THE BRAND
_A Story of the Flathead Reservation_
_By_ THERESE BRODERICK
This first novel by a new writer is worth reading. One feels, as they
read, as if he, too, were living the untrammeled life of Cattleland.
EXTRACTS
It is evident the author felt the fascination of the mountains and
the wide plains of the west, and most of the best pages of the book
are those in which she infuses the written word with their
charm.--_N. Y. Times_.
The descriptions are seldom equalled and the plot is well
developed. "The Brand" will rank as one of the best novels of
recent years.--_Western News_.

EXTRACTS
"The Brand" is instinct with the romantic spirit of the west. It
will be read with interest to the end.--_Oregonian_.
"The Brand" is splendidly written and is better than "The
Virginian."--_Kalispell Bee_.
"The Brand" is good, refreshing and wholesome. It takes me back to
God's country.--_B. E. Wiley, M.D., London, Eng._
The Indian Agent who "hates Injuns," and the Scotch Blackfoot hero are
new in fiction but not in the West. Every review has been good.
_Illustrated_. $1.50; _postage_, 10 _cents_

_The_ TEMPTATION OF ST. ANTHONY
_By_ GUSTAVE FLAUBERT
Translated by LAFCADIO HEARN Introduction by ELIZABETH BISLAND
This translation of the great French masterpiece, which has been called
"The Epic of the Human Soul's Search for Truth," was recently discovered
among Lafcadio Hearn's posthumous papers. The whole tendency of Hearn's
tastes fitted him especially of all writers to turn that masterpiece
into its true English equivalent.
The tortured Saint is whirled by vertiginous visions through cycles of
man's efforts to know why? whence? whither? He assists at the terrifying
rites of Mithra, the prostrations of serpent-worshippers of fire, of
light, of the Greek's deified forces of nature, of the Northern
enthronement of brute force and war. Plunges into every heresy and
philosophy, sees the orgies, the flagellations, the self-mutilations,
the battles and furies of sects, each convinced it has found the answer
to the Great Question. His experiences startlingly reproduce the
scientific and spiritual researches of the man of to-day.
