PLOITS AND VOYAGES.

"This belongs to the 'Young Folks' Heroes of History' series, and deals
with a greater and more interesting man than any of its predecessors.
With all the black spots on his fame, there are few more brilliant and
striking figures in English history than the soldier, sailor, courtier,
author, and explorer, Sir Walter Ralegh. Even at this distance of time,
more than two hundred and fifty years after his head fell on the
scaffold, we cannot read his story without emotion. It is graphically
written, and is pleasant reading, not only for young folks, but for old
folks with young hearts."--_Woman's Journal._

DRAKE:

THE SEA-LION OF DEVON.

Drake was the foremost sea-captain of his age, the first English admiral
to send a ship completely round the world, the hero of the magnificent
victory which the English won over the Invincible Armada. His career was
stirring, bold, and adventurous, from early youth to old age.

BOOKS OF PARTICULAR INTEREST TO YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN

=HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW=

His Life, His Works, His Friendships. By GEORGE
LOWELL AUSTIN. Profusely illustrated. Cloth,
$2.00. New edition. Formerly published by
subscription.

"We have here a clear and popular presentation of the poet's literary
life. The details of his personal and private life, or at least so much
of it as belongs by right strictly to his family, has been avoided, and
that properly. What the public have a right to know is found in this
volume, in a style that is easy and pleasing. Here you have Longfellow
as a child, as a college student, and as a professor in Bowdoin College;
and especially does he appear here as a man of letters. It is a charming
volume."--_Christian Standard._

=LIFE AND TIMES OF WENDELL PHILLIPS=

By GEORGE LOWELL AUSTIN. With steel portrait and
illustrations. Cloth, $1.50. New edition. The only
complete Life of the great agitator.

"The life of a man who was so strongly identified with one of the most
stirring periods in American history must necessarily be one of much
interest, and Mr. Austin has succeeded in presenting its features in a
very attractive way. Portions of Mr. Phillips's most important public
addresses are given, and there are reminiscences of the man by some of
his close friends and associates."--_Philadelphia Record._
