By Miss JANE ADDAMS, Hull-House, Chicago
The Newer Ideals of Peace
12mo, cloth, leather back, $1.25 net; by mail, $1.35
“A clean and consistent setting forth of the utility of labor as against the waste of war, and an exposition of the alteration of standards that must ensue when labor and the spirit of militarism are relegated to their right places in the minds of men.”—Chicago Tribune.
“It is given to but few people to have the rare combination of power of insight and of interpretation possessed by Miss Addams. The present book shows the same fresh virile thought, and the happy expression which has characterized her work ... There is nothing of namby-pamby sentimentalism in Miss Addams’s idea of the peace movement. The volume is most inspiring and deserves wide recognition.”—Annals of the American Academy.
“No brief summary can do justice to Miss Addams’s grasp of the facts, her insight into their meaning, her incisive estimate of the strength and weakness alike of practical politicians and spasmodic reformers, her sensible suggestions as to woman’s place in our municipal housekeeping, her buoyant yet practical optimism.”—Examiner.
Democracy and Social Ethics
12mo, cloth, leather back, $1.25 net; by mail, $1.35
“Its pages are remarkably—we were about to say refreshingly—free from the customary academic limitations...; in fact, are the result of actual experience in hand-to-hand contact with social problems.
“The result of actual experience in hand-to-hand contact with social problems ... No more truthful description, for example, of the ‘boss’ as he thrives to-day in our great cities has ever been written than is contained in Miss Addams’s chapter on ‘Political Reform.’... The same thing may be said of the book in regard to the presentation of social and economic facts.”—Review of Reviews.
“The book is startling, stimulating, and intelligent”—Philadelphia Ledger.
An Unusually Interesting Book
The Book of Woman’s Power
With an Introduction by IDA M. TARBELL
Decorated cloth, 16mo, $1.25 net; by mail, $1.35
Also in limp leather, $1.75 net; by mail, $1.85
“Whether the reader favors votes for women or not, ‘The Book of Woman’s Power’ will make a particular appeal to all interested in that subject.”—Ohio State Journal.
“It is a well-made book; the purpose of it is uplifting, and the contents are certainly of the highest class. It is a book good to read, and full of instruction for every one who wishes to pursue this theme.”—Salt Lake Tribune.
Miss MOLLY ELLIOT SEAWELL’S
The Ladies’ Battle
Cloth, 12mo, $1.00 net; by mail $1.10
“Her reasoning is clear and the arguments she presents are forcibly put ... a racy little book, logical and convincing.”—Boston Globe.
“The book is one which every woman, whatever her views, ought to read. It has no dull pages.”—Record-Herald, Chicago.
“Miss Seawell treats a subject of universal interest soberly and intelligently. She deserves to be widely read.”—Boston Daily Advertiser.
“The clearest and the most thorough little treatise on the theme of woman suffrage.”—Chicago Inter-Ocean.
Wage-Earning Women
By ANNIE MARION MacLEAN
Professor of Sociology in Adelphi College.
Cloth, leather back, 12mo, $1.25 net; by mail $1.35
“The chapters give glimpses of women wage-earners as they toil in different parts of the country. The author visited the shoeshops, and the paper, cotton, and woollen mills of New England, the department stores of Chicago, the garment-makers’ homes in New York, the silk mills and potteries of New Jersey, the fruit farms of California, the coal fields of Pennsylvania, and the hop industries of Oregon. The author calls for legislation regardless of constitutional quibble, for a shorter work-day, a higher wage, the establishment of residential clubs, the closer coöperation between existing organizations for industrial betterment.”—Boston Advertiser.
Making Both Ends Meet: The Income and Outlay of New York Working Girls
By SUE AINSLIE CLARK AND EDITH WYATT
Illustrated, cloth, gilt top, 12mo, 270 pp., $1.50 net; by mail, $1.60
“Gives a vivid picture of the way the ‘other half’ lives, the half that is ground down by overwork, lack of home comfort and of recreation. So powerful are the facts presented that the very simplicity of their narration rouses the reader to the desperate need of safeguarding the girl workers in our cities against exhausting mental and physical demands.”—Continent.
“The point of view of the book is constructive throughout, and it is safe to say that it will be for a long time, both for the practical worker and for the scientific student, the authoritative work in this field.”—Detroit News.
“It is a recital of facts that makes one’s heart and soul shrink up and grow small for pity and helplessness to help.”—Lexington Herald.
Some Ethical Gains through Legislation
By FLORENCE KELLEY
Secretary of the National Consumers’ League.
Cloth, leather back, 12mo, $1.25 net; by mail, $1.35
This interesting volume has grown out of the author’s experience in philanthropic work in Chicago and New York, and her service for the State of Illinois and for the Federal Government in investigating the circumstances of the poorer classes, and conditions in various trades.
The value of the work lies in information gathered at close range in a long association with, and effort to improve the condition of, the very poor.
The author is not only a lawyer of large experience in Chicago, but has served that city, the State of Illinois, and the Federal Government in many investigations of conditions among various trades, and in reference to the circumstances of the poorer classes.
Among the topics here treated are:
The Right to Childhood.
Interpretations of the Right to Leisure.
The Right of Women to the Ballot.
The Rights of Purchasers and the Courts.
The Women of America
By ELIZABETH McCRACKEN
Cloth, 12mo, $1.50 net; by mail, $1.61
“A work the immediate need of which is felt everywhere. It treats of the American woman’s economic condition and of women workers in various fields. It can be recommended to every one who is interested in the grave problems involved by the new and untoward conditions of women’s work.”—N. Y. Evening Sun.

[11] This “Conference on the Care of Dependent Children” was called by President Roosevelt, and met, January 25 and 26, 1909, in the White House. Two hundred and twenty men and women,—experts in the care of children, from every state in the Union,—met, and proposed, among other things, the establishment of a Federal Child’s Bureau. Thus far Congress has done nothing to carry out the proposal. (Charities and the Commons, Vol. XXI, 643, 644; 766-768; 968-990.) [Tr.]
[12] The “mothers” hold special congresses in the United States to discuss educational and public questions. (Mothers’ Congresses.)

[40] This right is possessed by women in Scotland and Ireland also.
[41] This is in direct conflict with the statute (13 Vict., c. 21, sec. 4) providing that women enjoy all those rights from which they are not expressly excluded.

[56] The last two arguments are easily refuted.
[57] Woman never reaches her majority; she must always have a male representative.
[58] The husband still remains the guardian of the wife. To-day the wife controls her personal earnings, but merely as long as they are in cash; whatever she buys with them falls into the control of the husband.

[66] Compare similar proceedings in the United States and England.
[67] Since Switzerland contains a preponderance of the Germanic element, it will be considered with the Germanic countries.
[68] In Geneva and Lausanne the men exerted every effort to exclude women from the typographical trade. The prohibition of night work made this easy. The same result will follow in the railroad and postal service. Therefore in the Swiss woman’s rights movement there are some that are opposed to laws for the protection of women laborers.
[69] Industrial training was promoted chiefly by the “Lette-House,” founded in Berlin in 1865 by President Lette and his wife.
[70] In Germany there are one million domestic servants.

[86] Miss Chauvin made a similar request of the French Chamber of Deputies; as we have seen, her request was granted. Dr. Popelin did not make her request of the Belgian Chamber of Deputies, which had not a Republican majority. Dr. Popelin may have considered such a step hopeless.

The total amount of spirits consumed was 40,887,509 vedros (1 vedro is 3.25 gallons), which is an increase of 600,185 vedros over the amount consumed during the same months of the preceding year. These figures correspond also to the government’s income from its monopoly on spirits; this was 327,795,312 rubles (a ruble is worth 51.5 cents), an increase of 3,745,836 rubles over the same months of the preceding year.
