 THE RAVEN 
 
 INCLUDING the PHILOSOPHY OF 
 COMPOSITION. By Edgar Allan 
 Poe. Probably the greatest short 
 poem in American literature, 
 certainly Poe's chef d'oeuvre, and 
 one of those rare and inconceivable mas- 
 terpieces wherein the craftsman's skill 
 is forgotten in the perfection of his 
 art, combined with a prose essay of 
 commanding critical and literary inter- 
 est, being a faithful exposition (pre- 
 sumably), by the poet, of his modus 
 operandi in composing THE RAVEN. Com- 
 ing from Poe's own hand and written 
 in his most felicitous style, it is felt 
 that no other introduction to the poem 
 could be more happily conceived or exe- 
 cuted, although it is indeed possible, 
 as some critics assert, that this supposed 
 analysis is purely fictitious. But if so, 
 it becomes all the more distinctive as a 
 marvelous bit of imaginative writing, 
 and as such ranks equally with that 
 wild snatch of melody, THE RAVEN.

 CHRISTMASSE TYPE 
 
 BOOK of seasonable quotations 
 pertaining to the joys; cus- 
 toms and traditions of the 
 holidays from Christmas 
 Eve onward to Twelfth 
 Night. Compiled by Jennie Day Haines, 
 from various sources old and new. At 
 Christmas, play and make good cheer, 
 For Christmas comes but once a year. ' ' 
 Christmas-tide, we are told, "the 
 twelve days of Christmas," embraces 
 the period between Christmas Eve, 
 December 24th, and Epiphany, or 
 Twelfth Night, January 6th. Great as 
 the feast of Christmas is, nothing can 
 be definitely traced as to its origin ; no- 
 body knows who first celebrated it, or 
 when, or where, or how. Yet of all 
 red-letter days of the calendar none is 
 so generally observed, none brings with 
 it such universal joy and good- will and 
 none has been so generously memorial- 
 ized in verse and song as this holy day. 
 The quotations are grouped under such 
 headings as <f Ye Yule Log," "Ye 
 Christmasse Waytes," "Ye Wassaile 
 Bowie, " " Christmasse Lullabies, ' ' 
 "Christmasse Customs." The frontis- 
 piece, a charming conception of mother 
 love, is done by Gordon Ross. 
 
 Set in bold-face Washington Text and 
 handsomely printed in red and black upon 
 cream Normandy vellum. The typogra- 
 phy, including intricate rule work, is con- 
 ceived in old missal style. Bound in A ncona

 WEATHER 
 OPINIONS 
 
 A OK of quotations weather- 
 wise and otherwise perti- 
 nent to seasonable condi- 
 tions, with original inter- 
 leaves on weather subjects. 
 By Jennie Day Haines. In e very-day 
 life, there is perhaps no topic that con- 
 cerns us so nearly as the weather. 
 Under its various aspects, it is a never- 
 failing subject for discussion, about 
 which but few entirely agree. However, 
 as one wise observer remarks: " 'Tain't 
 no use to grumble and complain: It's 
 jest as easy to rejoice: When God sorts 
 out the weather, and sends rain, Why, 
 rain's my choice." 
 
 The compiler's choice of selection 
 has been wide. There are fair-weather 
 quotations and rainy-day quotations, 
 bits of June sky and flurries of Novem- 
 ber snow, storm-proof philosophy, old 
 rhymes and proverbs, quaint signs and 
 notions, interesting facts, all properly 
 classified, forming a most entertaining 
 and instructive collection of weather 
 lore. From a clear sunset I can always 
 borrow God's sweet half promise of a fair 
 tomorrow." 
 
 The color scheme and typography of 
 this volume are striking, harmonious and 
 effective. Set in Washington Text and 
 printed in green and brown, with interleaves 
 in red and black upon Normandy vellum. 
 Strongly bound in Fabriano handmade 
 boards, Sugiyama golden back. Gilt top.

THOUGHTS FOR YOUR FRIENDS 
 
 An Enclosed Garden. Frontispiece to THE GARDEN BOOK OF CALIFORNIA 
 
 "Now there was ... a garden fair . . . Walled all about ; and so with trees close set, Was all the place . . 
 That no one though he were near walking by, Might there within scarce any one espy." 
 
 THE GARDEN BOOK 
 OF CALIFORNIA 
 
 FOR garden-makers and home- 
 builders. By Belle Sumner 
 Angier. Not a technical 
 treatise on local botany, nor 
 a descriptive work composed 
 of flowery language, but the kind and 
 manner of book to interest and assist 
 anybody who has a garden and loves it, 
 or, having none, longs mightily to toil 
 with rake, spade, trowel, hose and 
 sprinkling-pot upon a little patch of 
 ground all his own. 
 
 Beautifully illustrated and decorated. 
 A good book to take up when tired, 
 for it is as full of refreshment as a real 
 garden of flowers. 
 
 Printed on toned deckle. Bound in full 
 
 linen. *$2.00 net. Postage, 13 cents. 
 
 Garden Edition. Spanish leather. Gilt 
 
 top. Boxed. *$3.50 net. Postage, 13 
 
 cents. 
 
 BIRD NOTES 
 AFIELD 
 
 RAISED and enlarged edition 
 of a standard work by 
 Charles Keeler. Realistic 
 and sympathetic studies, 
 charmingly written by one 
 peculiarly well fitted to describe the 
 lives and habitat of his intimate friends, 
 the birds of the Pacific Coast. For 
 those who desire technical data, an ad- 
 mirably arranged field check list, at 
 the end, will be found invaluable for 
 field use. Illustrated in tone from Find- 
 ley photographs successful snap-shots 
 of birds in their haunts. These, with the 
 warm-toned paper, excellent typogra- 
 phy and attractive binding, will make the 
 volume a joy to any possessor thereof. 
 Bound in full rough linen, extra.
