 ** It has all the characteristics of its brilliant author, — unflagging entertam< 

 tnent, helpfulness, suggestive, practical hints, and a contagious vitality that sets 

 erne's blood tingling. Whoever has read 'Ten Times One is Ten' will knew just 

 what we mean. The fact that thirty thousand copies of this last-named volume 

 have l>een sold gives one some idea of its hold on the popular mind. We predia 

 thai the new volume, as being a more charming story, will have quite as great a 

 parish of readers. The gist of the book is to show how possible it is for the best 

 spirits of a community, through wise organization, to form themselves into a lever 

 by means of which the whole tone of the social status may be elevated, and tin 

 good and highest happiness of the helpless many be attained through the sei» 

 denying exertions of the powerful few." 



From the Louisville Daily Ledger. 

 *• Mr. Hale thinks, rightly, that this movement of the women of the land ts 

 put down an undeniable evil was not a wisely directed one. He is willing enough 

 to have a Crusade, but let it be more in the line of women's work, and let it ap- 

 peal to all the best instincts of our nature, — not the resistant ones. Men are not 

 going to be brow-beaten into being good, especially by the sex that has hitherto 

 been styled the ' gentler ; ' and we don't much wonder at it. To come and for- 

 cibly take possession of a man's place of business, and insist upon prajnng and 

 "inging him out of it, may have, at bottom, a very commendable motive to insti- 

 gate it ; but there is a right and a wrong way of doing every thing. This is the 

 (vrong way. Now, in his ' New Crusade,' Mr. Hale gives us the clew to a mucli 

 better, more reasonable, and altogether more popular way of exalting the aodai 

 Status in any given community."
