Breezy Glimpses into the Heart of Bohemia

"The author gets at the intimate secrets, the subtle charm of the
Quarter. A spirit of gaiety runs through the book."--_Phila.
Press._

By F. BERKELEY SMITH

Author of "How Paris Amuses Itself"

The Real Latin Quarter

In these captivating and realistic sketches, the reader is taken into the very heart of Bohemia and shown the innermost life and characters in this little world of art and amusement. The author pictures with brush, pen, and camera every nook and corner of the Quarter with such light and vivid touches that the reader is made to feel the very spirit, breathe the very atmosphere within these fascinating precincts. We look down upon the giddy whirl of the "Bal Bullier," enjoy a cozy breakfast at "Lavenue's," stroll through the Luxembourg Gardens, peep into studios and little corners known only to the initiated, mingle with the throng of models, grisettes, students, and artists on "Boul Miche" and in a hundred other ways see and enjoy this unconventional center.

"A True Picture," Say the Artists

_Charles Dana Gibson:_ "It is like a trip to Paris."

_John W. Alexander:_ "It is the real thing."

_Frederic Remington:_ "You have left nothing undone."

_Ernest Thompson Seton:_ "A true picture of the Latin Quarter as I knew it."

A Richly Made Book

_Watcrcolor Frontispiece by F. Hopkinson Smith. About 100 original drawings and camera snap shots by the Author, and two caricatures in color by the celebrated French caricaturist Sancha. 12mo, Cloth. Price, $1.20, post-paid._

FUNK & WAGNALLS COMPANY, PUBS., NEW YORK

Within the Gates of the Kingdom of Fun

"If you wish to thoroughly soak yourself with the concentrated
essence of enjoyment, read this book quickly. It is too good to
miss."--_The Philadelphia Item._

How Paris Amuses Itself

By F. BERKELEY SMITH

Author of "The Real Latin Quarter"

This jolly, handsome book is the very incarnation of that spirit of amusement which reigns supreme in the capital of the world's fun. The author unites the graphic skill of the artist, the infectious enthusiasm of the lover of fun and gaiety, and the intimate personal knowledge of the long-time resident in this great playground of the world. In spirit the reader can visit with a delightful comrade all the nooks of jollity known only to the initiated, enjoy all the sparkle and glitter of the ever-moving panorama of gaiety, and become a part of the merry throng.

"It is the gayest book of the season and is as handsome mechanically as it is interesting as a narrative. The sparkle, the glow, the charm of the risque, the shimmer of silks, and the glint of jewels--are all so real and apparent."--_Buffalo Courier._

"The very spirit of modern Paris is prisoned in its text."--_Life._

"There is about the whole book that air of light-heartedness and frolic which is essentially Parisian. This book is a book for everybody--those who know Paris and those who do not know it."--_North American_, Philadelphia.

135 Captivating Pictures

Six in colors, 16 full-page half-tone inserts, 58 full-page text
drawings, 55 half-page and smaller text drawings by the author and
several French artists, including _Galaniz_, _Sancha_, _Cardona_,
_Sunyer_, _Michael_, _Perenet_, and _Pezilla_.

_12mo, Cloth, Handsome Cover Design, $1.50, Post-paid._

FUNK & WAGNALLS COMPANY, PUBS., NEW YORK

The Breeziest Books on Parisian Life

"For delightful reading one can turn with pleasant anticipations
certain of fulfilment to F. Berkeley Smith's triology of books on
Paris life, 'The Real Latin Quarter' and 'How Paris Amuses Itself,'
and the latest volume just out, 'Parisians Out of
Doors.'"--_Burlington Hawk Eye._

Parisians Out of Doors

By F. BERKELEY SMITH

Author of "How Paris Amuses Itself" and "The Real Latin Quarter"

"It is a kaleidoscopic miscellany of anecdote, grave and gay; brief bits of biography and impressionistic portrayal of types, charming glimpses into Parisian life and character, and, above all, descriptions of the city's chief, and, to outward view, sole occupation--the art of enjoying oneself. Tourists have learned that Mr. Smith is able to initiate them into many mysteries uncatalogued or only guardedly hinted at by more staidly respectable and professional guides."--_The Globe_, New York.

"Smith's delightfully sympathetic Paris [Parisians Out of Doors] would make a wooden Indian part with his cigars."--_Frederic Remington._

"Naturally, these scenes and places and the persons who add the living touches to the pictures are described from the viewpoint of one who knows them well, for Mr. Smith holds the world of Paris in the hollow of his hand. This is an ideal book for summer reading."--_New York Press._

_12mo, cloth, handsome binding, illustrated with drawings by the
author and several French artists, and water-color frontispiece by
F. Hopkinson Smith $1.50 post-paid._

"Mr. Smith does not go sightseeing in the accepted sense of the word. It is not the museums and historical places in which he is interested, but _the people themselves_, and he gets many a view of which the hurried _tourist_ is altogether ignorant."--_Brooklyn Citizen._

In London Town

By F. BERKELEY SMITH

Illustrated by the Author and other Artists

"The charm of this book lies in its breezy talk, its naive descriptions and its plenitude of atmosphere. It certainly is a most charming book and the reader will have a good time 'In London Town' if he goes with the author."--_Philadelphia Inquirer._

"Everyday life and the living of it after British standards are what Mr. Smith sought and here reveals. He could not write an unreadable book, this American artist. It is all interesting that he has to tell of London Town."--_San Francisco Bulletin._

"The author conscientiously looks for the picturesque and he does much to show the brighter side of English life, for he writes in a light, bright, gay style that catches and holds the attention wherever one may open the book. Indeed he gives a true idea of the real life of the Londoner as few travellers would be apt to obtain unaided."--_Columbus (O.) State Journal._

"Candor is the prevailing note in this beautiful volume. There is nothing of the guide book spirit about it. It is bright, replete with anecdotes and a moving picture of wonderful London. London's labors, its pictures and its characteristics are shown in breezy fashion and even English cooking and London's kitchens come in for cheery comment. It is a refreshing book charmingly exhilarating."--_Philadelphia Record._

London Sketched with Brush and Pen: "He has studied London with a trained intelligence, observed it with an artist's eye, and then gives us a traveller's impression in a graceful, literary way."--_Chicago Tribune._

"It is brilliantly written. The glimpses of London which he gives are not at all like anything we are accustomed to in descriptions of London--herein lies the charm of Mr. Smith's book. He knows London quite as well as any American. It is a thoroughly delightful narrative--a pleasant and entertaining story, gracefully written, picturesque, and wholly original in inspiration and treatment."--_Brooklyn Eagle._

_ALONG THE BEAUTIFUL ADRIATIC JUST BEFORE THE WAR BEGAN_

Delightful Dalmatia

By ALICE LEE MOQUE

One of the most refreshing volumes written in years--a live, snappy, rollicking tale of experiences aboard and ashore in the most delightful piece of Southern Europe--along the Adriatic.

Its pages breathe the very spirit of everything that goes to make Dalmatia delightful. Story, anecdote--ancient or legendary--beautiful cities, old churches, countless architectural and other ancient treasures, etc., etc., pervade its pages in entertaining variety.

The book is timely for its descriptions of places already in the wake of war; among these is Cattaro, the recently bombarded fortification on the Adriatic. Unusually attractive is the great scenic and historic interest attaching to Pola, Sebenico, Gravossa, Spalato, Ragusa, etc.

_Cloth bound, 362 pages. Profusely illustrated in color and half-tone. $2.00, net; by mail, $2.16_
