"A capital book; full of startling incident, clever dialogue, admirable descriptions of sky and water in all their aspects, and plenty of fun."--_Sheffield Independent._ TOM FINCH'S MONKEY, And other Yarns. By JOHN C. HUTCHESON. With 2 full-page Illustrations in black and tint. Crown 8vo, cloth extra, 1_s._ 6_d._ This is a collection of sea-stories. "Tom Finch's Monkey" is about a gallant lieutenant and his pet chimpanzee, and will make many boys laugh; while the escape of "The Cranky Jane" will excite their deepest interest; and as for "Jim Newman's Yarn," the real story of the great sea-serpent, it will fairly enchant them. Grave and gay alike, these yarns are suited to almost any taste. BY MRS. R. H. READ. SILVER MILL: A Tale of the Don Valley. By Mrs. R. H. READ. With 6 full-page Illustrations by JOHN SCHÖNBERG, in black and tint. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, 3_s._ 6_d._ The story of a girl and boy. The chief interest centres around Ruth, who is supposed to be the orphan child of a working-man, but who eventually turns out to be the daughter of the cynical, though essentially kind-hearted, owner of Silver Mill. In tracing the character of Ruth as she develops from an impulsive girl to noble womanhood, the author has drawn a picture at once pleasing and suggestive. DORA: Or a Girl without a Home. By Mrs. R. H. READ. With 6 full-page Illustrations. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, 3_s._ 6_d._ The story of a friendless orphan girl, who is placed as pupil-teacher at the school in which she was educated, but is suddenly removed by hard and selfish relatives, who employ her as a menial as well as a governess.

The character of Dora is a very sweet one, and the interest of the story is so sustained that it can scarcely fail to please the reader.

There is in it a freshness, simplicity, and naturalness very engaging."--_Harper's Magazine._ "It is no slight thing, in an age of rubbish, to get a story so pure and healthy."--_The Academy._ "The heroine is a beautiful character, well conceived and well portrayed. The tale is a fascinating one."--_Schoolmistress._ "Mrs. Read has succeeded in writing an exciting tale. The character of Dora is one which every girl would do well to imitate."--_The Schoolmaster._ OUR DOLLY: Her Words and Ways. By Mrs. R. H. READ. With many Woodcuts, and a Frontispiece in colours.
