ONE HUNDREDCARTOONS BY CESARE

BRILLIANT and powerful interpretations of ourtimes by the artist whose change from the NewYork Sun to the New York Evening Post gave

the latter newspaper opportunity to say that when for

the first time in its history it decided to add a car-

toonist to its regular staff, it had obtained the

services of the ablest cartoonist in America.Whether dealing with politics or war, social sub-

jects, humorous situations, portraits, Cesareis alwaysan artist ; he is known as such throughout this country,while his work is reprinted in European periodicals

more often than that of any other American car-toonist.

His drawings have been characterized as ex-

pressing " the point of view that seeks not merelypleasantness or decorativeness or the suggestion ofa sympathetic anecdote, but rather the sincere repre-

sentation of life as seen by men of character, humorand insight."

His work satisfies to the utmost the definition ofthe difference— so often not clearly understood — be-tween the cartoon and the caricature : the caricaturemerely makes you laugh, the cartoon makes youthink.

The Best Short Stories Of 1915AND THE

YEARBOOK OF THE AMERICAN SHORT STORY

Edward J. O'Brien, Editor

"From every point of view— from that of the actual

probabilities of reading-enjoyment to be derived from it by

all sorts of readers ; from that of the vivid and varied, but

always valid, concernment with life that it maintains; from

that of technical literary interest in American letters, and from

that of sheer esthetic response to artistic quality —THE BESTSHORT STORIES OF 1915 AND THE YEARBOOKOF THE AMERICAN SHORT STORY, edited by

Edward J. O'Brien, warrants an emphatic and unconditional

recommendation to all."

—

Life.

" Of the twenty-two hundred most promising short stories

by American writer., which were published in 1915, Edward

J. O'Brien has selected the twenty 'best'— a collection of

such wide range and diverse style as to represent almost every

type of deservedly popular magazine story. It needs no vote

to determine the worth of the collection as a whole— good

tales, varied, well-told, new, are sure of popular approval."

— The Independent.

" These twenty stories are beyond question representa-

tive, and admirably so, of the best work of the kind now

being published. The volume thus is of genuine value to all

who are sincerely interested in contemporary letters and life.

For the general reader it has the further merit of being one

of the most readable collections of short stories published

in a long while."

IMPORTANT ART BOOKS

Published by SMALL, MAYNARD & COMPANYONE HUNDRED CARTOONS BY CESARE

Brilliant and powerful interpretations of our times, by the man whose recent changefrom the New Fork Sun to the New Fork Evening Post gave the latter newspaperopportunity to congratulate itself on the good fortune which had enabled it, when for the

first time in its history it decided to add a cartoonist to its regular staff, to obtain the ser-

vices of the ablest cartoonist in America. Cesare is more than a cartoonist : he is an artist,

and is known as such throughout this country, while his work is reprinted in Europeanperiodicals more often taan that of any other American cartoonist. His greatness lies in

his genius as an artist as vVull as in the strength of the ideas that his drawings express.

ART By Auguste RodinTranslated from the French of Paul Gsell by Mrs. Romillt Eedden" A faithful reproduction by Paul Gsell of conversations with Rodin, showing his direct

tone and photogravure, 67 reproduce Rodin's work."

JAN VERMEER OF DELFT By Philip L. Hale" At last we have a book in English on Vermeer— an extremely valuable, popular ac-

count. We get from such a book as this not only an interpretation of a particular artist's

art, but also of the art of painting in general. Writing about Vermeer in The Outlooksome years ago, Mr. E. ~V. Lucas called him 'the raivst and most fastidious of masters.'

After reading Mr. Hale's book one feels anew the justice of that statement. " — Outlook." The most elaborate stylistic analysis ever applied to any artist."— Nation.
