Gentlemen: It gives me keen pleasure to testify once more to the
excellence of your pianos.
Since my first visit to this country eight years ago, my
admiration for these noble instruments has increased with each
successive tour.
The instruments I have used this year not only represent the most
perfect examples of the piano maker’s art, but fulfill every
imaginable requirement from the point of view of both pianist and
audience, and are the most superbly beautiful instruments that I
know.

The House of the Dawn
By MARAH ELLIS RYAN
Exquisite beauty of style, rich descriptive passages, so filled
with melody that they read like wonderful prose poems, mark this
brilliant tale of Spanish Mexico by Marah Ellis Ryan.
Essentially, however, is it a romance—a romance of unusual
quality—of young love and courage. The love of one noble mind for
another. The courage, born of high principle that dares all for
freedom and righteousness. _Illustrated by Hanson Booth. Crown
8vo._

Indian Blankets and Their Makers
By GEORGE WHARTON JAMES
One of the most interesting artistic expressions of native
American life is the Indian blanket. The present volume, written
by an expert on Indian life and art, and beautifully and
faithfully illustrated, is a full and adequate guide to the whole
of this little known field. Mr. James’ volume should give the
Indian blanket a status among art collectors similar to that of
the Oriental rug. _With color and half-tone illustrations. Large

Golden Poems (India Paper Edition)
By FRANCIS F. BROWNE
It is more than thirty years since the first edition of “Golden
Poems” appeared. Immediate success was at once accorded it, and
every passing year has found this favorite collection of “What is
good in poetry” more firmly established in popular favor.
It has been found worthy of the dignity of a special India paper
edition, suitable alike for a traveling companion, and a
beautiful gift.

Playing With Love and The Prologue to Anatol
By ARTHUR SCHNITZLER
“Anatol” has been spoken of as the comedy of Light Love, but
“Liebelei” is its tragedy. If it is not Schnitzler’s ripest
achievement, it is so far his finest play. Had he written nothing
else, his fame would be secure, for there is among modern plays
none with a deeper human note, none with less of false
emotionalism. _12mo._

Masters of English Literature
By E. W. CHUBB
Professor Chubb’s studies of Chaucer, Shakespeare, Milton,
Dryden, Swift, Pope, Johnson, Burns, Byron, Shelley, Keats,
Wordsworth, Scott, Dickens, Thackeray, George Eliot, Carlyle,
Ruskin, Tennyson, and Browning, are marked by the understanding
that comes of deep interest and long study, by independence of
judgment, and vigorous expression. He has chosen his subjects to
illustrate the eight great movements in English Literature, and
the plan of the work, as well as the manner in which it has been
carried out, will commend the volume to all students. The
definite purpose, comprehensive view, searching analysis, and
attractive exposition of the studies will impress all readers.

Daylight Reveals
To All Men Goodyear Tire Supremacy
Light on the tire question leads men inevitably to the Goodyear
No-Rim-Cut tire.
It has led hundreds of thousands to them. Every month it leads
many thousands more. This has gone on until Goodyears outsell any
other tire that’s built.
Light—which means information—shows true quality in Goodyears. It
is based on exclusive features. We spend fortunes on
trouble-savers found in no other tire.
Rim-cutting is ended by one of them—by our exclusive No-Rim-Cut
feature.
Blow-outs due to wrinkled fabric are ended by our “On-Air” cure.
That exclusive process costs us $450,000 yearly.
Loose tread risk is reduced 60 per cent by a patent method we
alone employ.
Punctures and skidding are combated, as in no other tire, by our
tough, double-thick All-Weather tread.
For Comfort’s Sake
These things mean safety, sturdiness, less cost per mile, less
trouble. They combat the greatest tire faults in the best ways
known.
Remember them. Some day—for comfort’s sake if for nothing
else—you are bound to adopt these tires.
Do it now. For winter tires, our All-Weather tread is sufficient
inducement. Any dealer will supply you.

A Novel of pure Delight
Second Large Edition
Nancy the Joyous
By Edith Stow
“For those who enjoy bright, wholesome fiction,” says The Denver
News, “is recommended ‘Nancy the Joyous.’” Readers are saying the
same. Nancy the Joyous is the object of an unsolicited
reader-campaign of friend-to-friend commendation. Here is a book
whose genuine human heart-appeal—its very simplicity and lack of
artificial climax—touches the reader who likes to _know_ his
fiction people.

A Big Book—A Strong Book
The New Mr. Howerson
By Opie Read
Even ardent admirers of Opie Read in the past were hardly
prepared for a work of the force and virility of “The New Mr.
Howerson.” Without a doubt it is his best work. It is a book
American readers cannot and will not ignore. It has qualities of
climax and suspense, of vital action and forceful personalities,
linked with those inimitable Read characteristics, whimsicality
and humor. The book will live.

TWO NOTABLE NEW BOOKS

_The First Phase_
[FROM THE ASSASSINATION OF THE ARCHDUKE TO THE FALL OF
ANTWERP.] WITH NEW MAPS
AT ALL
BOOKSHOPS
$1.25 net
By FRANK H. SIMONDS
of The New York Evening Sun
This is the first real history of what has actually happened
since the great War began. There have been books a-plenty dealing
with the underlying causes and ambitions, and with the Europe of
July, 1914.
This book is not one of them; it deals specifically with the
first phase of the War—from the murder of the Austrian Archduke
to the fall of Antwerp. It traces the course of the different
armies—English, German, French, Austrian, and Belgian—in language
at once simple, clear, and vigorous; shows you what moves they
have made and why they have made them; by what plan of campaign
each hoped to achieve success and what the measure of that
success has been. There are numerous simple maps specially
prepared to make clearer the military operations.
Frank H. Simonds’ editorial comments on the War, as they have
appeared in The New York Evening Sun, have attracted nation-wide
attention. No one has better succeeded in showing people what the
fighting is all about. Here is his book. The publisher hopes to
follow it later with other volumes dealing with succeeding phases
of the War.
DRIFT AND MASTERY
AN ATTEMPT TO DIAGNOSE THE CURRENT UNREST
AT ALL
BOOKSHOPS
$1.50 net
By WALTER LIPPMANN
Author of “A Preface to Politics”
This is a book at once comprehensive, shrewd, vigorous,
searching, and interesting—with always a saving humor. In the
course of sixteen chapters, Mr. Lippmann discusses practically
all the more important problems of our political, social, and
economic life, and the factors that have brought about that
curious unrest everywhere so noticeable.
In one paper he shows that we are accustomed to methods in
business that we would not for a moment tolerate in politics. In
another he submits Woodrow Wilson to an analysis that seems to
get under the man’s very skin. He analyzes proposed panaceas for
our ills (as well as the ills themselves) and show why they won’t
work. In “A Note on the Woman’s Movement” he explains with
crystal clearness what it is all about.
But Mr. Lippmann is a great deal more than a brilliant
iconoclast—he deals not only with the signs and cause of the
present unrest, but with the order which is emerging from it.
