boys are a delight, and the recollections they will awaken in the mind of any man will cause him to congratulate himself for having read the book. IN OUR TOWN Illustrated--Cloth--12mo--$1.50 Mr. White suggests Barrie more than any other living writer. His new book does for the daily life of a modern Kansas town just what Barrie has done for a Scotch town in "A Window in Thrums." "It is 'Boyville' grown up; better because more skilfully and deftly done; riper, because 'Bill' is a bigger boy now than he was five years ago, and more human. No writer to-day handles the small town life to compare with White, and this is the best book he has yet done."--_Los Angeles Herald._ STRATAGEMS AND SPOILS Illustrated--Cloth--12mo--$1.50 There are hours and days and long years in the lives of men and women wherein strong passions are excited and great human interests are at stake. The ambition for power, the greed for money, the desire to win the game, the hunger for fame, parental love, anger, friendship, hate, and revenge--the primitive passions that move men and the world powerfully--certainly these deserve as important a place in the chronicles of the human animal as does the mating instinct. It is with this idea in mind that Mr. White has set the stories in this volume in the field of American politics, where every human emotion finds free play. THE REAL ISSUE Cloth--12mo--$1.25 "It pulsates with humor, interest, passionate love, adventures, pathos--every page is woven with threads of human nature, life as we know it, life as it is, and above it all a spirit of righteousness, true piety, and heroic patriotism. These inspire the author's genius and fine literary quality, thrilling the reader with tenderest emotion, and holding to the end his unflagging, absorbing interest."--_The Public Ledger_, Philadelphia.
