hard,
soiled hand there, and then Guy took her away and brought her to our
home, where she has been ever since, the sweetest, merriest, happiest
little creature that ever a man called wife, or a woman sister. She does
leave her things round a little, to be sure, and she is not always ready
for breakfast. I guess she never will wholly overcome those habits, but
I can put up with them now better than I used to. Love makes a vast
difference in our estimate of others, and she could scarcely ruffle me
now, even if she kept breakfast waiting every morning, and left her
clothes lying three garments deep upon the floor. As for Guy--but his
happiness is something I cannot describe. Nothing can disturb his peace,
which is as firm as the everlasting hills. He does not caress her as
much as he did once, but his thoughtful care of her is wonderful, and
she is never long from his sight without his going to seek her.

God bless them both and keep them ever as they are now, at peace with
Him and all in all to each other.

THE MANOR SCHOOL. By MRS. L.T. MEADE. Ten Full Page
Illustrations.

A sweetly written and popular story of girl life. Full of fun and
adventure. Told in a manner to interest and amuse young people of
any age.

Very few authors have achieved a popularity equal to that of Mrs.
Meade as a writer of stories for girls. Her characters are living
beings of flesh and blood. Into the trials and crosses of these the
reader enters at once with zest and hearty sympathy. Mrs. Meade
always writes with a high moral purpose. Cloth. 12mo. Price, $1.25.

THE DEFENSE OF THE CASTLE. A Story for Boys and Girls. By TUDOR
JENKS, author of "Imaginotions," "World's Fair Book," "Boys' Book
of Explorations," "Galopoff, the Talking Pony," "Gypsy, the Talking
Dog," etc.

This is a good, lively, fighting story, but not bloodthirsty. It
tells of a boy and girl who, during the absence of their father at
the Crusades, with the help of an old soldier defended the castle
from the attack of an armed force led by a treacherous relative.
The time is about that of Ivanhoe. Cloth, 12mo. Price, $1.00.
