The author writes throughout with good taste, and with a quick eye for the picturesque.—Herald, New York.

It is a pretty story, charmingly written, with cleverly sketched pictures of various types of character.... The book abounds in keen, incisive philosophy, wrapped up in characteristic remarks.—Times, Chicago.

An absorbing story. It is brilliantly and vivaciously written.—Literary World, Boston.

The author has until now been known, so far as we are aware, only by her former story, “Alexia.” Unless signs fail which seldom do fail, these two with which her name is now associated are simply the forerunners of works in a like vein of which American literature will have reason to be proud.—Standard, Chicago.
