The author of "Dear Daughter Dorothy" needs no
passport to favor. That bewitching little story
which she not only wrote but illustrated must have
given the name of A. G. Plympton a notable place
among the writers of children's stories. Followed
by "Betty, a Butterfly" and now by "The Little
Sister of Wilifred," we have a most interesting
trio with which to adorn a child's
library.--_Boston Times._

A LOST HERO.
BY ELIZABETH STUART PHELPS WARD AND HERBERT D.
WARD. With 30 illustrations by Frank T. Merrill.
Small quarto. Cloth. Price, $1.50.
[Illustration]
The lost hero was a poor old negro who saved the
Columbia express from destruction at the time of
the Charleston earthquake, and vanished from human
ken after his brave deed was accomplished,
swallowed up, probably, in some yawning crevice of
the envious earth. The story is written with that
simplicity which is the perfection of art, and its
subtle pathos is given full and eloquent
expression. But noble as the book is, viewed as a
literary performance, it owes not a little of its
peculiar attractiveness to the illustrations with
which it is now adorned after drawings by Frank T.
Merrill.--_The Beacon._
