Wayside Courtships. 



BY 



HAMLIN GARLAND. 



" 'Wayside Courtshii:)s' is without a doubt a book to be read, and its author is a 

 writer to be' watched. We have not had such a welcome American arrival since the 

 introduction of Miss Wilkins." — To-Day. 



" Where so much is good it is an ungrateful task to linger unduly over faults or 

 styles and taste. I have read 'Wayside Courtships' with keen pleasure, and I 

 warmly recommend the work to my readers. The two prose poems 'At the 

 Beginning ' and * The End of Love is Love ' are pregnant with the beauty closely 

 akin to the mystical silhouettes in Olive Schreiner's ' Dreams.' ''—Critic. 



" It would be difficult to decide in which of the many beautiful characteristics lies 

 the chief charm of these brief sketches. The keen observing powers of the author have 

 resulted in the presentation of exquisitely natural scenes which -are vividly pictured by 

 a skilful pen." — Liverpool Mercury.

A Galaxy Girl. 



A New Novel. 



BY 



LINCOLN SPRINGFIELD. 



"One w^ould welcome a dozen such chapters as the one headed, 'A pennanent 

 object lesson to gamblers.' There is no clumsiness, no indecision, in Mr. Springtield's 

 workmanship. His style is clean and correct, his humour is natural, and he has a grip 

 of human nature and a skill in the contrivance of plot and exciting incident which give 

 the impression that, admirable though this novel is, it gives only an indication of his 

 fullest possibilities as a writer of popular fiction." — Daily Mail.
