charming love story.
"Not since Henry Harland told us the story of the gentle Cardinal and
his snuffbox, have we had anything as idyllic as Meredith Nicholson's
'The Poet.'"--_New York Evening Sun._
"This delightful story, so filled with blended poetry and common sense,
reminds one, as he reaches instinctively for a parallel, of the rarely
delicate and beautiful ones told by Thomas Bailey Aldrich."--_Washington
Star._
"A rare performance in American literature. Everybody knows who the Poet
is, but if they want to know him as a kind of Good Samaritan in a
different way than they know him in his verses, they should read this
charming idyll."--_Boston Transcript._

THE WITCH
By Mary Johnston
Miss Johnston's most successful historical novel, a romance glowing with
imagination, adventure, and surging passions. The stormy days of Queen
Elizabeth live again in this powerful tale of the "witch" and her lover.
"A well-told and effective story, the most artistic that Miss Johnston
has written."--_New York Sun._
