Illust. by F. R. Gruger and Henry Raleigh.

A series of clever swindles conducted by a cheerful young man, each of which is just on the safe side of a State’s prison offence.  As “Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford,” it is probably the most amusing expose of money manipulation ever seen on the stage.

THE INTRUSION OF JIMMY.  By P. G. Wodehouse.

Illustrations by Will Grefe.

Social and club life in London and New York, an amateur burglary adventure and a love story.  Dramatized under the title of “A Gentleman of Leisure,” it furnishes hours of laughter to the play-goers.

NEW, CLEVER, ENTERTAINING.

GRET:  The Story of a Pagan.  By Beatrice Mantle.

Illustrated by C. M. Relyea.

The wild free life of an Oregon lumber camp furnishes the setting for this strong original story.  Gret is the daughter of the camp and is utterly content with the wild life—­until love comes.  A fine book, unmarred by convention.

OLD CHESTER TALES.  By Margaret Deland.

Illustrated by Howard Pyle.

A vivid yet delicate portrayal of characters in an old New England town.

Dr. Lavendar’s fine, kindly wisdom is brought to bear upon the lives of all, permeating the whole volume like the pungent odor of pine, healthful and life giving.  “Old Chester Tales” will surely be among the books that abide.

THE MEMOIRS OF A BABY.  By Josephine Daskam.

Illustrated by F. Y. Cory.

The dawning intelligence of the baby was grappled with by its great aunt, an elderly maiden, whose book knowledge of babies was something at which even the infant himself winked.  A delicious bit of humor.

REBECCA MARY.  By Annie Hamilton Donnell.

Illustrated by Elizabeth Shippen Green.

The heart tragedies of this little girl with no one near to share them, are told with a delicate art, a keen appreciation of the needs of the childish heart and a humorous knowledge of the workings of the childish mind.

Frontispiece by Harrison Fisher.

An Irish story of real power, perfect in development and showing a true conception of the spirited Hibernian character as displayed in the tragic as well as the tender phases of life.

THE MAN FROM BRODNEY’S.  By George Barr McCutcheon.

Illustrated by Harrison Fisher.

An island in the South Sea is the setting for this entertaining tale, and an all-conquering hero and a beautiful princess figure in a most complicated plot.  One of Mr. McCutcheon’s best books.
