The Story of My Life in America. Illustrated, 8vo, net $1.50.
In this wonderfully interesting book we see Professor Steiner evolving from boyhood in a far-off Hungarian town, into an immigrant to the West; then, year by year, undergoing experiences, the story of which is conducive to a better understanding of what the alien has to endure in order to gradually adjust himself to American conditions and institutions. Real life is portrayed first among the racial wrongs and hatred of southern Europe, then in the steerage of the ocean liner; in New York, Princeton, Pittsburgh, and cities further west. Through and in it all, we see Professor Steiner, pressing ever forward and upward to the position of opportunity and influence he occupies to-day.

A Biographical Sketch by S. RALPH HARLOW. With Portraits. 12mo, cloth, net $1.00.
The author of this short “Life” knew Roswell Bates from his early years, and presents a satisfying picture of the man as he really was; at work and play; laboring, spending himself for others, giving of his best to “Spring Street,” on the lower west side of New York, and going to his rest before he reached his prime, yet with a great life-work well and nobly done.

Reminiscences of the author of “The Christian’s Secret of a Happy Life”
Illustrated, 16mo, cloth, net $1.00.
Hannah Whitall Smith was one of the great formative, religious influences of her time. She was a philanthropist, a mother in Israel, a spiritual guide. Yet it is with none of these things that the present sketch has to do. It depicts her in simple relations of life only--that of a grandmother to her grandchildren.

PAUL SEIPPEL
A Huguenot Saint of the Twentieth Century
The Life of Adèle Kamm. Translated from the French by Olive Wyon. With Portrait. Net $1.25.
A short biography which imparts more wisdom on the problem of suffering than a whole shelf-full of treatises. It is an account of the brief, pain-racked life of a sweet-souled follower of Jesus who passed from earth in 1911, at the age of twenty-five. Into the last six years of the life of this little Swiss girl were crowded experiences of God’s presence and of human need, of Divine support and of self-dedicatory usefulness for others, such as would have done honor to even a long life.
