The Little Citizen

By M. E. WALLER

~Illustrated by H. Burgess, 12mo, blue cloth, illustrated cover, $1.25~

This is a right royal, good juvenile story. It has the narrative of the
development of a waif of New York streets in the simple and wholesome
life of a Vermont farmer neighborhood. The lad, Miffins, is taken into
the household of Jacob Foss, a farmer. The story tells of the
transformation wrought in Miffins's character. It is a story of heart
power; and with its study of the evolution of a street gamin into a
useful little citizen, and with its graphic descriptions of Vermont
country life in summer and winter, it makes a book of unusual power and
interest.
