CONJUROR'S HOUSE, By Stewart Edward White
Dramatized under the title of "THE CALL OF THE NORTH."
Illustrated from Photographs of Scenes from the Play.
_Conjuror's House_ is a Hudson Bay trading port where the Fur Trading Company tolerated no rivalry. Trespassers were sentenced to "La Longue Traverse"--which meant official death. How Ned Trent entered the territory, took _la longue traverse_, and the journey down the river of life with the factor's only daughter is admirably told. It is a warm, vivid, and dramatic story, and depicts the tenderness and mystery of a woman's heart.
With illustrations by N. C. Wyeth, and beautiful inlay cover.
A series of spirited tales emphasizing some phase of the life of the ranch, plains and desert, and all, taken together, forming a single sharply-cut picture of life in the far Southwest. All the tonic of the West is in this masterpiece of Stewart Edward White.
THE MYSTERY, By Stewart Edward White and Samuel Hopkins Adams
For breathless interest, concentrated excitement and extraordinarily good storytelling on all counts, no more completely satisfying romance has appeared for years. It has been voted the best story of its kind since _Treasure Island_.
LIGHT-FINGERED GENTRY. By David Graham Phillips
Mr. Phillips has chosen the inside workings of the great insurance companies as his field of battle; the salons of the great Fifth Avenue mansions as the antechambers of his field of intrigue; and the two things which every natural, big man desires, love and success, as the goal of his leading character. The book is full of practical philosophy, which makes it worth careful reading.
THE SECOND GENERATION, By David Graham Phillips
With illustrations by Fletcher C. Ramson, and inlay cover.
"It is a story that proves how, in some cases, the greatest harm a rich man may do his children, is to leave them his money. A strong, wholsome story of contemporary American life--thoughtful, well-conceived and admirably written; forceful, sincere, and true; and intensely interesting."--_Boston Herald._
