+  GIRLS OF THE TRUE BLUE: A School Story. By L. T. MEADE. With ten
+  Illustrations by Percy Tarrant.                                  6/
+
+      Girls of all ages are sure to be fascinated by the pathetic and
+      highly interesting narrative of Nan Esterleigh, the orphan girl
+      who makes her home with a friend of her mother's, where she has
+      abundance of nice pets, good companions, and an atmosphere of
+      wholesome comfort, and where she is quite happy until an act of
+      deceit puts her in the power of an older and designing girl, and
+      renders her at times very miserable. This wrong-doing is the
+      shadow over her life, as she finds when Captain Richmond starts
+      the Royal True Blue society, with its prize to be given for the
+      best girl who had cultivated every side of her nature--moral,
+      intellectual, and physical. She is seriously handicapped, and
+      the prize falls, through an error, to the designing girl who has
+      ruined her happiness. Misfortune brings this maiden to a better
+      mind and true repentance, and Nan comes to her own again in the
+      esteem and respect of every one. There are many other attractive
+      girl characters in this entertaining story.

+  A NEST OF GIRLS; or, Boarding School Days. By E. WESTYN TIMLOW. With
+  eight Illustrations by H. R. Richards.                           6/
+
+      Here we are introduced to a bevy of smart, clever, American
+      girls in a boarding-school, just at the time that Winifred
+      Douglas becomes teacher of English Literature there. Winifred
+      was wise, if only four-and-twenty, and the love she felt for her
+      work was only equalled by the sense of responsibility she had
+      for the impressionable girls under her charge. How she helped
+      and influenced them for good, although she 'hurt sometimes,'
+      comes out in the story, which is brimful of life and vivacity.
+      The lady principal and the doings of a circle of immensely smart
+      girls keep up the interest of this wholesome picture of
+      girl-life.

+
+      All spirited maidens will follow with interest the training and
+      development of the character of Evelyn Wynford, heiress of
+      Castle Wynford, who, when she arrives from Tasmania at her
+      uncle's house, which will afterwards be her own, is extremely
+      self-conscious though clever, and is wilful, selfish, vain, and
+      altogether unladylike. Her maid Jasper is her evil genius. As
+      the story develops, her aunt, her cousin, and others begin to
+      have a wholesome influence over her; then certain misdemeanours,
+      which land her in serious trouble, humble her, and leave her
+      much changed and truly repentant. The 'Naughty Girl' becomes
+      transformed into a wise and comely young woman.
+
+  COURAGE AND CONFLICT. A Series of Stories by G. A. HENTY, G.
+  MANVILLE FENN, F. T. BULLEN, FRED WHISHAW, &c. With eight
+  Illustrations by W. Boucher.                                     5/
+
+      The names of the writers here are a guarantee for the sound
+      entertainment provided in this companion volume to _Dash and
+      Daring_, _Peril and Prowess_, and _Venture and Valour_. The
+      story by Mr G. A. Henty is one of pioneering in the days of the
+      early settlers in America, when the natives were troublesome,
+      and who in this case rose up and nearly exterminated the white
+      people. Mr G. M. Fenn tells a funny seaside story; while Andrew
+      Balfour, Captain North, Walter Thornbury, James Patey, Fred
+      Whishaw, Harold Bindloss, and others contribute dashing stories
+      of peril and adventure, and great heroism in the hour of danger.

+  THE KOPJE GARRISON: A Tale of the Boer War. By G. MANVILLE FENN.
+  With eight Illustrations by W. Boucher.                          5/
+
+      Mr Fenn transports his readers to the South African veldt,
+      where, in imagination and in reality, so many of his countrymen
+      have been for the past two years, and helps them to understand
+      by means of this brisk and exciting tale what so many of our
+      gallant soldiers have had to endure. This new story mainly
+      follows the fortunes of two young men in khaki--Drew Lennox and
+      Bob Dickenson--in and around the village of Groenfontein, which
+      is bravely held by a little British force against the Boers.
+      Sometimes half-starved, and subjected to night and day attacks,
+      they make a little Gibraltar of the place, and ever render a
+      good account of themselves. Something is always happening within
+      or without Groenfontein, and in the end the story leaves Drew
+      Lennox captain and V.C.

+
+  A POPULAR GIRL: A Tale of School Life in Germany. With six
+  Illustrations by Jessie Wilson. By MAY BALDWIN.                 3/6
+
+      A bright and naturally told story of school-girl life in
+      Germany, in which the contrasts with school life in this country
+      are strongly brought out. The heroine, a good-looking, clever
+      English girl, in a high-class school in Munich, meets with a
+      smart American girl who sins against many of the written and
+      unwritten laws of etiquette by her pranks and the freedom of
+      her manners and speech; yet all the while she is exceedingly
+      liberal, good-hearted, and well-intentioned, and a good friend
+      of the heroine, whom she shields from blame in connection with
+      an act which led to disastrous consequences. The lady principal,
+      Fräulein Luise, one of the best of women, cautions the heroine
+      about her over-anxiety to be the best girl scholar; in spite of
+      this she works openly and secretly for this end, which is gained
+      at the expense, for a time, of her health and memory. It is
+      while the heroine is at death's door that she learns a lifelong
+      lesson that goodness is by far of more importance than
+      cleverness.

+  COSEY CORNER; or, How they Kept a Farm. By L. T. MEADE. With eighteen
+  Illustrations by Percy Tarrant.                                 3/6
+
+      Mrs L. T. Meade, in her best vein, here tells how four children
+      show great ingenuity and cleverness in playing at keeping a
+      farm, and manage to support themselves for a time from the
+      proceeds. It is a wholesome lesson in self-help, and the reader
+      will be inclined to agree with one of the children that 'there
+      never was anything so nice in all the world as was life at Cosey
+      Corner.' Honeysuckle Farm, the farmer and his wife, and the life
+      there are prettily described, and the story is further helped by
+      the eighteen charming illustrations by Mr Percy Tarrant.

+  'MY PRETTY' AND HER BROTHER 'TOO.' And other Stories. By Mrs
+  MOLESWORTH. Charmingly Illustrated by Lewis Baumer.             3/6
+
+      Mrs Molesworth, always happily inspired when she writes for or
+      about children, here presents ten short stories, in which little
+      children are depicted in her inimitable style. Some of them have
+      a Christmas flavour; all convey in an attractive form some
+      lessons which young folks, and old folks too, would be none the
+      worse for learning, as in 'My Pretty,' 'The Gold Scissors,' and
+      'The Princess and the Fairy,' in which the receipt for happiness
+      is given as unselfishness and shared blessings.
+
+  JERRY DODDS, MILLIONAIRE: A School Yarn of Merriment and Mystery. By
+  H. BARROW-NORTH. With six Illustrations by Harold Copping.      3/6
+
+      Jerry Dodds is the good-hearted and open-handed son of a South
+      African millionaire, and his fortunes are traced from the time
+      he enters Westpool School until he is kidnapped, and recovered
+      in a marvellous way. There are lively times at Westpool--a fire,
+      a steamer adventure, a feast to his school chums given by Jerry
+      Dodds, and abundant adventures, which any boy will follow with
+      breathless interest. The youth of Westpool School are as bright,
+      healthy, mischief-making, and mirth-provoking youngsters as any
+      boy might wish to know. Out of one prank into another seems to
+      have been their motto.

+  by Arthur Rackham.                                              3/6
+
+      Mr Charles R. Kenyon, author of the popular story, _The Young
+      Ranchmen_, here tells a thrilling tale of adventure in which
+      three old chums, in the search for the Inca's treasure in
+      the remote regions of the mighty Andes, procure a little
+      steam-launch for the navigation of the Amazon and some of its
+      feeders, such as the Ucayali. Their whole course teems with
+      remarkable experiences and adventures, and the climax is reached
+      when, after several fights with strange tribes, they are shut up
+      as prisoners in the Incala's treasure-chamber. How they escape,
+      discover gold in great plenty, and begin a large colonisation
+      scheme is told in a spirited manner.
+
+  OUT OF BOUNDS: A Series of School Stories. By ANDREW HOME. With
+  eight Illustrations by Harold Copping.                          3/6
+
+      Mr Andrew Home understands and can write about the average
+      schoolboy with clearness, humour, and adequate knowledge. In
+      this gathering of short stories many phases of boy-life are
+      dealt with, in and out of school. There are humorous adventures,
+      some of which are on the point of ending tragically. All the
+      stories are wholesome and entertaining, and inculcate the
+      virtues of truthfulness, sympathy, bravery, and attention to
+      duty in the battle of life.

+  MORE ANIMAL STORIES. Edited by Robert Cochrane. Including _Rab and
+  his Friends_, by Dr John Brown. Fully Illustrated.              2/6
+
+      One of the finest animal stones ever written, Dr John Brown's
+      _Rab and his Friends_, is placed in the forefront of this
+      volume, with an illustration from the painting of this subject
+      by W. G. Stevenson, R.S.A. Like its predecessor, _Four Hundred
+      Animal Stories_, it comprises a gathering of interesting,
+      pathetic, or amusing animal tales, from _Chambers's Journal_,
+      and from the works of Captain Brown, Charles Boner, Edward
+      Jesse, John M'Diarmid, and Christopher North. Mary Russell
+      Mitford found stories of which the animal world were the heroes
+      'more touching than the grander histories of men and women.'
+      Though the proper study of mankind is man, much may he learned
+      by such stories of sympathy and kindness to the lower creation.
+      A closing chapter bears on kindness to animals, as do also many
+      of the illustrations.

+
+      No reader of this author's _Laddie_ has ever been able quite to
+      forget that pathetic story. After a lapse of many years the
+      same, writer has written its counterpart, in which the heroine,
+      booked as a nurse for South Africa, stays at home for the
+      apparently less heroic duty of keeping house for a rather
+      shiftless father, and in doing so she develops much quiet
+      heroism and unselfishness, shown further in her nursing work in
+      the village, during which she falls a victim to an epidemic. The
+      story shows how a very quiet life may be as heroic as one spent
+      amid the rude alarms of war.

+THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE
+PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS WORK
+
+To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
+distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
+(or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License (available with this file or online at

+
+
+Section 1.  General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic works
+
+1.A.  By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement.  If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B.  "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark.  It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement.  There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement.  See
+paragraph 1.C below.  There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.  See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C.  The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works.  Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D.  The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work.  Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change.  If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E.  Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1.  The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the

+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever.  You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder.  Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4.  Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5.  Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6.  You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form.  However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7.  Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

+     the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is
+     owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
+     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+     returns.  Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+     sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+     electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+     of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+     distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9.  If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the

+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation

+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.

+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
