AN ADMIRABLE NOVEL BY A NEW WRITER.
A STEPSON OF THE SOIL.
By MARY J. H. SKRINE.
Second Impression. 6s.
'Mrs. Skrine's admirable novel is one of those unfortunately rare books which, without extenuating the hard facts of life, maintain and raise one's belief in human nature. The story is simple, but the manner of its telling is admirably uncommon. Her portraits are quite extraordinarily vivid.'—Spectator.
