 "And now, mine own deere Son, since ye 'Term of thy Indenture drawetb to a Close, 
 and thou wilt soon, as befitteth Master Printer, sette up Shoppe of thine own, once 
 again wolde I counsel thee concerning ye Mysterie of our Craft : 
 
 "A likelie Lad thou art, and a well-skilled, and I foresee that thou wilt imprint 
 a-manie Bokes of diverse Kinds, aye, and Pamphlets and Broadsides, too, and mayhap 
 Mottoe Gardes, quaintly lettered and coloured right curiouslie. 'This is well; for, whether 
 thou print est ye gravest Worde of sober Sage, or ye lightest Jeste or Rime, thou mayest 
 take Assurance that this, our Worlde, hath ample need for both Wisdom and Mirth, 
 aye, and Beautie to boot. Heed onlie that there be no Harm in aught thou printest. 
 Grave or Merrie, let all that comet h of thy Presse be for ye Betterment of Mankind. 
 
 "Soe for ye Matter ; now e for ye Manner in which thou shall order thy work: 
 
 "Bear ever in Minde that thy Craft is a Right Worthie Craft and one in no-wise to 
 be dishonoured. See then that thy 'Types bee ever deftly cut, thy Paper or Parchment of ye 
 Beste, thy Imprintyng cleane, clear & true, thy Pictures neatly graven, thy Colours rightly 
 chosen and well laid on\ thy Bindyng both Staunch and Comelie and proper to its Boke. 
 
 " Ah, what a sorrie, haplesse 'Thyng is a Virtuous Boke, ill-made and ill-bound! 
 Naked 'Truth may be well enough ; but if Falsehood be faire-arrayed and "Truth be 
 foully clad, which will Men regard? 
 
 "Mark me further : Rememberest thou how I didde bring home to Meat, worthie 
 Master Overbeck, and how our good Dame didde look upon him with great Disfavour ? 
 And for why ? Because, whilst hys Discourse was both wise and witty, yet were hys 
 Haires unkempt, hys Handes unwashen, hys Cloake and Doublet soiled and torn. Tea. 
 And didde not our Dame, contrarie-wise, give blithe Wellcome to that sad Runagate,

 and worse, yet was hys Person seemlie and hys Raiment faire and well-befittyng hys 
 Teares and Station ? 
 
 "Verilie, if we wolde have our Friendes that doe converse with us but an Houre at a 
 'Time, our Familiars that doe abide with us perchance a Night e at most, if we wolde 
 have these ever neat and fresh to View, how much more sholde we desire unfailyng

 Business that naughte shall leave thy Presse, be it ye hughest Volumn or ye smallest 
 Carde, but what shall bee as beauteous, perfect and cunnynglie wrought as thou canst

 REIGHTS OF TRUTH: AS THE MERCHANTMEN OF 
 TYRE BROUGHT TO KING SOLOMON THE TREAS- 
 URES OF ALL THE COASTS OF THE ANCIENT 
 -* WORLD,SO DO MODERN THINKERS BRING US YET 
 RICHER CARGOES OF COMFORT, ASSURANCE, STRENGTH 
 AND LOVE FROM THE EXHAUSTLESS STORES OF THE 
 MOST WONDERFUL OF BOOKS. TODAY, BIBLICAL INTER- 
 PRETATION HAS GIVEN PLACE TO BIBLICAL CITATION, 
 FOR THE BIBLE EXPLAINS ITSELF. ITS GREAT TRUTHS, 
 SIMPLY PRESENTED, ARE SUFFICIENT FOR ALL NEEDS. 
 
 BLESSINGS: BASIC TRUTHS IN BIBLE MOSAICS, compiled by AGNESS GREENE 
 FOSTER. Strength and comfort for all is the message of this little volume. The 
 deep and, in the truest sense, practical philosophy of the Bible is here devel- 
 oped in sequences of selections from that grand Book which was made for man. 
 Blessings, Promises, Commands, Admonitions and Answers are the titles of the 
 five chapters, each chapter being a mosaic of biblical selections arranged to form 
 coherent essays illustrating vital truths of life. The book is printed on fine 
 Normandy vellum in two colors. Blashfield's beautiful "Christmas Bells" 
 serves as a frontispiece; and the several chapters are beautified by reproduc- 
 tions of Plockhorst's " Christ Blessing Little Children," Hofmann's " Christ 
 Among the Doctors" and "Christ in Gethsemane," "St. John the Baptist" by 
 Andrea del Sarto, and " The Kneeling Samuel " by Reynolds.

 BIBLE MOSAICS: Arranged by AGNESS GREENE FOSTER. Four chapters of 
 BLESSINGS are here presented as individual books, each with its frontispiece, 
 under the titles, PROMISES, COMMANDS, ADMONITIONS and ANSWERS. 
 
 STUDENTS' EDITION : Bound in flexible Strathmore Japan in Strathmore envelope, each 50 cents net. 
 JORDAN EDITION: Bound in flexible suede, boxed, each $1.25 net. 
 
 THE WORKS OF JESUS : CHRIST'S HEALING ACTS, cited from the Bible by 
 EDNA S. LITTLE. Christ the worker, Christ the healer, Christ the doer of deeds 
 and comforter of men. What Jesus wrought is set forth in this compilation 
 which assembles and literally restates those acts of the Founder of Christianity 
 recorded in the New Testament; and to the record is appended the Sermon 
 on the Mount as the recognized epitome of undoubted Christian doctrine.

 This book, which has been found so invaluable by church workers, and so great 
 a source of comfort to many readers, is yet appealingly frank and simple in its 
 plan. It is the record. Nothing is added, nothing is taken away. The noble 
 head of Christ from Leonardo da Vinci's " Last Supper" has been chosen as a 
 frontispiece, and an appropriate design is paneled on the olive-tinted cover.

 CLEASANT RECORDS: TO NO PRINTED BOOKS DO 
 WE TURN WITH MORE PLEASURE THAN TO OUR 
 OWN WRITTEN CHAPTERS ON LIFE, LOVE AND 
 FRIENDSHIP. AND ESPECIALLY AS WE PLAY A 
 PART IN THE LIVES OF OUR FRIENDS, NO GIFT TO A 
 FRIEND IS MORE WELCOME AND APPROPRIATE THAN 
 A WELL-MADE RECORD BOOK IN WHICH MAY BE PRE- 
 SERVED THE NOTES, SIGNATURES, PICTURES & OTHER 
 MEMENTOES THAT RECALL HAPPY DAYS. 
 
 WEDDING BOOK: THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT, by ROBERT WILSON 
 HYDE. Hail to the Bride! Is there ever a happy bride who does not delight 
 to recall every incident of her wedding ? The Wedding Book, with its graceful 
 humor, beautiful illustrations and embellishments and fine, durable binding, 
 will hold for her, as if laid in lavender, all memories of the happy day when 
 she was the most important person in her world. 
 
 "This is the House that Jack Built. 
 This is Sir Jack of High Renown, 
 You've heard of him I'll wager a crown, 
 That built the House that Jack Built. 
 This is the Maid of the Dainty Gown 
 That captured Jack of High Renown 
 And lived in the House that Jack Built." 
 
 So the merry rhyme runs on from page to page, dealing with the bride, the 
 bridegroom, and their future home, the bridesmaids, the bridesmen, the day, 
 the church, the. priest, the "parchment" (which means the marriage certificate), 
 the kith and kin, aunts, uncles, cousins and all, the friends, the gifts all classi- 
 fied, the feast and the toasts and songs with which it was glorified, all with the 
 amplest room for recording the details under these and other heads. A broad 
 
4 - Presents in Print - With Some in Color & Gold 
 
 panel design, gorgeous in many colors and gold, showing all the personages and 
 properties of this great domestic drama, runs continuously along the upper part 
 of the doubled pages; and the pictures are certainly none the less attractive 
 because the characters are portrayed in the splendid costumes and appointments 
 of the Middle Ages. Nothing has been spared to make the book a gift that 
 any bride will be glad to treasure and proud to show in future years. It is of 
 ample size, ioxn^ inches, as its generous purpose demands, and the heavy 
 covers are embossed with an appropriate design.

 THE CRAFTSMAN GUEST BOOK: To HOLD THE BRIGHT CHRONICLES 
 OF HOSPITALITY. Designed by ROBERT WILSON HYDE; verses by ARTHUR 
 GUITERMAN. Perhaps a friend has just moved into a new home or is giving a 
 "house-warming" and the occasion demands a gift; perhaps a friend has enter- 
 tained you in his home, in city or country, and a graceful acknowledgment to 
 your host or hostess would seem to be in order; then the GUEST BOOK, beau- 
 tiful in construction and with the very spirit of hospitality pervading every 
 page, will fill the need of the hour as no other present can. The two-page 
 frontispiece is a marvel of modern color work. There are one hundred and 
 twelve pages of heavy French cream vellum with decorations in dark green, 
 arranged to receive the guest's own record, name, address, date of visit and 
 "remarks"; and at the head of each page is a greeting verse from somebody 
 or something in the house, so that wherever a guest opens the book he will 
 find his welcome. Everything and everybody, from the Carriage-Stone before 
 the gate to the Weather-Vane on the roof; from the Hostess at the door to 
 the Canary in the cage have their word of greeting in couplet or quatrain until 
 the House-Spirit, at night, concludes with the Blessing of the House: 
 
 "Unseen I brood, the Blessing old to give: 
 
 ' Sleep soundly. Wake in vigor. Gladly live.' ' 
 
 There are also pages of mounting-paper for photographs of guests and like 
 souvenirs, and drawing-paper to receive the sketches of artist friends. It is a 
 volume of imposing dimensions, 15^x11^ inches, well worthy of its destined 
 place on the table of the living-room or library; for it is truly a triumph of 
 bookmaking, unapproached in its field.

 THE REMEMBRANCE GUEST BOOK. Designed by ROBERT WILSON 
 HYDE; verses by ARTHUR GUITERMAN. This attractive volume reproduces the 
 CRAFTSMAN GUEST BOOK in design, construction and contents, but is planned 
 as a smaller volume to make it suitable for more general use, its dimensions 
 being but 8^xn^ inches. The same design in full color is reproduced for 
 the frontispiece, and the same series of gracious hospitalities appear at the head 
 of each page, rubricated in the border designs of green and black in which are 
 spaces for the record of guests. Pages are reserved for the artist friend to 
 show his handiwork, and others appear upon which to attach some souvenir, a 
 photograph or other memento, and a section of stubs is also provided for the 
 convenient insertion of letters and documents. The conventional title page is 
 notable by its absence from both editions, the publishers being content with a 
 modest colophon and, instead, supplying in the front of the volume a rubricated 
 page upon which the owner's name may be engrossed. THE REMEMBRANCE 
 GUEST BOOK is shapely, complete and convenient and should prove just the 
 right book for many a home.

 THE GIRLS' COLLEGE RECORD: A TREASURY FOR MEMORIES OF STU- 
 DENT DAYS AND WAYS. Arranged by VIRGINIA WOODSON FRAME. Here is 
 the best of gifts for a college girl, for it is something that will hold a place in 
 her daily life; a record of the four years of undergraduate life. It is printed in 
 color with full-page cartoons, topical decorations and the right sort of verses. 
 
 CAMPUS EDITION : Bound in gray crash buckram, stamped design, boxed, $i . 50 net. IVY EDITION : 
 Bound in suede leather boards, boxed, $3.50 net. 
 
 THE AUTO GUEST BOOK: FOR DETAILS OF MOTOR TRIPS, TRIALS AND 
 TRIUMPHS. By ETHEL WATTS-MUMFORD GRANT and RICHARD BUTLER 
 GLAENZER. " Though thou swear by thine auto seven times, the eighth thou 
 wilt swear at it," so saith Punbad the Railer, that dispenser of gasoline-scented 
 maxims in this book for all who enjoy auto rides whether as owners or guests. 
 The pages of rich toned paper, printed in two colors with elaborate humorous 
 decorations, are prepared to receive full accounts of motor excursions with all 
 their varied adventures and misadventures. Each book is enclosed in a red 
 box on which appears a gold cup, the "Trophy of the Chased."

 FROM DICTIONARY TO DIME NOVEL, MAY BE A

 HARDLY DEFINED QUALITIES OF CHARM THAT

 ESPECIALLY HOLIDAY GIFTS. THEY MAY BE BOOKS OF

 DIFFERENT TASTES REQUIRE; ONLY THEY MUST NOT BE

 IN LIGHTER VEIN : BUNDLES OF LAUGHTER IN QUIP AND ANECDOTE, gath- 
 ered by JOHN DE MORGAN. "Laughter untainted with bitterness is the best of 
 soul foods and tonics," wrote Miss Ethel Colson in a review of Mr. De Mor- 
 gan's book so laudatory that the jolly jester's face on the cover fairly blushed 
 in pleased embarrassment. But the book is truly good company for any one. 
 Imagine sitting down at table with Queen Elizabeth, and Bill Nye, and Dr. 
 Johnson, and Henry Ward Beecher, and Sir Arthur Sullivan and Bret Harte, 
 and, well, almost every one else you ever heard about, and listening to them 
 swapping their best yarns and experiences ! These stories were rescued by 
 Mr. De Morgan from all sorts of out-of-the-way places, and are not the kind 
 that everybody knows. Besides, as another critic says, this is " a good book to 
 read before dining out," for it is carefully indexed and will supply the speaker 
 and writer with plenty of effective illustrations.

 WEATHER OPINIONS: BITS OF WEATHER LORE WITH INTERLEAVES ON 
 WEATHER SUBJECTS. Compiled by JENNIE DAY HAINES. Fair or rainy? No 
 matter. Whatever the season, whether Old Probabilities sends zephyrs or 
 waterspouts, you '11 find something lively and appropriate to the occasion, quo- 
 tations, proverbs, weather rhymes, weather signs,' and cheerful weather phil- 
 osophy. The book is printed on cream Normandy vellum with green border 
 rules enclosing text and original decorations. Every now and then there are 
 interleaves of white paper with red border rules and black text, devoted to such 
 allied subjects as, The Clerk of the Weather, The Umbrella, Almanacs, The 
 Weather-Vane, Fans, Dog-Days, The Moon and the Weather, and Halcyon

 Days. A very pretty picture by Gordon Ross printed in delicate tints on 
 Japanese paper serves as a frontispiece. The new Weathercock Edition is sig- 
 nificantly bound in "flexible chameleon," the changeable parchment effect sym- 
 bolizing the notorious fickleness of the weather. The cover is lettered in red 
 and green and the book is enclosed in a red box upon which the cover design 
 is repeated.

 CHRISTMASSE TYDE: YULE-TIDE QUOTATIONS AND LITTLE ESSAYS. Com-

 Bough, Christmasse Eve, Ye Yule Log, Ye Christmasse Waytes, Ye Christmasse 
 Bells, Christmasse Day, Christmasse Carols, Christmasse Lullabies, Ye Was- 
 saile Bowie and all other subjects pertaining to the season even unto Twelfth 
 Night are treated with full justice under their proper headings. What else is 
 needed for Christmas reading, or for the school celebration? No book could 
 make a more beautiful or suitable Christmas gift than this, for it is printed in 
 old missal style, but the antique touch does not interfere with the perfect clear- 
 ness of the rich black text, and the strong headings enclosed in hand-made 
 rules of antique red stand out as though embossed on the creamy surface of 
 old Normandy vellum. The frontispiece, a Madonna and Child by Gordon 
 Ross, is printed in delicate tints on hand-made tissue from Japan. The change- 
 able parchment effect in the chameleon covers of the new Mistletoe Edition is 
 a pleasing novelty in bookbinding.

 THE SPINNERS' BOOK OF FICTION: TYPICAL TALES OF MODERN 
 WESTERN WRITERS, collected by THE BOOK COMMITTEE OF THE SPINNERS' CLUB. 
 This is the voice of the Far West. Here are tales by seventeen distinguished 
 California authors, illustrated in color from paintings by six prominent Cali- 
 fornia artists, and gathered by San Francisco's celebrated literary group, The 
 Spinners' Club. It is an ideal gift book of good tales, well told, perfectly printed 
 and interestingly bound and boxed. 
 
 Printed on fine, white, deckle-edge paper, with gilt top, and a medallion pifture on cover. Bound 
 in Spinners' linen, boxed, $2.00 net. 
 
 THE PRINCESS OF MANOA: WITH OTHER ROMANTIC TALES FROM THE 
 FOLK-LORE OF OLD HAWAII. By MRS. FRANK R. DAY. Legends of love and 
 heroism, tales of the Kanakas and their potent fire-goddess whose seat is in the 
 red-heart of their ever-smoldering volcano, are here presented for the delecta- 
 tion of all who take pleasure in well-told stories of a wild yet lovable race. The 
 book is printed and rubricated on a golden-brown paper that itself suggests the 
 tawny islanders of the Pacific, and the ten large illustrations by D. Howard 
 Hitchcock, with the effect of dark-toned photogravures tipped upon mounting 
 sheets, give a characteristic touch to a beautiful book that is quite certain to be 
 different from any other in the library.

 THE RAVEN: PREFACED BY THE PHILOSOPHY OF COMPOSITION. By EDGAR 
 ALLAN POE. How distinguished a niche Poe fills in the world's literature was 
 abundantly shown in the tributes to the weird genius of the unfortunate poet 
 at his recent centenary. Many have called THE RAVEN the greatest American 
 short poem, and the remarkable essay, THE PHILOSOPHY OF COMPOSITION, in 
 in which the poet describes in detail the construction of his masterpiece, is 
 perhaps his most striking contribution to the literature of critical analysis. The 
 poem with its commentary is published in a large quarto edition, printed on 
 Arches hand-made paper and liberally illustrated with full-page photogravures. 
 Each page has a rubricked initial and marginal decoration by Will Jenkins, 
 and the typography is all that could be desired. In the new Lenore Edition a 
 strangely pleasing effect suited to the nature of the poem is produced in the 
 shadow-board binding which shows ghostly traceries of leaves beneath the surface.

 THE MINISTRY OF BEAUTY: ETHICAL ESSAYS OF LOVE AND SERVICE. 
 By STANTON DAVIS KIRKHAM. It is easy to see that these thirteen clear, strong, 
 joyous essays are not the work of a closeted recluse, but of a man of action as 
 well as of thought, a man who knows the streets of the city, the wider world 
 of mountain, sea and desert, and the ways and hearts of men as well as the 
 printed page. He writes of Beauty, Life, Religion, Philosophy, The World- 
 Message, Work, Health, Happiness and other great essentials, never falling 
 into the error of "fine writing," but always uniting clearness and simplicity 
 with beauty of style. The book is perfectly printed on Cheltenham antique 
 deckle-edge paper. The new popular Starlight Edition is bound in gray with 
 the title stamped in gold, and a graceful illuminated selection affixed as a fron- 
 tispiece.

 QUATRAINS OF CHRIST. REVERENT VERSE OF RARE BEAUTY AND FEEL- 
 ING. By GEORGE CREEL. " Within and without a lovable book." So says 
 Richard Burton in The Bellman, agreeing with many other critics that Mr. 
 Creel's work is both Religion and Literature a rare combination. In perfect 
 verse in the melodious meter of the Ruba'iyat, Mr. Creel expresses the simple, 
 unquestioning, glorious faith of primitive Christianity. The workmanship is a 
 treat to the eye as the text is to the mind.

 S..THE SEA FOGS. By ROBERT Louis STEVENSON. That beautiful phenomenon 
 of the Pacific Coast, the sun-painted sea-fogs rolling in upon the mountains, is 
 vividly described by the modern master of plain English. The introduction is 
 by Thomas R. Bacon and the frontispiece by Albertine Randall Wheelan. 
 
 2. THE CASE OF SUMMERFIELD. By WILLIAM H. RHODES. When originally pub- 
 lished, in 1871 as a newspaper hoax, this fantastic yet realistic tale greatly 
 agitated timorous souls with its implied threat of impending destruction of the 
 world through- the demoniac discoverer of a startling chemical secret. Geraldine 
 Bonner supplies the introduction and Galen J. Perrett the frontispiece. 
 
 3. TENNESSEE'S PARTNER. By BRET HARTE. Of all Bret Harte's earliest and 
 best stories, there could be no more fitting selection than the strong pathetic 
 tale of a simple, whole-hearted friendship that no wrong-doing could break. 
 In his introduction William Dallam Armes tells the story of the original of 
 the hero of the tale. In the frontispiece Albertine Randall Wheelan finely 
 interprets one of the author's most striking passages. 
 
 4. A SON OF THE GODS and A HORSEMAN IN THE SKY. By AMBROSE BIERCE.

 noble men without bitterness. The introduction is by W. C. Morrow and the 
 frontispiece by Will Jenkins.

 interest demanded by children of all ages. Two little girls, bearing the sugges-

 THE LITTLE BROWN HEN HEARS THE SONG OF THE NIGHT-

 DRESSER, with a Foreword by MARGARET BEECHER WHITE. All the mellow 
 tenderness and inner truth characteristic of the most delightful tales of Hans 
 Christian Andersen warms and illumines these two charming little parables by 
 the author of "How to Find Happyland." They are tales of the kind that 
 children ask to hear again and again; for they have the needed touches of 
 quiet humor, the atmosphere of familiar scenes, and the message of each is 
 clearly conveyed in the story and not too obviously dragged in at the end. As 
 a gift, the book will delight any child with its external beauty, for the illustra- 
 tions by William T. Van Dresser are all that could be desired. It has just 
 been issued in a new popular form, the Harmony Edition, with flexible covers.

 IN THE OPEN : HAPPY-HEARTED NATURE TALKS OF A NATURE LOVER. By 
 STANTON DAVIS KIRKHAM. Of all the tales we love to hear, the most delight- 
 ful are those of things around us, of things that we know or may know if we 
 will but open our eyes and see. Such things Mr. Kirkham helps us to see and 
 to enjoy. Nothing escapes his eye and his trained intelligence. As Mr. Edwin 
 L. Shuman says in the Chicago Record-Herald, " Mr. Kirkham writes like a 
 poet, but he also observes like a scientist." And he writes of Signs of Spring, 
 Bird Life, Wild Gardens, Insect Lore, Pasture Stones, The Winter Woods, 
 Mountain, Forest and Sea all our common heritage with charm and interest. 
 The book is printed on English Esparto paper, and illustrated with a series of 
 remarkable photographs by Rudolf Eickemeyer and a wonderful colored frontis- 
 piece of wild geese winging across sunset clouds by Louis Agassiz Fuertes.

 THE CALL OF THE CITY: LIVELY CHAT ON THE DELIGHTS OF URBAN 
 LIFE. By CHARLES MULFORD ROBINSON. Like Charles Lamb in another cen- 
 tury, Mr. Robinson takes up the cudgels for the too often disparaged town, and 
 in a dozen winning essays tells of the fascination that, since walls were first 
 raised, has been drawing mankind toward the ringing streets. To quote the 
 Philadelphia Book News Monthly, "In his prose one feels the true heart-beat 
 of the city of the life which fascinates and, if rightly lived, ennobles those 
 who come in contact with it." The book is printed on Exeter white wove 
 paper and bound with a taste that recommends it as a presentation volume for 
 any lover of good essays. On the brown cover is an inlaid panel picture of 
 moonlit city roofs, giving a characteristic poetic touch.

Presents in Print - With Some in Color & Gold - 77 
 
 quaintly blended, is now necessary to an artistic education. There is nothing 
 coldly formal or scholastic about these treasures so prized by collectors. They 
 depict the intimate life of a people, and constitute the essentially national art 
 of a race that is unquestionably playing an important part in the development 
 of the world. The book is of itself an art-treasure, printed with a strong Jap- 
 anese effect on double-leaved Japan paper and illustrated with numerous 
 examples of the work of those old artists whose often romantic lives and 
 always notable productions the text describes and interprets.

 THE TOCSIN: A SPIRITED, ROMANTIC DRAMA OF THE RENAISSANCE. By 
 ESTHER BROWN TIFFANY. A brave, stirring romance of brisk action and heroic 
 climax is this little drama of fair Florence in the picturesque days of the 
 Medici. A romance it is indeed, and one that makes engrossing reading, for 
 the quick dialogue tells with more than the vividness of ordinary narrative the 
 tale of the loves of Lorenzo and Marianna, of the coquetry of beautiful Bianca 
 delle Torre, the self-sacrifice of saintly Sister Maddalena, and the wit, pleasant 
 worldliness and ultimate grand moral awakening of the courtly Abbot of San 
 Raffaello, who, even in his baser days, is always benevolent, ever a gentleman. 
 The book has, moreover, a freshness, a fervor, an honest inspiration that will 
 warm the hearts of all readers. The book is issued in a limited edition printed 
 on hand-made paper, with a frontispiece in photogravure after Michael Angelo's 
 " Dream of Life."

 CALIFORNIA AND OTHER SONNETS. By FANNY PURDY PALMER. A 
 timely and delightful little volume of Sonnets, a notable contribution to the 
 poetry of California. The opening sequence creates a scenic setting for the 
 main theme, summarizes the romantic past of California, and hints an impres- 
 sion of her social present. Single sonnets as, My Garden by the Sea, In a 
 Canyon, The Carmel Valley from the River's Mouth, are luminous with the 
 out-of-door atmosphere in which they are steeped. Monterey Cypress and 
 The Meadow-Lark may be named as highly finished word pictures. The 
 themes of the Post Meridiem Sonnets of Part II are in the nature of self- 
 revealing speculations upon Life, with a dramatic and personal element which 
 adds to their interest. The edition is limited to two hundred and fifty copies, 
 printed on hand-made paper in early English type.

 THE PHILOSOPHY OF HOPE: A COUNTERBLAST AGAINST FUTILE PES- 
 SIMISM. By DAVID STARR JORDAN. Militant optimism not weak good-na- 
 ture, but the optimism that justifies its faith by works, that toils and fights 
 for the realization of its ideals, this is the spirit upheld by Dr. Jordan in his 
 little book, already regarded as a classic in its field. His creed is a working 
 creed. It is the creed that must be held by all who achieve; for Despair wins 
 no battles, Pessimism is ever inglorious. Speaking of the true usefulness of 
 Dr. Jordan's work, an earnest critic in the Chicago Record-Herald says: "I 
 wish that the new plates of this little book might be worn out with repeated 
 printings of editions to go into the hands of every young cynic and old pessi- 
 mist in the land."

 unsparing controversialist, Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll was a man of composite 
 genius and broad humanity ; and in this work is presented his best and kindli- 
 est thought as well as his brightest and wittiest. No bitterness found a home 
 in the heart of the man who could say, " There is only one way to be happy, 
 and that is to make somebody else so."

 Separate chapters treat of the care of the skin, hair, nails, eyes, nose, ears, face, 
 mouth, teeth, hands, feet and torso, and include many recipes and hints ob- 
 tained, as Mrs. Potter tells in an interesting preface, from the beauties of many 
 lands during her brilliant career on the stage and world-wide travels. The book 
 has recently been issued in the popular Calypso Edition.

 practitioner of twenty-four years' standing, and his advice in regard to simple 
 methods of treatment, natural diet and the care of mothers and young children 
 is based upon long experience and unbiased observation. " The most vital 
 message of the book is a clear exposition of the ways and means by which pre- 
 ventable ills may be eliminated." Science of Health. There is no reason why 
 a book with a serious purpose should lack beauty, and this has been made 
 thoroughly attractive in neat binding with the Delia Robbia "Bambino" as a 
 frontispiece and cover design.

 the long finger of land that points to the Panama Canal the peninsula which, 
 he tells us, we occupied during the Mexican War, but, failing to recognize its 
 coming strategic importance, relinquished as "the tail-end of an earthquake."

 HOW TO TELL THE BIRDS FROM THE FLOWERS: A MANUAL 
 OF FLORNITHOLOGY FOR BEGINNERS. By ROBERT WILLIAMS WOOD. Not even 
 the most accomplished nature-faker could have distinguished a shorter and 
 uglier Bird from a Flower of Speech, before Professor Wood's astonishing work 
 convulsed the scientific world. 
 
 "The Parrot and the Carrot we may easily confound 
 They 're very much alike in looks and similar in sound ; 
 We recognize the Parrot by his clear articulation, 
 For Carrots are unable to engage in conversation." 
 
 With a skill both in description and in drawing (for he did the pictures, too), 
 worthy his dignity as professor of experimental physics at Johns Hopkins 
 University, the author thus teaches us the differences between the Bird and 
 the Burdock, the Clover and the Plover, the Rue and the Rooster, the Roc 
 and the Shamrock, creating one of the most original bits of humor that the 
 great American people have ever laughed at. The new edition comes in a

 been to him. Imagine what confusion there would be in the collection for the 
 Smithsonian Institution if the Collector was unable to distinguish between a 
 Doe and a Dodo, an Antelope and a Cantelope, a Pipe-fish from a Sea-gar, or 
 a P-cock from a Qjcumber, and this is positively the only book ever printed 
 that explains the differences. The bright box that holds the book is as cheerful

Presents in Print - With Some in Color & Gold - 23 
 
 of purely playful cynicism and kindly wit was altogether too valuable to have 
 its life limited to one brief year, have caused it to be made immortal ; that is, 
 it is now a perpetual calendar, good for all time. But it isn't a bit the worse 
 for that. It is full of clever quips and twisted proverbs like: 
 
 "Poets are born, not paid." 
 
 "Never strike a woman tell her she can't reason." 
 
 "It's a long love that has no turning." 
 
 It has the most surprising descriptions of the heavens during the different 
 months, and there never was a calendar that propounded to you the awful secret 
 of your lucky and unlucky days as accurately as this. Where else will you find 
 such practical rules of etiquette as: 
 
 "Never drink from your finger-bowl it contains only water." 
 "Don't leave your spoon in your cup work it up your sleeve." 
 
 Yes, it is the ideal gift for New Year's.

 droll stories that pass from mouth to mouth not only in Hindustan but in all 
 the bazaars of the Orient. 
 
 "Who cooked this rice?" 
 
 "Not I ! that Worthless Hound !" 
 "'T is very nice." 
 
 "Why yes I stirred it round ! " 
 
 They are rich in shrewd hits on human frailties, not unlike some of our own 
 sayings, but far more picturesque, as : 
 
 "Two Sparrows for one rice-grain made a riot. 
 The Cat was Arbitrator; all is quiet." 
 
 Nor is a tenderer element wanting: 
 
 "My Hair hung low, a giossy Braid ; 
 
 Thy Beard was down upon thy chin ; 
 Our Love, the Love of Youth and Maid, 
 To which all other Love is Sin ! ' ' 
 
 The book is printed in Oriental style in deep tan-brown on heavy paper, with 
 an unusual frontispiece in color by Will Jenkins.

 THE LOVE SONNETS OF A HOODLUM: SLANGFUL SIGHINGS OF A 
 ROMEO OF THE STREETS. By WALLACE IRWIN. Some day, when Mr. Irwin's 
 bust is unveiled in Westminster Abbey, you will treasure this book even more 
 as the work that made him famous. To gather an idea of the hero of these 
 touching sonnets, behold him as he fain would see himself: 
 
 "As follows is the make-up I shall buy 
 
 Next week, when from the boss I draw my pay : 
 A white and yellow zig-zag cutaway, 
 A sunset-colored vest and purple tie, 
 
 There's a lot more, but it is a shame to knock off these little specimens, or to 
 abbreviate the passionate outpourings of a soulful nature. 
 
 Bound in flexible Roman, 25 cents net. BANDANNA EDITION: Bound in genuine Hoodlum handker- 
 chief, 50 cents net. 
 
 THE LOVE SONNETS OF A CAR CONDUCTOR. FULL ACCOUNT OF 
 THE WOOING OF A BELL-PULL SPECIALIST. By WALLACE IRWIN. Supposing you 
 were a conductor, and your hated rival took the Only Girl to a dance, using 
 your own car as a means of conveyance, what would you do ? No, this is n't a 
 problem novel, but a sonnet sequence of sublime devotion that you can send 
 well, any one as a holiday gift or a valentine. Observe the denouement: 
 
 "For when your arms are full of girl and fluff, 
 
 You hide your nerve behind a yard of grin ; 
 You 'd spit into a wildcat's face and bluff 
 A flock of dragons with a safety-pin." 
 
 Besides that, it is impressively decorated and illustrated by Raymond Carter. 
 
 STEP-LIVELY EDITION : Bound in red transfer paper boards, boxed, 50 cents net. 
 
 THE RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM, JR.: SOLILOQUIES ON BEAUTY, 
 TOBACCO, HAIRPINS AND OTHER THINGS. By WALLACE IRWIN. It grew and 
 grew and still the wonder grew, that one small head could harbor all he knew. 
 Not that his head is really small, but listen to this: 
 
 "A Microbe lingers in a Kiss, you say? 
 Yes, but he nibbles in a pleasant Way. 
 
 Rather than in the Cup or Telephone 
 Better to catch him Kissing and be gay." 
 
 Lots more of the same sort, wiser and more humoristical. The eight illustra- 
 tions and cover design are by Gelett Burgess. 
 
 Bound in yellow silk fiber, 50 cents net.

 FUNNY FAVORS: "How TO FIND YOUR PARTNER AT DANCE OR DINNER." 
 Here are sets of the most original and amusing little favors that will enable the 
 hostess properly to "mix" her guests at an entertainment, or to assign partners 
 at dinners, dances, card parties or other functions. As place-cards, too, they 
 will be found a delightfully novel innovation. They consist of reproductions 
 of the quaint illustrations from Professor Wood's two mirthful books, How TO 
 TELL THE BIRDS FROM THE FLOWERS and ANIMAL ANALOGUES. There are, in 
 all, sixteen pairs of subjects, each pair printed on bristol-board, scored for parting 
 by the hostess, each corded so that it may be worn as a tally-card or favor. 
 Thus, if one fair guest draws " The Parrot," her partner will be the man who 
 has drawn "The Carrot"; the man who draws "The Ole Gander" must look 
 for a partner who has drawn "The Oleander." And so they run, "The Puss" 
 taking "The Octo-pus," "The Bunny" taking "The Tunny," "The Pecan" 
 taking "The Toucan" and "The Pansy" taking "The Chim-pansy." 
 
 The series comprises an assortment of sixteen subjefts or pairs, making thirty-two individual tally- 
 cards, providing for the entertainment of thirty-two guests without duplicates. Any desired number 
 of pairs will be supplied, and up to sixteen pairs without duplicates. Each pair, 4 cents net.

 the DOGGEREL DODGERS just described are full of fun without offense.

 simple, for while every leaf is beautifully illustrated in color, great care and 
 taste has been exercised to avoid that over-elaboration which gradually palls

 view of the fact that the calendars we send to our friends should not be things 
 of a day, but works of Art and Thought to be looked upon with pleasure 
 through all the coming year and even treasured when that year is with the Past. 
 That the first impression may be agreeable, each calendar is enclosed in a taste- 
 ful box of pleasant hue, with greeting labels designed by Harold Sichel.

 jects of the six leaves are: Friends, Merivale; Morn, Hickey; Love Stays,

 Light Your Fire, Van Dyke. The size is 3^ x 10 inches.
