loth extra, 3_s._ 6_d._ "Another book for girls we can warmly commend. There is a delightful piquancy in the experiences and trials of a young English girl who studies painting in Paris."--_Saturday Review_. Down the Snow Stairs: Or, From Good-night to Good-morning. By ALICE CORKRAN. With 60 Illustrations by GORDON BROWNE. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 3_s._ 6_d._ "A fascinating wonder-book for children."--_Athenaeum_. "A gem of the first water, bearing upon every page the mark of genius. It is indeed a Little Pilgrim's Progress."--_Christian Leader_. Gold, Gold, in Cariboo: A Story of Adventure in British Columbia. By CLIVE PHILLIPPS-WOLLEY. With 6 page Illustrations by G. C. HINDLEY. Crown 8vo, cloth extra, 3_s._ 6_d._ "It would be difficult to say too much in favour of _Gold, Gold in Cariboo_. We have seldom read a more exciting tale of wild mining adventure in a singularly inaccessible country. There is a capital plot, and the interest is sustained to the last page."--_The Times_. "Adventure? there's enough of it here, in all conscience, and the greed for gold is taken at its true worth from beginning to end. Boys who learn from it that there are lots of things in this world worth having besides gold, and even without gold, will have imbibed a lesson 'very necessary for these times,' and will have had plenty of blood-thrilling moments."--_Daily Chronicle_. BY SARAH DOUDNEY. Under False Colours: A Story from Two Girls' Lives. By SARAH DOUDNEY. With 6 page Illustrations by G. G. KILBURNE. _New Edition_. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, 4_s._ "Sarah Doudney has no superior as a writer of high-toned stories--pure in style, original in conception, and with skilfully wrought-out plots; but we have seen nothing from her pen equal in dramatic energy to this book."--_Christian Leader_. BY ANNIE E. ARMSTRONG. Three Bright Girls: A Story of Chance and Mischance. By ANNIE E. ARMSTRONG. With 6 page Illustrations by W. PARKINSON. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, 3_s._ 6_d._ "Among many good stories for girls this is undoubtedly one of the very best. The three girls whose portraits are so admirably painted are girls of earnest, practical, and business-like mood. Ever bright and cheerful, they influence other lives, and at last they come out of their trials and difficulties with honour to themselves and benefits to all about them."--_Teachers' Aid_. A Very Odd Girl: or, Life at
