BARBARA WINSLOW, REBEL. By Elizabeth Ellis. With illustrations by John
Rae, and colored inlay cover.
The following, taken from story, will best describe the heroine: A
TOAST: "To the bravest comrade in misfortune, the sweetest companion in
peace and at all times the most courageous of women."--_Barbara
Winslow_. "A romantic story, buoyant, eventful, and in matters of love
exactly what the heart could desire."--_New York Sun_.
SUSAN. By Ernest Oldmeadow. With a color frontispiece by Frank Haviland.
Medalion in color on front cover.
Lord Ruddington falls helplessly in love with Miss Langley, whom he
sees in one of her walks accompanied by her maid, Susan. Through a
misapprehension of personalities his lordship addresses a love
missive to the maid. Susan accepts in perfect good faith, and an
epistolary love-making goes on till they are disillusioned. It
naturally makes a droll and delightful little comedy; and is a story
that is particularly
clever in the telling.
WHEN PATTY WENT TO COLLEGE. By Jean Webster. With illustrations by C. D.
Williams.
"The book is a treasure."--_Chicago Daily News_. "Bright, whimsical,
and thoroughly entertaining."_--Buffalo Express_. "One of the best
stories of life in a girl's college that has ever been written."
--_N. Y. Press_. "To any woman who has enjoyed the pleasures of a
college life this book cannot fail to bring back many sweet
recollections; and to those who have not been to college the wit,
lightness, and charm of Patty are sure to be no less delightful."
--_Public Opinion_.
THE MASQUERADER. By Katherine Cecil Thurston. With illustrations by
Clarence F. Underwood.
"You can't drop it till you have turned the last page."--_Cleveland
Leader_. "Its very audacity of motive, of execution, of solution,
almost takes one's breath away. The boldness of its denouement is
sublime."--_Boston Transcript_. "The literary hit of a generation.
The best of it is the story deserves all its success. A masterly
story."--_St. Louis Dispatch_. "The story is ingeniously told, and
cleverly constructed."--_The Dial_.
THE GAMBLER. By Katherine Cecil Thurston. With illustrations by John
Campbell.
"Tells of a high strung young Irish woman who has a passion for
gambling, inherited from a long line of sporting ancestors. She has
a high sense of honor, too, and that causes complications. She is a
very human, lovable character, and love saves her."--_N. Y. Times_.
