A holiday novelty, cut shape of butterfly, with twelve color designs by
Miss L.B. Humphrey. This really original and charming novelty imitates
in outside appearance a large, handsome tropic butterfly; but, on
parting the wings, we find between, on a dozen leaves shaped like the
wings, the gracefully told story--a prose poem in fact--of "Girl Goldie"
and her strange adventures with the butterflies. Miss L.B. Humphrey, the
popular illustrator and winner of the Prang's Christmas Card Prizes, has
designed the wing covers and the twelve exquisite illustrations in
colors. $1.25.

Anna Maria's Housekeeping.
By MRS. S.D. POWER. During the appearance the past two years of these

housewives to be the most helpful and complete domestic literature, and
on the other hand, men and women of letters have warmly praised their
literary excellence. The publishers, therefore, confidently offer the
volume to the public as a standard work upon practical domestic economy.
