Day, superior to any similar series._
Striking for the Right. Price, $1.75.
Here are beautiful sentiments whose price is above gold. The book is
bright and witty and wise. Our boys and girls will read it and inwardly
digest, and talk it over to their genuine profit, as we can testify by
family experience.--_Springfield Republican._
Walter Macdonald. Price, $1.50.
Walter Macdonald is deservedly popular. Not a few strange and striking
events are wrought into the intensely interesting narrative, and the
motive underlying all is high and Christian.
The Wadsworth Boys. Price, $1.50.
It is not sensational, but thoughtful, pleasant, and wholesome; truly
exalting whatever is noble, and putting under ban whatever is mean,
though seemingly respectable.--_Episcopal Register._

The story is startling, and told with great power. It is a picture of
the life of our time, and will hold readers with a magnetism they cannot
resist.
The Blount Family. Price, $1.50.
In style it is unusually discriminating and careful, and it abounds with
scenes of domestic life, which are so striking, yet so true to human
nature that they seem to bring the reader into close companionship with
the characters of the narrative.--_Youth's Companion._
The Marble Preacher. Price, $1.50.
Representing the elements of a true Christian character, and the method
of their development. The literary art and moral tone are excellent.
Evening Rest. Price, $1.50.
It is a work of rare originality and beauty; the pictures of real life
have a curious charm.
Margaret Worthington. Price $1.50
The story is told in a quiet, self-contained, yet very interesting way;
the characters are clearly conceived, and develop themselves naturally
and effectually, and religion appears at once humanely practical and
divinely attractive.
Coming to the Light. Price, $1.50.
This is a story of school-life, fresh, healthy, and sparkling; the
danger of yielding to temptations and the need of decision of character
are lessons taught in an effective way.
Ralph's Possession. Price, $1.50.
With very charming pictures of home-life, it is chiefly a revelation of
the deeper heart-life.--_Watchman and Reflector._
