_STRAIGHT ON._ A story of a boy’s school-life in France. By the author of “The Story of Colette.” With 86 Illustrations by Edouard Zier. 320 pages. 8vo. Cloth, $1.50. “It is long since we have encountered a story for children which we can recommend more cordially. It is good all through and in every respect.”--_Charleston News and Courier._ “A healthful tale of a French school-boy who suffers the usual school-boy persecution, and emerges from his troubles a hero. The illustrations are bright and well drawn, and the translation is excellently done.”--_Boston Commercial Bulletin._ “A real story-book of the sort which is difficult to lay down, having once begun it. It is fully illustrated and handsomely bound.”--_Buffalo Courier._ “The story is one of exceptional merit, and its delightful interest never flags.”--_Chicago Herald._ ILLUSTRATED EDITION OF “COLETTE.” _THE STORY OF COLETTE_, a new, large-paper edition. With 36 Illustrations. 8vo. Cloth, $1.50. The great popularity which this book has attained in its smaller form has led the publishers to issue an illustrated edition, with thirty-six original drawings by Jean Claude, both vignette and full-page. “This is a capital translation of a charming novel. It is bright, witty, fresh, and humorous. ‘The Story of Colette’ is a fine example of what a French novel can be, and all should be.”--_Charleston News and Courier._ “Colette is French and the story is French, and both are exceedingly pretty. The story is as pure and refreshing as the innocent yet sighing gayety of Colette’s life.”--_Providence Journal._ “A charming little story, molded on the simplest lines, thoroughly pure, and admirably constructed. It is told with a wonderful lightness and raciness. It is full of little skillful touches, such as French literary art at its best knows so well how to produce. It is characterized by a knowledge of human nature and a mastery of style and method which indicate that it is the work rather of a master than of a novice.... Whoever the author of ‘Colette’ may be, there can be no question that it is one of the prettiest, most artistic, and in every way charming stories that French fiction has been honored with for a long time.”--_New York Tribune._ _HERMINE’S TRIUMPHS._ A Story for Girls and Boys. By MADAME COLOMB. With 100 Illustrations. 8vo. Cloth. The popularity of this charming story of French home life, which has passed through many editions in Paris, has been earned by the sustained interest of the narrative, the sympathetic presentation of character, and the wholesomeness of the lessons which are suggested. One of the most delightful books for girls published in recent years. It is bound uniformly with “Straight On.” New York: D. APPLETON & CO., 1, 3, & 5 Bond Street.
