Excerpt from The Hat Crusade, Vol. 3 Several slight errors in this volume have escaped detection until after printing. On p. 55, half way down, read 1896, instead of 1897. For Sismundi, in two places (pp. 140 and read Sismondi. On p. 165, for Mostyn, read Moslyn. One mistake of more con sequence occurs on p. 117, half way down, where, for in this century, read in this generation. Some will probably have wondered why the first volume of The Hat Crusade has been charged twice as much as the second. The fact is that the labour involved in its production fully justified a charge of 55. Whereas the subsequent volumes have been produced at a considerably less cost, though equal if not superior in workmanship. Now, however, that the three volumes are completed, it seems advisable to make them a uniform price; and therefore from this date Vol. I will be 25 6d., instead of 5s. As heretofore.

Excerpt from Tales of the Crusaders, Vol. 1 of 4: The Betrothed Eveline's watch on the battlements, and the faint tinkling sound she hears from afar, are conceived in the true Spirit of romance. The spirit of the Haunted Chamber is wisely left unexplained: she has certainly a tendency to follow the White Lady of Avenel. It would be interesting to know whether Sir Walter borrowed this idea of a mysterious room, which each woman of the family must visit once in a lifetime, from the tradition of Glammis Castle. There, according to a widely circulated legend, is a secret chamber, which the heir must enter once, on attaining his majority. In 1793 Scott passed a night at Glammis, and this was one of the two occasions when he experienced that degree of superstitious awe which his countrymen call eerie. The other occasion was probably on the moor near Ashestiel, when his mare Finella was not anxious to remain in the company of the mysterious figure. (lockhart, i. 295; Gillies, p. Scott mentions the secret chamber of Glammis, known only to the Earl of Strathmore, his heir apparent, and a third person, but he says nothing of the legend akin to that of the Bahr Geist, - the Red Finger. (lockhart, i. Hence it has been argued that the legend is later than Scott's time. His incident of the Balm' Geist's cham ber may suggest a contrary opinion.

Excerpt from The New Crusade, Vol. 9: March, 1899 Dean of the Woman's Department of the University of Michigan. A well-poised body conduces not only to health, but it is also essential to physical beauty. The great masses of Americans, young as well as old, stand and sit in wrong postures, and acquire a habit of body that is most detrimental. The shoulders are rounded, head projects forward, the chest is compressed, and the curve at the lower part of the spine is straightened. In my travels in Europe I looked for this attitude, but did nor find it as I do in this country, so I have come to call it the American attitude. It is a sorry sight to see young people, who should walk with vigor and grace, shambling along with crooked backs and hollow chests and knees that are never fully straightened. Mothers and teachers should know what the normal attitude is, and insist that the children shall maintain it, and then it will be the habit of adults. In standing, the body is in the proper position when the weight rests principally on the balls of the feet, the heels lightly touching the ground. The knees are held firm by muscular tension; the chest is elevated and thrown forward, and the lower part of the spine thrown backward and held high, while the head is balanced on the top of the spinal column. With the body thus placed, the arms drop at the sides midway between front and back, the space be tween spine and breast-bone is increased, giving more room for the great mass of the lungs, and the breathing muscles are aided in their ceaseless labor.

Excerpt from Tancred, or the New Crusade, Vol. 2 Jerusalem by moonlight! 'tis a fine spectacle, apart from all its indissoluble associations of awe and beauty. The mitigating hour softens the austerity of a mountain landscape magnificent in outline, however harsh and severe in detail; and, while it retains all its sublimity, removes much of the savage sternness of the strange and unrivalled scene. A fortified city. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Tales of the Crusaders, Vol. 2 The rite itself was the preliminary to a state which the inmates of the cloister had renounced for ever. The Abbess's Norman pride of birth, and the real interest which she took in her niece's advancement, overcame all scruples; and the venerable mother might be seen in unwonted bustle, now giving orders to the gardener for decking the apartment with flowers - now to her cellaress, her precentrix, and the lay-sisters of the kitchen, for preparing a splendid banquet, mingling her commands on these worldly subjects with an occasional ejaculation on their vanity and worthlessness, and every now and then converting the busy and anxious looks which she threw upon her preparations into a solemn turning upward of eyes and folding of hands, as one who sighed over the mere earthly pomp which she took such trouble in superintending. At another time the good lady might have been seen in, close consultation with Father Aldrovand upon the ceremonial, civil and religious, which was to accompany a solemnity of such consequence to her family. Meanwhile the reins of discipline, although relaxed for a season, were not entirely thrown loose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
