HAVE YOU READ
=MY OPINIONS=
AND
BETSEY BOBBET’S
By JOSIAH ALLEN’S WIFE?
AUTHOR OF
“SAMANTHA AT THE CENTENNIAL,” AND “MY WAYWARD PARDNER.”
=IF NOT GET IT THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY.=
---------------------------------------------------------
This book is one of those indescribable ones, of which little can be
said except that it is rich and spicy throughout, readable and
fascinating, brimfull of humor and sharp things—yet not a line in it,
that does not point a moral, and teach a lesson. It will create a
sensation whenever read, and no one will enjoy it better than the
ladies, although it deals with them in a plain way. The men will like
it, the children will like it, all will like and laugh over it, and
remember its teachings long afterwards.
The Public will make no mistake in purchasing this book, as it is full
of good things, which will at once arrest and rivet the attention of the
reader.
Never was a character’s lines drawn more distinctly than that of
Josiah’s wife, and her originals will be found among the acquaintances
of many. Cute, wise, shrewd and observing, with a vein of strong common
sense, yet simple and innocent as a child, she will keep the reader
crammed with sharp hits and funny observations.
Betsey Bobbet’s opinions act upon Josiah’s wife’s, as settings do upon
diamonds: adding to their brightness and resplendency.
The book contains 432 Pages, and is _filled with Pictures_, put in, as
the author says, to _explain the text_.
