JEMIMA. 



A Story of English Family Life. By ADELAIDE. 

 With Frontispiece. 



The Times says: " 'Jemima,' by Adelaide, is another tale that 

 girls should care to read, with sufficient proportion of story, and of a 

 more original type than girls' books generally are. The humour, of 

 which there is an unusual proportion for such works, is not, perhaps, 

 -of a very subtle or rich quality, but it is easy and simple, and appropriate 

 to the characters. Any humour, so long as it is neither vulgar nor 

 obscene, is surely preferable to the long-drawn melancholy which is too 

 apt to pervade girls' books for what reason we could never under- 

 stand; girls are no more naturally prone to sadness than boys." 



The Scotsman says : "A better story of its kind than ' Jemima' 

 cannot easily be met with. The book is written with a freshness 

 and exuberant buoyancy of manner that suit the subject admirably." 



The Academy says: "'Jemima' is a very natural and 

 charming story of a very natural and charming little girl. It is 

 exactly what it pretends to be ' a story of English family life ' but 

 it has a distinctness of quality which is by no means common in stories 

 of English family life." 



The Daily Chronicle says : " The story of English family life 

 told by Adelaide, under the title of ' Jemima,' is of a much more 

 realistic character. Lively and amusing throughout, there is also an 

 element of good sense introduced, which keeps the juvenile escapades 

 within reasonable bounds, and extracts a lesson even from naughtiness."

 ITALY REVISITED. 



A sequel to " Italy and her Capital." By 

 E. S. G. S. 



The Christian says : " In these picturesque chapters the 

 rreader has many vivid and pleasant glimpses of the fair and sunny 

 South ; the people and their ways ; those who are doing Christian 

 work among them, and various personal experiences of the author. 

 An appendix gives much interesting information about the Italian 

 patriot Garibaldi, and the book altogether will serve to brighten 

 many a leisure hour."
