BIBLIOGRAPHIC KALEIDOSCOPE. THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A GIRL. BY GERTRUDE NICKERSON. A detailed account of a young girl’s experience in the world at large, and the trials which pursue the President of a College Glee Club. Profusely illustrated with Pictures taken from Life. “ Miss Nickerson pursues a gentle and restful method of treating the subject, which shows the influences of country life upon a writer's style. It does not distort plain truth to make an idealized picture. The book abounds in dry wit; for this we would heartily recommend it.” — The Original Push. A JOURNALIST’S IMPRESSION OF TWO CONTINENTS. BY GRACE ELIZABETH PAINE. “This interesting volume, published by the Associated Press, has excited much comment. It is not an ordinary book of travels, but is rather a study of present social problems in Europe and America. The masterly way in which these are staled and discussed bears witness to the deep and conscientious study which the author has given to the subject.”— The Social Science Review. THE TENEMENT ANGEL. BY EVA ANNA PALMER. “A tale pure and simple, having as heroine a woman who is both good and beautiful in her character.”—Daily Chronicle. 2S
