THE END

By ARTHUR STANWOOD PIER

THE WOMEN WE MARRY

"Keen and incisive in character study, logical and life-like in plot invention and development, 'The Women We Marry,' is a novel that stands st.u.r.dily on its own merits. It is vigorous, frank and emotional in the best sense of that much-abused word, and there is little in it that is not faithfully representative of life." _Boston Transcript._

"The author of this realistic novel has not been afraid to endow his people richly with the ordinary faults and foibles of human nature....

Both his men and women are very real, human people." _New York Times._

"As a study of types, 'The Women We Marry' is one of the best things that American fiction has recently produced." _Springfield Republican._

O PIONEERS!

"A great romantic novel, written with striking brilliancy and power, in which one sees emerge a new country and a new people.... Throughout the story one has the sense of great s.p.a.ces; of the soil dominating everything, even the human drama that takes place upon it; renewing itself while the generations come and pa.s.s away."--_McClure's Magazine._

"The book is big in its conception and strikes many great live topics of the day--the feminist movement and the back-to-the-soil doctrines being two of the most conspicuous. There is a spirit of the open s.p.a.ces about this story--a bigness that suggests that Miss Cather has taken more than her t.i.tle from Whitman's hymn to progress, 'Pioneers, O Pioneers.'"--_San Francisco Chronicle._

By ELIA W. PEATTIE

THE PRECIPICE

"A frank and fearless study of the New Womanhood which we now see all around us ... done upon a broad canvas."--_The Bookman._

"No stronger novel pleading the cause of woman has yet been written than 'The Precipice.'"--_Los Angeles Times._

"The author knows life and human nature thoroughly, and she has written out of ripened perceptions and a full heart ... a book which men and women alike will be better for reading, of which any true hearted author might be proud."--_Chicago Record Herald._

"So absolutely true to life that it is hard to consider it fiction."--_Boston Post._

By HENRY SYDNOR HARRISON

V. V.'S EYES

"'V. V.'s Eyes' is a novel of so elevated a spirit, yet of such strong interest, unartificial, and uncritical, that it is obviously a fulfillment of Mr. Harrison's intention to 'create real literature.'"--_Baltimore News._

"In our judgment it is one of the strongest and at the same time most delicately wrought American novels of recent years."--_The Outlook._

"'V. V.'s Eyes' is an almost perfect example of idealistic realism. It has the soft heart, the clear vision and the boundless faith in humanity that are typical of our American outlook on life."--_Chicago Record-Herald._

"A delicate and artistic study of striking power and literary quality which may well remain the high-water mark in American fiction for the year.... Mr. Harrison definitely takes his place as the one among our younger American novelists of whom the most enduring work may be hoped for."--_Springfield Republican._

By Mrs. Romilly Fedden

THE SPARE ROOM

"A bride and groom, a villa in Capri, a spare room and seven guests (a.s.sorted varieties) are the ingredients which go to make this thoroughly amusing book."--_Chicago Evening Post._

"Bubbling over with laughter ... distinctly a book to read and chuckle over."--_Yorkshire Observer._

"Mrs. Fedden has succeeded in arranging for her readers a constant fund of natural yet wildly amusing complications."--_Springfield Republican._

"A clever bit of comedy that goes with spirit and sparkle, Mrs. Fedden's little story shows her to be a genuine humorist.... She deserves to be welcomed cordially to the ranks of those who can make us laugh."--_New York Times._

"Brimful of rich humor."--_Grand Rapids Herald._

By Meredith Nicholson

OTHERWISE PHYLLIS

"The most delightful novel-heroine you've met in a long time. You like it all, but you love Phyllis."--_Chicago Inter-Ocean._

"A true-blue, genuine American girl of the 20th century."--_Boston Globe._

"Phyllis is a fine creature.... 'Otherwise Phyllis' is a 'comfortable, folksy, neighborly tale' which is genuinely and unaffectedly American in its atmosphere and point of view."--_Hamilton Wright Mabie, in the Outlook._

"'Phil' Kirkwood--'Otherwise Phyllis'--is a creature to welcome to our hearth, not to our shelf, for she does not belong among the things that are doomed to become musty."--_Boston Herald._

"Phyllis is a healthy, hearty, vivacious young woman of prankish disposition and inquiring mind.... About the best example between book covers of the American girl whose general att.i.tude toward mankind is one of friendliness."--_Boston Advertiser._
