| 213MRS. PEATTIE'S BOOK OF STORIES
Under the title, "A Mountain Woman,"
noted, has issued a book of short stories
which we believe will win for her a
place among the most eminent American writers.
Mrs. Peattie for several years has
written for an ever-widening circle of
admirers. Her work upon the World-
Herald day by day has given her a
reputation in the west equaled by no
other woman, while her occasional con-
tributions to the magazines of the
country have made her known to the
rapidly swelling multitude of magazine
readers in all parts of the United States.
The literary critic of the Chicago
Times-Herald has written such an ad-
mirable critique of the "The Mountain
Woman" that we republish it on this
page in lieu of a review by the World-
Herald, which might be considered
somewhat prejudiced in the author's favor.
Without setting itself up as a prophet
the World Herald ventures the predic-
tion that Mrs. Peattie has now formally
entered upon a literary career which
will make her a wide reputation | 213MRS. PEATTIE'S BOOK OF STORIES
