SELF AND SELF-SACRIFICE 



OB, 

 NELLY'S STORY. 



BY ANNA LISLE. 



"A very beautifhl story, with characters well drawn, scenery vividly described, and 

 interest admirably sustained. The tendency of the volume is not only unexceptionable, 

 but excellent in a Christian point of vrow. Wa have seldom seen a book in which the 

 best and highest aim is so manifest without the attractiveness of the tale being at all 

 lessened by the embodiment of ro.i^ioua principles." Eclectic Review. 



" The story is so delightful, and \he whole spirit of the book so pure, that it compels 

 our admiration." Daily Netcg. 



"Since ' Cnrrer Bell' we have read nothing more genuine, nor more touching. 

 'Nelly's Story ' has power to carry the reader right through with it, and can hardly fail 

 to impress a moral of inestimable importance." Carlitle Journal. 



" Admirably written, pervaded throughout by fine, correct, and wholesome senti- 

 ments." Utorning Post. 



" Its excellent moral tone, and keen observation, are sure to render the book wid*ly 

 popular." Jokit Bull. 



Netty's Story' is a good one. It is one of the best we hare read for a long time." 



" Abounding- ia interest. We can hardly conceive a more suitable gift-book." 

 Lady's Neiczpaper. 



" Will be w*-lcT*ed, read, and talked about." Gentleman'* ZTapazine. 



" ' JJeliy's'Story ' iatoid in.-8och. a good aad pleasant way, and withal is so useful and 

 world-like, tfest we trust it may bring to its authoress the fame that she is well able to 

 upport." Tait't Magazine. 



' We recognize and proclaim in the authoress of this thrilling tale a quality beyond 

 mere ability geuius of a very high order. We claim for Anna Lisle a place amongst 

 the most distinguished writers of her age. The story is a brilliant effort of refined ^nd 

 sanctified imagination throughout, quite as fascinating as anything in the way of story, 

 whether told by Scott, Stowe, Dicsens, or Currer Bell." Sentinel.

QUICKSANDS 



A TALE. 



BY ANNA LISLE, 



" It ia a thoroughly woman's book. We can fairly say that we have seldom met with 

 a graver or more strikin? warning against the consequences of over eagerness about 

 worldly position and advantages, more forcibly and, at the same time, gracefully con- 

 yeyed." Literary Gazette. 



"Contains a great deal of quiet and powerful writing. Marty, the maid of Mra. 

 Grey, might pass for a creation of Dickens. The moral of ' Quicksands ' ia at onco com- 

 prehensive and striking." Weekly Mail.
