Mr. Hopkins’s first essay at bedtime stories has met with such approval that this second book of “Sandman” tales has been issued for scores of eager children. Life on the farm, and out-of-doors, will be portrayed in his inimitable manner, and many a little one will hail the bedtime season as one of delight. A Puritan Knight Errant. By Edith Robinson, author of “A Little Puritan Pioneer,” “A Little Puritan’s First Christmas,” “A Little Puritan Rebel,” etc. Library 12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated . . . $1.50 The charm of style and historical value of Miss Robinson’s previous stories of child life in Puritan days have brought them wide popularity. Her latest and most important book appeals to a large juvenile public. The “knight errant” of this story is a little Don Quixote, whose trials and their ultimate outcome will prove deeply interesting to their reader. The Rival Campers; or, the Adventures of Henry Burns. By Ruel P. Smith. 12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated . . . $1.50 Here is a book which will grip and enthuse every boy who is lucky enough to secure it. It is the story of a party of typical American lads, courageous, alert, and athletic, who spend a summer camping on an island off the Maine coast. Every boy reader will envy them their adventures,—yacht-racing, canoeing, and camping,—which culminate in their discovery and capture of a gang of daring robbers; but the influence of wholesome, outdoor life in the development of manly character is well brought out. Henry Burns, the leader of the boys, is a character in juvenile fiction of whom we are likely to hear again. The Young Section Hand; or, The Adventures of Allan West. By Burton E. Stevenson, author of “The Marathon Mystery,” etc. 12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated . . . $1.50 Every branch of railroading fascinates the average American boy. The shops, the telegraph and signal systems, the yard and track work, the daily life of danger which confronts every employee, whether he be the ordinary workman or the engineer of a limited express train, and the mysterious “office” which controls every branch of the work,—each holds out its allurements to him. In this story Mr. Stevenson’s hero is just the right sort, a manly lad of sixteen who is given a chance as a section hand on a big Western railroad, and whose experiences are as real as they are thrilling. He is persecuted by the discharged employee whose place he took, and becomes involved in complications which nearly cause his undoing; but his manliness and courage are finally proven, and the reward is his for duty done at any cost. Born to the Blue. By Florence Kimball Russel. 12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated . . . $1.00
