| 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. | |
From A Nest of Girls. 6/
| A NEST OF GIRLS; or, Boarding School Days. ByE. 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. | |
