Good Fiction for Vacation Reading
perpetua
By DION CLAYTON CALTHROP, author of “Everybody’s
Secret.” Cloth. I2mo. $1.30 net. Postage 12 cents.
A love story as full of surprises and as much out of the ordinary
run of novels as Locke’s “Beloved Vagabond.” In fact, Mr. Cal-
throp’s works contain much of the grace and charm of Mr. Locke’s
novels.
THE SOCIALIST COUNTESS
By HORACE C. NEWTE, author of “The Sins of the Children,”
“ Sparrows,” etc. 12mo. Cloth. $1.30 net. Postage 12 cents.
A delicious satire of the Countess who became a Socialist and the
laboring man who became her protege and fell in love with her daughter.
The tale is full of delightful and ludicrous situations, into which the
Countess is plunged by her ignorance of her subject and her enthusiasm
for the cause.
DEMETER’S DAUGHTER
By EDEN PH1LLPOTTS. Cloth. I2mo. $1.35 net. Postage
12 cents.
The most important of Mr. Phillpotts’ recent novels. Tells of the
life of self-renunciation on the part of a mother for her children and a
worthless husband. As in many of his former novels, Mr. Phillpotts
has laid the scene in Dartmoor.
THE YOUNG IDEA
By PARKER H;> FILLMORE, author of “The
Hickory Limb.” Cloth. 12mo. $1.25 net. Post-
age 15 cents.
The humorous chronicles of a neighborhood.
A series of laughs from the heart out and a pleasant
vista backward to the days of childhood will come to the
reader of this real story of real American child life.
THE RED LANTERN: Being
the Story of the Goddess of the
Red Lantern Light
By EDITH WHERRY. Cloth. 12mo. $1.30 net. Postage 12
cents.
A true story of the Boxer uprising in China. A love romance is
interwoven with the problem of the half-breed, the Eurasian, that un-
fortunate mixture of the white and ye low races.
THE EXCEPTION
By OLIVER ONIONS. Clolh. I2mo. $1.50
The story is that of a woman who for a brief period of her early
youth regarded life’s race not as an organized handicap, but as a ‘ ‘go-as-
you-please.” Such histories as that of Berice Beckwith are usually
treated from the point of view of the revolting spirit; this one is regarded
in its other aspects.
Her struggle to preserve her carefully guarded secret is excellently
handled, as is also the description of blackmail and threatened disclosure
upon her wedding day.
PHYLLIS IN MIDDLEWYCH
By MARGARET WESTRUPP, author of “Elizabeth’s Chil-
dren,” “ The Young O’Briens,” etc. Cloth. I2mo. $1.50.
It is some years since “Elizabeth’s Children” was published, when
it immediately ran through edition after edition. In her new book the
author shows that same sympathetic touch and sure knowledge of the
real child that stamped “Elizabeth’s Children” as a live book. The
doings and misdoings of Phyllis are told with understanding and with
humor.
BILLY
By PAUL METHVEN. 12mo. Cloth. $1.50.
Billy, the heroine, is a pleasure-loving, athletic, out-of-door girl,
who has vowed never to renounce her independence by accepting an
offer of marriage, but whose resolutions are broken down by the per-
suasions of a most ardent admirer, on condition that the marriage shall
be a strictly business contract. The complications, the humor, comedy
and tragedy that arise from this extraordinary situation form the topic
of a most interesting tale.
SAM’S KID
By F.E. MILLS YOUNG. I2mo. Cloth. $1.50.
The story of a girl’s life. Her devotion and self sacrifice, whereby
she saves the man she loves from falling under the penalty of the law for
a charge of murder falsely brought against him by an enemy.
DRENDER’S DAUGHTER
By NETTA SYRETT. 12mo. Cloth. $1.50.
. The story of a pedantic student who adopts a child of the people
with the intention of educating her to fit her for marriage with himself.
The result of this experiment is told in the author’s best manner.

THE TRAVELERS INSUR¬
ANCE COMPANY paid in
1910 over half a million dollars to
its policy holders for accidents pecu-
liar to the vacation season.
These enormous benefits, paid by this
largest of all accident companies for vaca-
tion injuries, should impress you with the
necessity of accident insurance.
Now is the time when many people are
injured in hunting, boating, fishing, bicycling,
baseball, golf, riding and driving, automobil-
ing and travel. Every year one in eight of
the population is injured, and one death in
every ten is from accident. There are more
people disabled every year in this country by
accident than were killed and wounded in
any year of the Civil War.
Such is the life we must live. Its den-
sity of population—its feverish activity—its
desire for rapid transportation—its diversity
and mechanical complexity—its increasing
desire for hazardous sports, make protection
by insurance an absolute necessity.
The benefits are so broad and the
coSt so small, that if a man does not
carry accident insurance it is generally
because he does not know the fads.
Let us tell you how much insurance
$25 a year will buy.
