JANUARY PUBLICATIONS
OF
D. LOTHROP & COMPANY.
INTERRUPTED. Pansy's new story, will be ready in a few days. It has all
the charm of this most popular author's fascinating style, grown riper
each year, and possessing more of the peculiar power by which she adapts
herself to her varied audience. More than a hundred thousand of Pansy's
books are sold every year. Extra cloth. 12mo, $1.50.
MONEY IN POLITICS. By Hon. J.K. Upton, late assistant secretary of the
United States Treasury. Extra cloth, gilt top. 12mo, $1.25. This volume
presents a complete history of money, or the circulating medium, in the
United States, from the colonial days to the present time. Mr. Edward
Atkinson, in his introduction, pronounces it the most valuable work of
the kind yet published.
THE GRAY MASQUE AND OTHER POEMS. By Mary Barker Dodge. $1.25. The
reputation of this author has been already made. Her name will be
recognized in connection with some of the choicest bits of poetry
contributed to periodical literature in recent years, such as "Indian
Summer," "My Baby," "The Frozen Crew," etc., all of which, and many new
poems of equal excellence, are offered to the public in this unusually
attractive volume.
THE ARNOLD BIRTHDAY BOOK. Edited by his daughters. With an autograph
introductory poem by Edwin Arnold, and choice quotations from his poems
for every day. The many admirers of the "Light of Asia" will gladly
welcome this graceful souvenir of the author, which is handsomely
illustrated and daintily finished. $1.25.
LIFE OF REV. WARREN H. CUDWORTH. By His Sister. 380 pp. $1.50. A simple
and remarkably interesting biography of one of the most useful and
saintly of Christian men. It will be welcomed and read with satisfaction
by all who knew this earnest, noble minister of the gospel, and to those
who never saw him, it will be full of suggestive thoughts.
THE EVOLUTION OF DODD. By William Hanley Smith. (In press.) Extra Cloth.
12mo, $1.00. This remarkable book is destined to create as great a stir,
in its way, as "Ginx's Baby," although written in an entirely different
style. It treats of phases of young life as seen through the spectacles
of a keen-eyed man, sharp enough to let none of the intricacies of the
newer systems of education evade him. It should be read by every parent,
teacher, and public school officer in this or any other country. While
for pure amusement in watching Dodd's evolution, it is one of the
richest books of the season.
