GEORGIE.

The Sayings and Doings of his Paw, his Maw, Little Albert, and the Bull Pup.

“The charm of the book is the permanent charm of all literature, according to Matthew Arnold’s admirable definition. Georgie is a singularly acute and humorous interpretation of the home life led by the American who is neither too rich to be aping the English nor too poor to avoid the other extreme of Europeanism in slum or hovel. The book is worth reading as holding ‘a mirror up to nature,’ and it is also worth praising because it discloses between its lines a kindly and unspoiled nature on the part of the author.”—Chicago Tribune.

Cloth, decorative, 6³⁄₈ x 5⁷⁄₈ in. With ten illustrations by Ralph Bergengren. $1.00
