Christy Mathewson's Book
A Ripping Good Baseball Story by One Who Knows the Game
This book has attained a larger sale than any baseball story ever published.
The narrative deals with the students of a large university and their baseball team, the members of which have names which enable the reader to recognize them as some of the foremost baseball stars of the day before their entrance into the major leagues.
One gains a very clear idea of "inside baseball" stripped of wearisome technicalities. The book is profusely illustrated throughout and contains also a number of plates showing the manner in which Mathewson throws his deceptive curves, together with brief description of each.

ECONOMICAL COOKING Primrose Edition Planned for Two or More Persons By MISS WINIFRED S. GIBBS Dietitian and Teacher of Cooking of the New York Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor Printed on Fine Quality Book Paper. Cover Design in Colors
Many Cook Books have been published, from time to time, to meet various requirements, or to elucidate certain theories, but very few have been written to meet the needs of the large proportion of our population who are acutely affected by the constantly increasing cost of food products. Notwithstanding that by its valuable suggestions this book helps to reduce the expense of supplying the table, the recipes are so planned that the economies effected thereby are not offset by any lessening in the attractiveness, variety or palatability of the dishes.
Of equal importance are the sections of this work which deal with food values, the treatment of infants and invalids and the proper service of various dishes.
The recipes are planned for two persons, but may readily be adapted for a larger number. The book is replete with illustrations and tables of food compositions—the latter taken from the latest Government statistics.
