HELEN JACKSON'S WRITINGS. 



BAMONA. A Story. i2mo. Cloth. Price, $1.50. 

 (8oth thousand.) 



The Atlantic Monthly says of the author that she is "a Murillo in litera- 

 ture," and that the story "is one of the most artistic creations of American 

 literature." Says a lady: "To me it is the most distinctive piece of work we 

 have had in this country since ' Uncle Tom's Cabin,' and its exquisite finish of 

 style is beyond that classic." " The book is truly an American novel," says 

 the Boston Advertiser. " Ramona is one of the most charming creations of 

 modern fiction," says CHARLES D. WARNER. " The romance of the story is 

 irresistibly fascinating," says The Independent. "The best novel written by a 

 woman since George Eliot died, as it seems to me, is Mrs. Jackson's ' Ramona,' " 

 says T. W. HIGGINSON. 



ZEPH. A Posthumous Story. 121110. Cloth. 

 Price, $1.25. 



Those who think that all the outrage and wrong are on the side of the man, 

 and all the suffering and endurance on the side of the woman, cannot do better 

 than read this sad and moving sketch. It is written by a woman ; but never, I 

 think, have I heard of more noble and self-sacrificing conduct than that of the 

 much-tried husband in this story, or conduct more vile and degrading than that 

 of the woman who went by the name of his wife. Such stories show how much 

 both sexes have to forgive and forget. The author, who died before she could 

 complete this little tale of Colorado life, never wrote anything more beautiful for 

 its insight into human nature, and certainly never anything more instinct with 

 true pathos. A writer of high and real gifts as a novelist was lost to the world 

 by the untimely death of Mrs. Jackson. The Academy, London. 



BETWEEN WHILES. A Collection of Sto- 

 ries. I2mo. Cloth. Price, $1.25. 



Mrs. Helen Jackson's publishers have collected six of her best short stories 

 into this volume. Most of them appeared in magazines in the last year or two 

 of her life. " The Inn of the Golden Pear," the longest and by far the strongest 

 of them all, is, however, entirely new to the public. 



Outside of her one grea romance (" Ramona "), the author has never appealed 

 to the human heart with more simple and beautiful certainty than in these de- 

 lightful pictures. Bulletin, San Francisco. 



Mrs. Helen Jackson's " Little Bel's Supplement," the touching story of a 

 young schoolmistress in Prince Edward's Island, is not likely to be forgotten by 

 any one who has read it. The high and splendid purpose that directed the 

 literary work of ' H. H.," and which is apparent in nearly everything that came 

 from her pen, was supported by a peculiar power, unerring artistic taste, and 

 a pathos all her own. This charming tale and one about the Adirondacks and 

 a child's dream form part of the contents of this posthumous volume, to which, 

 on her death-bed, she gave the beautiful title " Between Whiles." It is worthy 

 to be placed alongside of her most finished pieces. Commercial A dvertiser, 

 New York.
