An eminent Boston critic writes: "This should be THE novel of the season. The lively fancy of the author touches lightly and wittily upon several of the popular interests of the day, such as Shakespeare societies, the Browning craze, mind cure, etc., and from titlepage to finis there is not a dull paragraph. So brilliant and entertaining a story as 'Sons and Daughters' is not often met with, and it should have, as it deserves, the widest reading." The remarkable popularity and great sales which made "Margaret Kent" one of the foremost books of the last year (or of the last decade) seem likely to be repeated in this new novel by the same author. It sparkles with the real life and deep feeling, and has the same admirable social setting, that have made "Margaret Kent" a name to conjure by wherever the best of literature is known. #HAPPY DODD.# By ROSE TERRY COOKE, author of "The Deacon's Week," etc. 12mo. $1.50. "Happy Dodd" is a beautiful and tender novel of New-England life especially adapted for home reading, and breathing out a strengthening spirit of Christian love and heroism. #SCOTT'S THE LAY OF THE LAST MINSTREL.# Edited, with Notes and Introduction, by W.
