The Atlantic Monthly pronounces " Heidi " " a delightful book . . . chann^ 

 ingly told. The hook is, as it should be, printed in clear type, well leaded, and 

 is bound in excellent taste. Altogether it is one which we suspect will be 

 looked back upon a generation hence by people who now read it in their child- 

 hood, and they will hunt for the old copy to read in it to their children." 



A leading Sunday-school paper further says : " No better books for a Sunday- 

 school library have been published for a long time. Scholars of all ages will 

 read them with delight. Teachers and parents will share the children's enjoy- 

 ment." 



The steadily increasing sales of these books attest to their extreme popularity 

 and value, and it has been truly said that their publication marks an era in the 

 history of juvenile literature. Their sweetness, purity, and freedom from any 

 sectarian bias, have secured for them a place in the Sunday-school libraries of 

 all denominations, and make them as welcome to those having charge of the 

 young as they are to the children themselves. 



OLD NEW ENGLAND DAYS. A story of true life. EySorniEM. 

 Damon. Second edition. i6mo. $1.25. 



" Reading ' Old New England Days ' is like talking with an old lady who has 

 long since passed the allotted " three score and ten," and now delights in noth- 

 ing so much as in recalling the far distant days of her youth." — Concord Evcti- 

 i7ig Gazette. 



" The beauty of the tale is in the touches of Yankee life and lore, joy and 

 sorrow, which crop out at every turn of the page, like dandelions in a summer 

 tield. " — Christian Journal. 



MAHALY SAWYER; OR, PUTTING YOURSELF IN HER 

 PLACE. By S. E. Douglass. i6mo. Cloth, gi 25. 



This is a very «<r/OT« and a remarkably interesting little book. 7"//!? Chris- 

 tian Register, one of the ablest of critical reviews, says: '■ If the number of 

 people vitally interested in the motif oi this bright story should all be the num- 

 ber of its readers, it would have a cirajilation equal to ' Uncle Tom's Cabin.' 

 ... It is a realistic tale, which, in its way, puts Mr. Howells to shame."
