SONS AND DAUGHTERS. By the author of "The Story of Margaret Kent." 12mo. $1.50.
An eminent Boston critic writes: "This should be the novel of the season. The lively fancy of the author touches lightly and wittily upon several of the popular interests of the day, such as Shakespeare societies, the Browning craze, mind cure, etc., and from titlepage to finis there is not a dull paragraph. So brilliant and entertaining a story as 'Sons and Daughters' is not often met with, and it should have, as it deserves, the widest reading."
