I.

THE COURTSHIP of
SWEET ANNE PAGE

By Ellen V. Talbot

A brisk, dainty little love story incidental to “The Merry Wives of Windsor,” full of fun and frolic and telling of the courtship of Sweet Anne Page by the three lovers: Abraham Slender, the tallow-faced gawk, chosen by her father; Dr. Caius, the garlic-scented favorite of her mother; and the “gallant Fenton,” the choice of her own wilful self.


II.

THE SANDALS

By Rev. Z. Grenell

A beautiful little idyl of sacred story about the sandals of Christ. It tells of their wanderings and who were their wearers, from the time that they fell to the lot of a Roman soldier when Christ’s garments were parted among his crucifiers to the day when they came back to Mary, the Mother of Jesus. The book exhibits both strength and beauty of literary style.


III.

MISS PHILURA

By Florence Morse Kingsley
Author ofTitus,” “Prisoners of the Sea,” etc.

An entertaining story woven around the “New Thought,” which is finding expression in Christian Science, Divine Healing, etc., in the course of which Miss Philura makes drafts upon the All-Encircling Good for a husband and various other things, and the All-Encircling Good does not disappoint her.
