Wild Brother 



Strangest of True Stories from the North Woods 



By William Lyman Underwood 



Kipling in his Jungle Book ' has immortalized Mowgli, the man's 

 cub, who fled from the wrath of Shere Khan, the tiger, and took shelter 

 in the den of a wolf, and was brought up with her young. Many such 

 stories have come down to us out of the past, but has anyone ever heard 

 of the reverse of these stories? Does history record an instance where 

 a woman, to save the life of a helpless starving animal, has taken it into 

 her family and brought it up with her baby? I think not. Such a story 

 was told to me one evening in midwinter, by the station agent in a little 

 village in Northern Maine." (page 95) 



Engagingly written and fully illustrated, this extraordinary story of 

 human kindness is certain to take a distinctive place in the chronicles of 

 animal lore. $2.00 



Everyday Adventures 



By Samuel Scoville, Jr. 



" Mr. Scoville writes so delightfully about finding a blue gentian, or 

 an almost inaccessible raven's nest, or a rare orchid, that his advice to 

 gain health and cultivate a hobby for the outdoor things seems not only 

 practicable but desirable. Like A. Edward Newton and his enthusiasm 

 for Boswell's Johnson, Mr. Scoville with his enthusiasm for bird songs 

 and flowers leaves one hopelessly infected. 



" By all means read this book if you love birds, flowers or the 

 woods. The chill of winter and the heat of Summer are in it. The 

 joy of sitting at home and coming unexpectedly upon a woodland treas- 

 ure is a joy not lightly to be foregone, and a joy that comes to you over 

 and over in these pages.' ' — Chicago Evening Post.
