TELL ME A STORY. Illustrated by WALTER CRANE.

petition, and we hope she may soon tell us more
stories._"--ATHENÆUM.
"CARROTS": JUST A LITTLE BOY. Illustrated by WALTER
CRANE. Eighth Thousand. Globe 8vo. gilt. 4_s._ 6_d._
"_One of the cleverest and most pleasing stories it
has been our good fortune to meet with for some time.
'Carrots' and his sister are delightful little beings,
whom to read about is at once to be become very fond
of._"--EXAMINER.
THE CUCKOO CLOCK. Illustrated by WALTER CRANE.
Eighth Thousand. Globe 8vo. gilt. 4_s._ 6_d._
"_A beautiful little story.... It will be read with delight
by every child into whose hands it is placed.... Ennis
Graham deserves all the praise that has been, is, and will
be, bestowed on 'The Cuckoo Clock.' Children's stories are
plentiful, but one like this is not to be met with every
day._"--PALL MALL GAZETTE.
=Morgan.=--BARON BRUNO; OR, THE UNBELIEVING PHILOSOPHER,
AND OTHER FAIRY STORIES. By LOUISA MORGAN. Illustrated by
R. CALDECOTT. Crown 8vo. gilt. 5_s._
"_The prettiest collection of stories we have seen for

Hans Christian Andersen's 'Little Mermaid,' and 'Eleven
Swans.'_"--EXAMINER.
=Moulton.=--SWALLOW FLIGHTS. Poems by LOUISA CHANDLER MOULTON.
Extra fcap. 8vo. 4_s._ 6_d._
The ATHENÆUM says:--"_Mrs. Moulton has a real
claim to attention. It is not too much to say of these
poems that they exhibit delicate and rare beauty, marked
originality, and perfection of style. What is still
better, they impress us with a sense of vivid and subtle
imagination, and that spontaneous feeling which is the
essence of lyrical poetry._"
=Moultrie.=--POEMS by JOHN MOULTRIE. Complete Edition. 2 vols.
Crown 8vo. 7_s._ each.

=Mrs. Jerningham's Journal.= A Poem purporting to be the Journal
of a newly-married Lady. Third Edition. Fcap. 8vo. 3_s._ 6_d._
"_It is nearly a perfect gem. We have had nothing so
good for a long time, and those who neglect to read
it are neglecting one of the jewels of contemporary
history._"--EDINBURGH DAILY REVIEW. "_One quality
in the piece, sufficient of itself to claim a moment's
attention, is that it is unique--original, indeed, is not
too strong a word--in the manner of its conception and
execution._"--PALL MALL GAZETTE.
