Excerpt from Seven Stories Their work in the Preface, and from this time honoured usage I shall not depart, although I intend my remarks shall be as brief as possible. One of my reasons for publishing this volume is, that it has appeared to me that short stories are required just as much as long ones. There is many a hard-worked man, aye, and woman too, who, on being asked if they have read this or that novel, answer deprecatingly (of themselves) Well, no l The story is not a short one, and I haven't the time.

Seven Short Stories, seeing that they are neglected by the rest Of writers. It may be argued that my intentions are better than 'my work.

Book Description
Excerpt from Seven Stories: Edited With an Introduction by Carl Van Doren To Hawthorne, brooding in retrospect over the event, it did not seem a mere trivial episode. We saw in it a dramatic clash between two ideals of life, and in the Maypole a symbol of all that New England left behind in its austere renunciation of the things of this world.

Book Description
Excerpt from Seven Tales by Seven Authors A lady, herself an authoress, was some years ago introduced as a contributor to Snamn's magazine, at that time conducted by the Editor of the present volume. Owing to cir cumstances, into which it is unnecessary to enter, the precarious income of a magazine writer was the chief resource on which this lady had to rely, for the support of herself and her young family, although there was good reason to hope, that if the effects of an imme diate pressure could be averted, a brighter prospect lay before her.

Excerpt from Paulownia Seven Stories From Contemporary Japanese Writers America and France were published, he appeared as a new star in the literary world of Japan.

Book Description
Excerpt from Seven Scots Stories At the distance they stood from each other, Kate could not hear the frantic thumping of Easie's heart, which might have given the lie to these brave words. Kate herself was a mountainous woman, tall, bulky, big-boned, almost masculine in appearance. Her face looked as if it had been roughly hacked out of a bit of wood, her skin was like hide, and her hair like coarse black linen thread her voice was loud and gruff - altogether an alarm ing personality.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Seven Voices With a breast that throbs, and a brain on fire; With bated breath, and a sudden start, Her lover's good-night to the host She hears, Like a knell at her heart - like a knell at her heart. Years many have own, o'er oceans unknown, Tho' roaming, he ever remembers that day; Lang Syne is sweet, once more they meet, Their locks are gray - their locks are gray.
