--Girl Neighbours. With 6 Illustrations. 3_s._

A story for girls, told in that quaint, delightful fashion which has made
Miss Tytler's books so popular and attractive. The introduction of the two
young ladies from London, who represent the modern institutions of
professional nursing and schools of cookery, is very happily effected.

"One of the most effective and quietly humorous of Miss Sarah Tytler's
stories. Very healthy, very agreeable, and very well written."--_The
Spectator_.

it is delicate, and as sweet as it is simple."--_Woman's World_.

3_s._ 6_d._

A sympathetic description of life at Newnham College. After the tripos
excitements, some of the students leave their dream-world of study and
