rong of things. She knows their characters, she understands their wants, and she desires to help them. =Polly=: A New Fashioned Girl. By L. T. MEADE. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00. Few authors have achieved a popularity equal to Mrs. Meade as a writer of stories for young girls. Her characters are living beings of flesh and blood, not lay figures of conventional type. Into the trials and crosses, and everyday experiences, the reader enters at once with zest and hearty sympathy. While Mrs. Meade always writes with a high moral purpose, her lessons of life, purity and nobility of character are rather inculcated by example than intruded as sermons. =One of a Covey.= By the author of "Miss Toosey's Mission." 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price 75 cents. "Full of spirit and life, so well sustained throughout that grown-up readers may enjoy it as much as children. This 'Covey' consists of the twelve children of a hard-pressed Dr. Partridge out of which is chosen a little girl to be adopted by a spoiled, fine lady. We have rarely read a story for boys and girls with greater pleasure. One of the chief characters would not have disgraced Dickens' pen."--=LITERARY WORLD.= =The Little Princess of Tower Hill.= By L. T. MEADE. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price 75 cents. "This is one of the prettiest books for children published, as pretty as a pond-lily, and quite as fragrant. Nothing could be imagined more attractive to young people than such a combination of fresh pages and fair pictures; and while children will rejoice over it--which is much better than crying for it--it is a book that can be read with pleasure even by older boys and girls."--=Boston Advertiser.= For sale by all booksellers, or sent postpaid on receipt of price by the publisher, =A. L. BURT, 52-58 Duane Street, New York.= TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES: 1. Minor changes have been made to correct obvious typesetter's errors; otherwise, every effort has been made to remain true to the author's words and intent. 2. In the advertising pages at the end of this book, the names of books and reviewers were set in bold type-face; this is indicated by a = at the beginning and end of the words in bold.
