Again Miss Laughlin has given us a master-piece in this story of present
day life. Millet's picture, "The Gleaners," is the moving spirit of this little romance and, incidentally, one catches the inspiration the artist portrays in his immortal canvas. "The Gleaners" is issued in similar style to "Everybody's Lonesome," of which the _Toronto Globe_ said: "One of the successful writers of 'Good Cheer' stories for old and young is Miss Laughlin, and whoever reads one of her cheery little volumes desires more." _PROF. EDWARD A. STEINER_ _Author of "The Immigrant Tide," etc._ The Broken Wall Stories of the Mingling Folk. Illustrated, net $1.00. Professor Steiner has the story-teller's knack and uses his art with consummate skill in this collection, where will be found dramatic tragedy and profound pathos in strong contrast with keen humor and brilliant wit, all permeated by an uncompromising optimism. No man has probed the heart of the immigrant more deeply, and his interpretation of these Americans of tomorrow is at once a revelation and an inspiration: a liberal education in brotherhood. _A. D. STEWART_ Heather and Peat |
