the slope Of yonder hill."--_The Deserted Cabin_ THE ALICE HARRIMAN COMPANY 542 FIFTH AVENUE NEW YORK _and_ SEATTLE 318 DENNY BUILDING Lyrics of Fir and Foam _By_ ALICE ROLLIT COE A beautiful book in every sense of the word. A most attractive souvenir of the Puget Sound country. The lyrics are destined to a high place in the literature of the West. THE DESERTED CABIN How desolate it stands upon the slope Of yonder hill; the vacant windows stare; No curtain sways; no eager welcome waits From smiling faces there. The path is overgrown, and through the grass, Self-sown, the pansies from their border stray; And thick athwart the door the ivy shade Grows deeper day by day. And such my life since you have left; the rain Unheeded falls, the sun shines as of old, But lingers not in all the dreary rooms To touch your hair to gold. And yet, a little vine of memory Clings round the doorway where your garments swept;-- Close to the threshold where your footfall passed, Forget-me-nots have crept. _Decorated board, $1.25. Library edition, cloth, $1.50. Inlaid leather and Japanese hand embroidery edition, $3.50. (Illustrated) Postage 10 cents_ THE ALICE HARRIMAN COMPANY 542 FIFTH AVENUE NEW YORK _and_ SEATTLE 318 DENNY BUILDING THE MASTER ROAD _By_ CARLIN EASTWOOD Gratia Drexler, wealthy, socially elect, obeys an impulse toward expression leading her to active settlement work in the slums. Blindly treading her sweet way, she set in motion forces whose action and reaction on her and on Hartley Taine is herein told with a repression admirable in its resultant heart-grip and dramatic tenseness. The reader will _live every hour_ of happiness and grief, pain and joy portrayed with such sure touch. T H E M A S T E R R O A D will be a greater play than "Salvation Nell." Dramatic rights secured by America's leading playwright and producer. Sure to have a tremendous success. _Illustrated, $1.35 net; Postage 10 cents_ THE ALICE HARRIMAN COMPANY 542 FIFTH AVENUE NEW YORK _and_ SEATTLE 318 DENNY BUILDING _The_ SUPERINTENDENT _By_ IRENE WELCH GRISSOM _New Characters, Scenes and Theme_ [Illustration] A strong story of the Sawmill Country in Western Washington.
