BARBARA WINSLOW, REBEL, By Elizabeth Ellis With illustrations by John Rae, and colored inlay cover.
The following, taken from story, will best describe the heroine: A TOAST: "To the bravest comrade in misfortune, the sweetest companion in peace and at all times the most courageous of women."--_Barbara Winslow._ "A romantic story, buoyant, eventful, and in matters of love exactly what the heart could desire."--_New York Sun._
SUSAN, By Ernest Oldmeadow With a color frontispiece by Frank Haviland. Medallion in color on front cover.
Lord Ruddington falls helplessly in love with Miss Langley, whom he sees in one of her walks accompanied by her maid, Susan. Through a misapprehension of personalities his lordship addresses a love missive to the maid. Susan accepts in perfect good faith, and an epistolary love-making goes on till they are disillusioned. It naturally makes a droll and delightful little comedy; and is a story that is particularly clever in the telling.
