A NEW NOVEL OF NEIV YORK LIFE. 



Averages. 



By Eleanor Stuart, author of "Stone- 

 pastures." I 2mo. Cloth, Si. 50. 



The brilliant author has had every opportunity to know 

 her New York well. She has been able, therefore, to avoid 

 the extremes of "high life " and "low life" which have 

 seemed to many to constitute the only salient phases of 

 New York. She paints men and women of every day, and 

 sketches the curious, interdependence and association or impingement of differing 

 circles. "Averages " is a brilliant study of actualities. 



"The author of 'Averages' has no need of striving after cleverness; it comes 

 naturally to her." — Chicago Times -Herald.

'' i'o all railroad men this book, which is tastefully got 

 up in a neat binding with an illustration of a locomotive on 

 the cover, will be specially interesting, while the reading public in general will appre- 

 ciate its many merits as a story in which scenes taken from real life figure largely." — 

 Haverhill Gazelle. 



Mr. Warman holds a unique position among our tellers of tales, since he alone is 

 a practical railroad man, who knows the work, and has done it, in all its details." —

 are to be found in Cy Warman's hook."— Philadelphia Times.
