A Story of Home Life in France and England. 

 By EDNA LYALL. With Frontispiece by FRANK 

 MURRAY. 



OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. 



The Daily News says : "The book is full of promise, the story 

 soon deepens into real interest and develops considerable power of 

 construction and character drawing." 



The Spectator says: "The characters are drawn with con- 

 siderable skill, with force, and without exaggeration." 



The Academy says: "The Dean's daughters are perfectly real 

 characters the learned Cornelia especially; the little impulsive 

 French heroine, who endures their cold hospitality and at last wins 

 their affection, is thoroughly charming ; while throughout the book 

 there runs a golden thread of pure brotherly and sisterly love, which 

 pleasantly reminds us that the making and marring of marriage is not, 

 after all, the sum total of real life." 



The Freeman says : " A very pleasing and well-written tale : full 

 of graphic descriptions of French and English life, with incidents and 

 characters well sustained. A book with such pleasant reading, and 

 with such a healthy tone and influence, is a great boon to the young 

 people in our families."
