MY WIFE AND I: 



OR, HARRY HENDERSON'S HISTORY. 



A Novel. 

 By HARRIET BEECHER STOWE. 

 • Illustrated. I vol. l2mo. Cloth, $i 75. 



This charming novel is, in some respects, Mrs. Stowe's most 

 thoughtful and complete book. It is eminently a book for the times, 

 giving the author's individual ideas about the much-vexed Woman 

 Question, including marriage, divorce, suffrage, legislation, and all 

 the rights claimed by the clamorous. 



"A capital story, in which fashionable 

 follies are shown up, fast young ladies 

 weighed in the balance and found want- 

 ing] and the value of true worth ex- 

 hibit ed . "—Port la nd A rgus. 



"Always bright, piquant, and enter- 

 taining, with an occasional touch of 

 tenderness, strong because subtle, keen 

 in sarcasm, full of womanly logic di- 

 rected against unwomanly tendencies. 

 — Boston Journal.
