By Will Garland. This is a powerful story, and one with an object. The vital question of lynching is its theme, and arguments on both sides of the subject are ably set forth. The author has written with spirit and drawn his characters with firm and clear strokes. It is original, exciting, and shows clearly the true position of the negro in the south, in an unprejudicial manner. It is a great book. Cloth bound.

CONGRESSMAN HARDIE.
By Courtney Wellington. A self-made man, and a thorough democrat like Congressman Hardie, will always be an interesting character, and one that appeals to all genuine Americans. The romance pervading the pages of the book is a delicate one, and skilfully interwoven with the various political events. The heroine is an original conception on the part of the writer, and we see her in some phases of city life not before portrayed in romance. Cloth bound.

AMY WARREN.
By A. Sydney Logan. Author of “Not on the Chart.” The appeal of this story lies in its naturalness. The hero, Harold Littleton, is not an impossible conception, but a real man of flesh and blood, faults and virtues. A new phase of American country life is also set forth with great fidelity. The worth of this book to the average reader is in the immediate refreshment and absolute change of ideas he can get by opening its pages anywhere. It contains some fine imaginative work and has heroic love for its theme. Cloth bound, gilt top.

KATHARINE BARRY.
By Harry Hughes. The sacrifice of sentiment to religion is always a fascinating topic. In the case of this novel, it is particularly so, because of the earnestness and evident sincerity of the devoted young girl. She was only a farmer’s daughter, but she passed through most extraordinary experiences, even to being the medium of psychic-phenomena. It is a most interesting book. Cloth bound, gilt top.
