om Kathie married. By AMANDA M. DOUGLAS. Price, $1.50. Popular

figured; and in this volume the young lady finds her destiny. The
sweetness and purity of her life is reflected in the lives of all about
her, and she is admired and beloved by all. The delicacy and grace with
which Miss DOUGLAS weaves her story, the nobility of her characters,
the absence of everything sensational, all tend to make this book one
specially adapted to young girls.
A Woman's Inheritance. By AMANDA M. DOUGLAS. Price, $1.50.
"Miss DOUGLAS is widely known as a writer of excellent stories, all of
them having a marked family likeness, but all of them bright,
fascinating, and thoroughly entertaining. This romance has to do with

a rascally trustee, was very near being wrecked, and was only saved by

sustained to the very close, and the reader will follow the fortunes of
the various characters with an absorbed fascination."--_New Bedford
Mercury._

Then she marries the man--But let us not tell the story. The author has
told it in a charming way.
