Out of School Series

It is the intention of the publishers to include in this series only the best copyright stories for boys and girls by well-known popular authors. This idea has been kept in mind in making the selections, and we can heartily recommend any or all of the stories.

A Roman Maiden By Emma Marshall, author of "Fanny and Her Friends," "Master Martin," etc., etc. 12mo. Cloth. Illustrated. $1.00.

A quaint story of the fourth century which maids of the twentieth century will thoroughly enjoy. Hyacintha is the daughter of one of the most noble houses of Rome, and as such she is permitted to enter the Temple of Vesta as a Vestal Virgin; the greatest honor possible to a daughter of Rome. The charm and simplicity of life in the Temple of Vesta are beautifully described, and a tender little love story gives to the book the needed touch of romance.

The Worst Boy in Town By John Habberton, author of "Helen's Babies," "Phil Fuzzytop," etc., etc. Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth. $1.00.

What Tom Hughes did for the Rugby boy, Habberton has in this volume done for the American village lad. The book is manly and valuable.—New York Herald.

The "worst boy" is simply a lad whose exuberant spirits are eternally leading him into pranks. * * * A pleasant volume for the Boys' Library.—Detroit Free Press.

A Little Turning Aside By Barbara Yechton, author of "We Ten," "Derrick," etc. Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth. $1.00.

The book is as dainty and charming as any published in years. The cover design and illustrations are in keeping with the story itself.—Troy Daily Times.

We recommend the book with pleasure.—Boston Courier.

It is an excellent book for girls, old and young, and should find a place in every home.—Lutheran Observer.

A bright and wholesome story.—The Advance.

The Little Ladies of Ellenwood And Their Hidden Treasure. By Sarah G. Connell. Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth. $1.00.

A delightful story for young people. It has a freshness, interest and purity solely its own.—St. Paul Dispatch.

A story with a moral, and a good one at that. Well and entertainingly told and the characters are ably portrayed.—Burlington Hawkeye.

Sarah G. Connell has written a story in which all the children will delight. It tells of a family of six children who had been reared in luxury by their loving father, and how, when bankruptcy darkened their doors, they all took hold to make life in their altered circumstances still happy and all the more worth living. The story is well told, and there is enough fun scattered through its pages to make the reading joyously interesting. It is a book which every child will enjoy.—Boston Times.

A fresh story which will hold the attention of young folk, especially girls.—Living Church.
