PUBLICATIONS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.

JED. A Boy's Adventures in the Army of '61-'65.

A story of battle and prison, of peril and escape. By WARREN LEE GOSS, author of "The Soldier's Story of his Captivity at Andersonville and other Prisons," "The Recollections of a Private" (in the Century War Series).

In this story the author has aimed to furnish true pictures of scenes in the great Civil War, and not to produce sensational effects. The incidents of the book are real ones, drawn in part from the writer's personal experiences and observations as a soldier of the Union, during that war. The descriptions of the prison are especially truthful, for in them the author briefly tells what he himself saw. One of the best war stories ever written. Boys will read it with avidity.

THE WALKS ABROAD OF TWO YOUNG NATURALISTS.

From the French of Charles Beaugrand. By DAVID SHARP, M.B., F.L.S., F.Z.S., President of the Entomological Society of London.

A fascinating narrative of travel and adventure, in which is introduced much valuable information on natural history subjects, and a reading of the book will tend to foster an interest in zoology.

By LYDIA HOYT FARMER, author of "Boys' Book of Famous Rulers," etc.

ROLF AND HIS FRIENDS.

By J A K, author of "Birchwood," "Fitch Club," etc.

A healthful, stimulating story, showing the advantage that every boy must necessarily gain from a.s.sociation with intelligent, progressive young people, no matter what their color or condition in life may be.

The incidents are fresh and natural, the conversations bright and piquant, and the interest well sustained, while incidentally there is a valuable leaven of information.

CECIL'S KNIGHT.

By E. B. HOLLIS, author of "Cecil's Cousins," etc. A story of no impossible knight, but of a very real, natural, and manly boy, who, through perseverance, good sense, and genuine courage, fought his way from poverty to success.

"We recommend 'Cecil's Knight' as an excellent book to put into a boy's hand.--" _Beacon._

RED CARL.

By J. J. MESSMER. A story dealing with the labor question, socialism, and temperance, and one of the best, all points considered, that treats of these subjects popularly.

"It would be difficult to find a healthier, more stimulating, and more suggestive story to put into the hands of the young."

RECOLLECTIONS OF A PRIVATE.

A Story of the Army of the Potomac. By WARREN LEE GOSS, author of "Jed."

With over 80 ill.u.s.trations by Chapin and Shelton.

Among the many books about the civil war there is none which more clearly describes what took place among the rank and file of the Union Army, while on the march or on the battle-field, than the story given by Mr. Goss in this volume.

"It is one of the handsomest, as well as one of the most valuable works in American war literature."--_Boston Globe._

MAKING THE MOST OF LIFE.

By Rev. J. R. MILLER, D.D., author of "Silent Times."

The following is an extract from Dr. Miller's preface: "These chapters are written with the purpose and hope of stimulating those who may read them to _earnest and worthy living_.... If this book shall teach any how to make the most of the life G.o.d has entrusted to them, that will be reward enough for the work of its preparation."

DOCTOR LAMAR.

A powerful work of fiction by a new author.

There can be no doubt that "Doctor Lamar" is a remarkable novel. It has originality in subject and treatment. The hero is drawn with a master hand. The picture of the heroine is a revelation of innocence and beauty of the most exquisite English type. The love story which runs through the book, like a golden thread, is an idyl. Few novels are so well calculated to appeal to a large cla.s.s of readers, comprising, as it does, food both for thought and recreation.

A WEB OF GOLD.

By KATHARINE PEARSON WOODS, author of "Metzerott, Shoemaker."
