THE new book by Hugh Walpole, JEREMY AND HAMLET, records some further adventures of a small boy accompanied by that only fit companion for a boy, a dog. It has a great deal of fun and an undercurrent of tenderness; all of Walpole's charm and moments of a touching dignity. The popular appeal, inherent in its subject matter, is possibly the greatest of any Walpole to date. Behind it, and with it, is the towering record of "The Cathedral❞—and also the fact that prior to the appearance of "The Cathedral" more copies of "Jeremy" had been sold than of any other Walpole title.

Highest Praise on Every Hand

for Herbert Quick's Great Novel

The Hawkeye

The Hawkeye is the best American novel that 1923 has brought along.-Boston Herald.

Unless the Great American novel appears soon, The Hawkeye will win the Pultizer Prize for 1923 Chicago Tribune.

The beauty and the good cheer and the courage of pioneer experience have been gathered by Herbert Quick in a novel that lifts American literature and American life a little higher New York Times.

I don't say that it is great a book a as The Scarlet Letter or Huckleberry Finn; but it is a book of the same order.-The Independent.

FOUND MONEY

[ocr errors]
[ocr errors]

Found Money is, a story of buried treasure-with a difference. A very great and remarkable difference. There is an excellent plot, with all the twists and unexpected happenings a mystery story ought to have, not to mention a genuine, entirely natural and thoroughly comic surprise at the end. The dialogue is entertaining throughout, with a dry wit often touched with irony, but always good-humored. And the fun is never labored. Found Money should be kept on one's shelf as a tonic for the blues.-The New York Times.
