Seen in Gernnany 



By RAY STANNARD BAKER 



During a recent visit to Germany, 'Mr. Baker was afforded unusual opportunities to study 

 the workingman, both in the shop and in his home ; the soldier, on and off duty ; the typical 

 (iernuin scientist (Professor Haeckel), and the Emperor — in fact, all sides of German life. 

 The results of this careful study are set forth in a concise and interesting manner. Whether 

 he is recounting a visit to a German scientific institution or describing the inner workings of a 

 great German shipyard, Mr. Baker is convincing and entertaining. The pictures of George 

 Varian, made from studies on the ground, add greatly to the charm of the book. 12mo, |2.(J0

Songs of Nature 



Edited by JOHN BURROUGHS 



There is probably no one better qualified than John Burroughs 

 to edit an anthology of English nature verse. The great beauty of 

 sentiment and expression in the selections which he has made gives 

 one an exalted opinion of the possibilities of the English language. 

 This volume is notable among its kind in that no poem has been 

 admitted which is not absolutely true to nature. 12mo, $1.50.
