"As for the hero of this story, 'His One Fault' was
absent-mindedness. He forgot to lock his uncle's stable door, and
the horse was stolen. In seeking to recover the stolen horse, he
unintentionally stole another. In trying to restore the wrong horse
to his rightful owner, he was himself arrested. After no end of
comic and dolorous adventures, he surmounted all his misfortunes by
downright pluck and genuine good feeling. It is a noble contribution
to juvenile literature."--_Woman's Journal._

=Peter Budstone.= By J. T. TROWBRIDGE. Illustrated. $1.25.

"TROWBRIDGE'S other books have been admirable and deservedly
popular, but this one, in our opinion, is the best yet. It is a
story at once spirited and touching, with a certain dramatic and
artistic quality that appeals to the literary sense as well as to
the story-loving appetite. In it Mr. TROWBRIDGE has not lectured
or moralized or remonstrated; he has simply shown boys what they
are doing when they contemplate hazing. By a good artistic impulse
we are not shown the hazing at all; when the story begins, the
hazing is already over, and we are introduced immediately to the
results. It is an artistic touch also that the boy injured is not
hurt because he is a fellow of delicate nerves, but because of his
very strength, and the power with which he resisted until overcome
by numbers, and subjected to treatment which left him insane. His
insanity takes the form of harmless delusion, and the absurdity of
his ways and talk enables the author to lighten the sombreness
without weakening the moral, in a way that ought to win all boys to
his side."--_The Critic._

among their plunder was a silver medal that had been given to one
John Harrison by the Humane Society for rescuing from drowning a
certain Benton Barry. Now Benton Barry was one of the wretched
