WINDYHAUGH.

_A Novel. By_ GRAHAM TRAVERS, _author of "Mona Maclean. Medical

Student," "Fellow Travellers," etc. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50_.

"Windyhaugh" shows an infinitely more mature skill and more subtle

humor than "Mona Maclean" and a profounder insight into life. The

psychology in Dr. Todd's remarkable book is all of the right kind;

and there is not in English fiction a more careful and penetrating

analysis of the evolution of a woman's mind than is given in

Wilhelmina Galbraith; but "Windyhaugh" is not a book in which there

is only one "star" and a crowd of "supers." Every character is

limned with a conscientious care that bespeaks the true artist, and

the analytical interest of the novel is rigorously kept in its

proper place and is only one element in a delightful story. It is a

supremely interesting and wholesome book, and in an age when

excellence of technique has reached a remarkable level, "Windyhaugh"

compels admiration for its brilliancy of style. Dr. Todd paints on a

large canvas, but she has a true sense of proportion.--_Blackwood's

Magazine._

For truth to life, for adherence to a clear line of action, for arrival

at the point toward which it has aimed from the first, such a book as

"Windyhaugh" must be judged remarkable. There is vigor and brilliancy.

It is a book that must be read from the beginning to the end and that it

is a satisfaction to have read.--_Boston Journal._

Its easy style, its natural characters, and its general tone of

earnestness assure its author a high rank among contemporary

novelists.--_Chicago Tribune._
