"It is not only a story of adventure, but the
volume abounds in information concerning this most
powerful of remaining Indian tribes. The work of
the author has been well supplemented by the
artist."--_Boston Traveller._
_CROWDED OUT O' CROFIELD._ The story of a country boy who fought his way
to success in the great metropolis. With 23 Illustrations by C. T. HILL.

"There are few writers who know how to meet the
tastes and needs of boys better than does William
O. Stoddard. This excellent story teaches boys to
be men, not prigs or Indian hunters. If our boys
would read more such books, and less of the
blood-and-thunder order, it would be rare good
fortune."--_Detroit Free Press._

_CHRISTINE'S CAREER._ A Story for Girls. By PAULINE KING. Illustrated.
12mo. Cloth, specially bound, $1.50.
The heroine of Miss King's charming story shares
artist life in rural France and in Paris before

is divided between New York and Boston and the
seashore. The story is fresh and modern, relieved
by incidents and constant humor, and the lessons
which are suggested are most beneficial.
