" Bergson's resources in the way of erudition are remarkable, and in the 

 way of expression they are simply phenomenal. Open Bergson, and new 

 horizons open on every page you read. Nothing in Bergson is shop-worn or 

 at second hand." WILLIAM JAMES.

 phy, there have been not many more memorable occurrences in the history 

 of ideas." The Nation. 



HELEN R. ALBEE'S THE GLEAM 



By the Author of "Hardy Plants for Cottage Gardens " and 

 " Mountain Playmates. " $1.35 net.* 



" Might be called the autobiography of a soul A record of the develop- 

 ment of the spiritual instinct from its dawn in a child of six to its fruition in 

 a woman of forty-seven. . . . Told with sincerity and simplicity, with a 

 childlike frankness, and at the same time great reticence in all matters except 

 those of the spirit, and also with an astonishing lack of what is commonly 

 called egotism. . . . Those interested in psychic experiences will find 

 matter here that piques and holds the interest, and that larger body intent 

 upon some way of escape out of the limitations of daily living and the diffi- 

 culties and disorder of daily thinking, will find ' The Gleam' practically help- 

 ful and illuminating." Tlie Nation. 



"The record of a woman's religious doubts, her revolt from orthodoxy 

 and her unsatisfactory appeal to science to appease the craving of her spirit- 

 ual nature, and her final discovery of the means within herself to gratify her 

 longings. It is an intimate account of a struggle for peace and comfort told 

 without reservation." New York Sun.
