  DOROTHY BROWN

  By NINA RHOADES

  Illustrated by Elizabeth Withington Large 12mo Cloth $1.35 _net_

  THIS is considerably longer than the other books by this favoritewriter, and with a more elaborate plot, but it has the same winsomequality throughout. It introduces the heroine in New York as a littlegirl of eight, but soon passes over six years and finds her at a selectfamily boarding school in Connecticut. An important part of the storyalso takes place at the Profile House in the White Mountains. The charmof school-girl friendship is finely brought out, and the kindness ofheart, good sense and good taste which find constant expression in thebooks by Miss Rhoades do not lack for characters to show these best ofqualities by their lives. Other less admirable persons of course appearto furnish the alluring mystery, which is not all cleared up until thevery last.

  "There will be no better book than this to put into the hands of a girl in her teens and none that will be better appreciated by her."--_Kennebec Journal._
