=A Hedge Fence.= A story that will be particularly pleasing to boys,
most of whom will find in its hero a fair representation of themselves.
16mo, 60 cents.
=An Endless Chain.= From the introduction, on the first page, of the
new superintendent of the Packard Place Sabbath-school, to the end,
there is no flagging of interest in this bright, fresh, wholesome
story. Illustrated. 12mo., $1.50.
=Side by Side.= Short illustrated stories from Bible texts for the help
of boys and girls in their every-day duties. 16mo., cloth, 60 cents.
=Christie’s Christmas.= No more charming little heroine can be found
than the Christie of this volume, and the story of her journey to
spend Christmas, with the great variety of characters introduced, all
of them original and individual in their way, is perfectly novel and
interesting.
As a guide to teachers, rich in suggestions and directions for methods
of teaching, etc., there is nothing better than =Pansy’s Scrap Book=.
12mo., cloth, illustrated, $1.00.
In fact all of Pansy’s books have some special charm or attraction
which makes them a power for good wherever read.

from year to year. The highest order of fiction, the
most inspiring, lifting, and refining poetry, the most
instructive lessons in history and natural science, the most
entertaining records of travel and adventure, the finest
literary and biographical articles, appear in their pages.

will possess an intelligence and richness of mind beyond
