Little Winifred’s efforts to find some children of whom she reads in
a book lead to the acquaintance of a neighbor of the same name, and
this acquaintance proves of the greatest importance to Winifred’s own
family. Through it all she is just such a little girl as other girls
ought to know, and the story will hold the interest of all ages.

_The Children on the Top Floor_
By NINA RHOADES Large 12mo Cloth Illustrated by Bertha Davidson $1.00
In this book little Winifred Hamilton, the child heroine of “Winifred’s
Neighbors,” reappears, living in the second of the four stories of a
New York apartment house. On the top floor are two very interesting
children, Betty, a little older than Winifred, who is now ten, and
Jack, a brave little cripple, who is a year younger. In the end comes
a glad reunion, and also other good-fortune for crippled Jack, and
Winifred’s kind little heart has once more indirectly caused great
happiness to others.

_How Barbara Kept Her Promise_
By NINA RHOADES Large 12mo Cloth Illustrated by Bertha Davidson $1.00
Two orphan sisters, Barbara, aged twelve, and little Hazel, who is
“only eight,” are sent from their early home in London to their
mother’s family in New York. Faithful Barbara has promised her father
that she will take care of pretty, petted, mischievous Hazel, and how
she tries to do this, even in the face of great difficulties, forms the
story which has the happy ending which Miss Rhoades wisely gives to all
her stories.

Rosamond lives in Richmond, Va., with her big brother, who cannot give
her all the comfort that she needs in the trying hot weather, and she
goes to the seaside cottage of an uncle whose home is in New York. Here

Girl Next Door,” and after some complications are straightened out,
bringing Rosamond’s honesty and kindness of heart into prominence, all
are made very happy.

It will at once be understood that the “boy” of the story is Alfred the
Great in his youth, but it cannot be understood how delightful a story
this is until it is seen and read. The splendid pictures of George
Varian make this book superior among juveniles.
