yet forcible touch, she paints sweet and artless, yet natural and strong, characters."--=Congregationalist.= =Mixed Pickles.= A Story for Girls. By MRS. E. M. FIELD. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price 75 cents. "It is, in its way, a little classic, of which the real beauty and pathos can hardly be appreciated by young people.
