The Macmillan Standard Library 



Each volume, Cloth, 12mo, SO cents 



This series has taken its place as one of the most important popular- 

 priced editions. The " Library " includes only those books which have 

 been put to the test of public opinion and have not been found wanting, 

 books, in other words, which have come to be regarded as standards in the 

 fields of knowledge literature, religion, biography, history, politics, art, 

 economics, sports, sociology, and belles lettres. Together they make the 

 most complete and authoritative works on the several subjects.

THE COUNTRY LIFE MOVEMENT IN THE UNITED STATES 



"... clearly thought out, admirably written, and always stimulating in 

 its generalization and in the perspectives it opens." Philadelphia Press. 



" Concise and straightforward to the point of bareness in its presentation 

 of facts, arguments, and plans, its every sentence is packed so full of what 

 the author thinks, knows, and hopes of the condition, prospects, and possi- 

 bilities of rural life, that the volume comes as near to being solid meat as 

 any book can come." New York Times. 



Conyngton, Mary 



HOW TO HELP: A MANUAL OF PRACTICAL CHARITY

 less man and woman, its care of needy families, and the discussion of the 

 problems of child labor will prove of value to the philanthropic worker."
