Things Will Take a Turn.
By BEATRICE HARRADEN, author of "s.h.i.+ps that Pa.s.s in the Night."
The charm of this tale is its delicate, wistful sympathy. It is the story of a sunny-hearted child, Rosebud, who a.s.sists her grandfather in his dusty, second-hand bookshop. One cannot help being fascinated by the sweet little heroine, she is so engaging, so natural; and to love Rosebud is to love all her friends and enter sympathetically into the good fortune she brought them.
Among the Lawmakers.
By EDMUND ALTON.
"The book is a diverting as well as an instructive one. Mr. Alton was in his early days a page in the Senate, and he relates the doings of Congress from the point of view he then obtained. His narrative is easy and piquant, and abounds in personal anecdotes about the great men whom the pages waited on."--CHRISTIAN UNION.
