Governesses -- Fiction; Love stories; New England -- Fiction; Young women -- Fiction
By COURTNEY WELLINGTON. A self-made man, and a thorough democrat like
Congressman Hardie, will always be an interesting character, and one
that appeals to all genuine Americans. The romance pervading the
pages of the book is a delicate one, and skilfully interwoven with
the various political events. The heroine is an original conception
on the part of the writer, and we see her in some phases of city
life not before portrayed in romance. Cloth bound.

AMY WARREN.
By A. SYDNEY LOGAN. Author of “Not on the Chart.” The appeal of this
story lies in its naturalness. The hero, Harold Littleton, is not an
impossible conception, but a real man of flesh and blood, faults and
virtues. A new phase of American country life is also set forth with
great fidelity. The worth of this book to the average reader is in
the immediate refreshment and absolute change of ideas he can get by
opening its pages anywhere. It contains some fine imaginative work
and has heroic love for its theme. Cloth bound, gilt top.

KATHARINE BARRY.
By HARRY HUGHES. The sacrifice of sentiment to religion is always a
fascinating topic. In the case of this novel, it is particularly so,
because of the earnestness and evident sincerity of the devoted
young girl. She was only a farmer’s daughter, but she passed through
most extraordinary experiences, even to being the medium of
psychic-phenomena. It is a most interesting book. Cloth bound, gilt
top.

MISS HOGG; The American Heiress.
By MRS. V. C. JONES. The adventures of an American girl in London are
used as the foundation of this story. Miss Hogg was an uncultured
heiress, bent on capturing a coronet. In furtherance of her plans,
she uses almost desperate means, and places herself in very perilous
situations. Her American wit, however, helps her safely through them
all, and, at the close of the book she is respected and happy. Cloth
bound, gilt top.

INVISIBLE LIGHT; or, The Electric Theory of Creation.
By GEORGE W. WARDER. “He holds there are only three elemental
substances in nature: spirit, electricity and matter. Matter is
controlled by electricity, and electricity is controlled by spirit
intelligence. That in discovering electricity man has found the
working force of Deity, and uses it in all fields of human effort.
The arguments are convincing, and the book attractive and
entertaining.”—_The Kansas City Star._ Beautifully bound in cloth.
