=The King of the Golden River:= A LEGEND OF STIRIA. By JOHN RUSKIN.
Written fifty years or more ago, and not originally intended for publication, this little fairy tale soon became known and made a place for itself.
=Little Peterkin Vandike.= By CHARLES STUART PRATT.
The author's dedication furnishes a key to this charming story:
"I dedicate this book, made for the amusement (and perchance instruction) of the boys who may read it, to the memory of one boy, who would have enjoyed as much as Peterkin the plays of the Poetry Party, but who has now marched, as they will march one day, out of the ranks of boyhood into the ranks of young manhood."
=Will o' the Mill.= By ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON.
An allegorical story by this inimitable and versatile writer. Its rare poetic quality, its graceful and delicate fancy, its strange power and fascination, justify its separate publication.

In these three stories Mrs. Johnston once more introduces us to the "Little Colonel," the dainty maiden who has already figured as the heroine of two previous stories, "The Little Colonel" and "Two Little Knights of Kentucky," and who has won her way into the hearts of old and young alike. She is more winsome and lovable than ever.
Since the time of "Little Women," no juvenile heroine has been better beloved of her child readers than Mrs. Johnston's "Little Colonel."
=A Puritan Knight Errant.= By EDITH ROBINSON, author of "A Little Puritan Pioneer," "A Little Puritan's First Christmas," "A Little Puritan Rebel," etc.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated $1.20 _net_ (postage extra).
The charm of style and historical value of Miss Robinson's previous stories of child life in Puritan days have brought them wide popularity. Her latest and most important book appeals to a large juvenile public. The "knight errant" of this story is a little Don Quixote, whose trials and their ultimate outcome will prove deeply interesting to their reader.
