Oliver Optic owes his popularity to a pleasant 
style, and to a ready sympathy with the dreams, 
topes, aspirations, and fancies of the young people 
for whom he writes. He writes like a wise, over- 
grown boy, and his books have therefore a fresh¬ 
ness and raciness rarely attained by his fellow 
scribes. — Christian Advocate.

blood and warm the heart. Optic always does 
: this, while at the same time he improves the taste 
; and elevates the moral nature. The coming gen- 
i eration of men will never know how much they 
! are indebted for what is pure and enobling to his 
I £ writings. — R. 1. Schoolmate.

Oliver Optic is the apostplic successor, at the

the “Woodville Stories,” by the publication o

pulled them out of the pile two hours since, ant 
arc yet devouring them out in the summer-hous 
(albeit autumn leaves cover it) oblivious to mu ran 
time. — N. T. Leader.
