their good deeds are recorded."

Smiles and tears alternate as the delicate humor and tender pathos
succeed each other through these delightful character sketches. We do
not hope for popularity for the book--we are _sure of it_.

LION, THE MASTIFF

=FROM LIFE=

By A. G. SAVIGNY

With Introduction by REV. PRINCIPAL CAVEN, D.D.

=CLOTH, 50 CENTS NET=

An ingenious and clever humane story in which "Lion" tells the
narrative of his life, to quote Principal Caven, "with more vivacity
than some famous men have exemplified in memoirs of themselves." It
should be in the hands of every boy and girl in Canada. The author has
woven into her story a great deal of useful information to guide us in
our treatment of dumb animals.
