Conduct of life
Worth reading by all who delight in domestic
romance.—_Fall River Daily News._
The practical instructions in housewifery, which are
abundant, are set in the midst of a bright, wholesome
story, and the little housewives who figure in it are
good specimens of very human, but at the same time very
lovable, little American girls. It ought to be the
most successful little girls’ book of the season.—_The
Advance._
A LITTLE WOMAN. By _Ella Farman_. 16mo. 1 00
The daintiest of all juvenile books. From its merry
pages, winsome Kinnie Crosby has stretched out her warm
little hand to help thousands of young girls.
A WHITE HAND. By _Ella Farman_. 12mo. Ill. 1 50
A genuine painting of American society. Millicent and
Jack are drawn by a bold, firm hand. No one can lay
this story down until the last leaf is turned.
_WIDE AWAKE._
AN ILLUSTRATED MAGAZINE
For the Young Folks.
$2.00 PER ANNUM. POSTAGE PREPAID.
Edited by ELLA FARMAN.
Published by D. LOTHROP & CO., Boston, Mass.
It always contains a feast of fat things for the little
folks, and folks who are no longer little find there
lost childhood in its pages. We are not saying too much
when we say that its versatile editor—Ella Farman, is
more fully at home in the child’s wonder-land than any
other living American writer. She is thoroughly _en
rapport_ with her readers, gives them now a sugar plum
of poesy, now a dainty jelly-cake of imagination, and
cunningly intermixes all the solid bread of thought
that the child’s mind can digest and assimilate.—_York
True Democrat._
PANSY’S PAGE.

published. Four friends, each a brilliant girl in her
way, tired of Saratoga and Newport, try a fortnight
at the new summer resort on Chautauqua Lake, choosing
the time when the National Sunday-school Assembly is
in camp. Rev. Drs. Vincent, Deems, Cuyler, Edward
Eggleston, Mrs. Emily Huntington Miller, move
prominently through the story.
HOUSEHOLD PUZZLES. By _Pansy_. 12mo. Illustrated 1 50

beautiful girls seek to solve this “puzzle.” Piquant,
humorous, but written with an intense purpose.
