Tam'd by the cruel season, crowd around
The winnowing store, and claim the little boon
Which Providence assigns them."
It is pleasant to think that they seldom appeal in vain. "Crumbs for the birds" are scattered by kindly little hands everywhere in winter, and in many a house a pet sonsie little robin is a cherished visitor, always welcome to his small share of the good things of this life.
Our ramble might be indefinitely prolonged and still be full of interest and instruction, but in these simple remarks enough has been shown, I trust, to lead many to think and observe closely every, even the minutest, thing that catches their attention whilst out for a ramble in lanes and fields, even a microscopic moss upon an old wall has been suggestive of many lovely thoughts, with which I will conclude our ramble and this chapter.

"It was not all a tale of eld,
That fairies, who their revels held By moonlight, in the greenwood shade Their beakers of the moss-cups made. The wondrous light which science burns Reveals those lovely jewelled urns! Fair lace-work spreads from roughest stems And shows each tuft a mine of gems. Voices from the silent sod, Speaking of the Perfect God. Fringeless, or fringed, and fringed again, No single leaflet formed in vain; What wealth of heavenly wisdom lies Within one moss-cup's mysteries! And few may know what silvery net, Down in its mimic depths is set To catch the rarest dews that fall Upon the dry and barren wall. Voices from the silent sod, Speaking of the Perfect God." L. N.

EFFIE HETHERINGTON
BY
ROBERT BUCHANAN
Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"Mr. Robert Buchanan has written several novels ... but among those which we know, there is not one so nearly redeemed by its ability and interest.... The girl is simply odious; but Mr. Buchanan is a poet—it would seem sometimes malgré lui, in this instance it is quand même—and he dowers the worthless Effie with a rugged, half-misanthropic, steadfast lover, whose love, never rewarded, is proved by as great a sacrifice as fact or fiction has ever known, and who is almost as striking a figure as Heathcliff in 'Wuthering Heights.'"—World.
WORKS BY JOSEPH CONRAD
I.
AN OUTCAST OF THE ISLANDS
Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"Subject to the qualifications thus disposed of (vide first part of notice), 'An Outcast of the Islands' is perhaps the finest piece of fiction that has been published this year, as 'Almayer's Folly' was one of the finest that was published in 1895.... Surely this is real romance—the romance that is real. Space forbids anything but the merest recapitulation of the other living realities of Mr. Conrad's invention—of Lingard, of the inimitable Almayer, the one-eyed Babalatchi, the Naturalist, of the pious Abdulla—all novel, all authentic. Enough has been written to show Mr. Conrad's quality. He imagines his scenes and their sequence like a master; he knows his individualities and their hearts; he has a new and wonderful field in this East Indian Novel of his.... Greatness is deliberately written; the present writer has read and re-read his two books, and after putting this review aside for some days to consider the discretion of it, the word still stands."—Saturday Review.
II.
ALMAYER'S FOLLY
Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"This startling, unique, splendid book."
Mr. T. P. O'Connor, M.P.
"This is a decidedly powerful story of an uncommon type, and breaks fresh ground in fiction.... All the leading characters in the book—Almayer, his wife, his daughter, and Dain, the daughter's native lover—are well drawn, and the parting between father and daughter has a pathetic naturalness about it, unspoiled by straining after effect. There are, too, some admirably graphic passages in the book. The approach of a monsoon is most effectively described.... The name of Mr. Joseph Conrad is new to us, but it appears to us as if he might become the Kipling of the Malay Archipelago."—Spectator.
THE EBBING OF THE TIDE
BY
LOUIS BECKE
Author of "By Reef and Palm"
Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"Mr. Louis Becke wields a powerful pen, with the additional advantage that he waves it in unfrequented places, and summons up with it the elemental passions of human nature.... It will be seen that Mr. Becke is somewhat of the fleshly school, but with a pathos and power not given to the ordinary professors of that school.... Altogether for those who like stirring stories cast in strange scenes, this is a book to be read."—National Observer.
PACIFIC TALES
BY
LOUIS BECKE
With a Portrait of the Author
Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"The appearance of a new book by Mr. Becke has become an event of note—and very justly. No living author, if we except Mr. Kipling, has so amazing a command of that unhackneyed vitality of phrase that most people call by the name of realism. Whether it is scenery or character or incident that he wishes to depict, the touch is ever so dramatic and vivid that the reader is conscious of a picture and impression that has no parallel save in the records of actual sight and memory."—Westminster Gazette.
"Another series of sketches of island life in the South Seas, not inferior to those contained in 'By Reef and Palm.'"—Speaker.
"The book is well worth reading. The author knows what he is talking about and has a keen eye for the picturesque."—G. B. Burgin in To-day.
"A notable contribution to the romance of the South Seas."
T. P. O'Connor, M.P., in The Graphic.
PADDY'S WOMAN
BY
HUMPHREY JAMES
Crown 8vo., 6s.
"Traits of the Celt of humble circumstances are copied with keen appreciation and unsparing accuracy." Scotsman.
"... They are full of indescribable charm and pathos."—Bradford Observer.
"The outstanding merit of this series of stories is that they are absolutely true to life ... the photographic accuracy and minuteness displayed are really marvellous."
Aberdeen Free Press.
"'Paddy's Woman and Other Stories' by Humphrey James; a volume written in the familiar diction of the Ulster people themselves, with perfect realism and very remarkable ability.... For genuine human nature and human relations, and humour of an indescribable kind, we are unable to cite a rival to this volume."
The World.
"For a fine subtle piece of humour we are inclined to think that 'A Glass of Whisky' takes a lot of beating.... In short Mr. Humphrey James has given us a delightful book, and one which does as much credit to his heart as to his head. We shall look forward with a keen anticipation to the next 'writings' by this shrewd, 'cliver,' and compassionate young author."—Bookselling.
CLARA HOPGOOD
BY
MARK RUTHERFORD
EDITED BY
REUBEN SHAPCOTT
Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
(The Third and Cheaper Edition is now ready, Crown 8vo.,
cloth, 3s. 6d.)
"The writer who goes by the name of Mark Rutherford is not the most popular novelist of his time by any means. There are writers with names which that recluse genius has never heard of, probably, whose stories give palpitations to thousands of gentle souls, while his own are quietly read by no more than as many hundreds. Yet his publisher never announces a new story by the Author of 'Mark Rutherford's Autobiography,' and 'The Revolution in Tanner's Lane,'—which we believe to be one of the most remarkable bits of writing that these times can boast of—without strongly exciting the interest of many who know books as precious stones are known in Hatton Garden.... 'Clara Hopgood' is entirely out of the way of all existing schools of novel-writing.... Had we to select a good illustration of 'Mark's way' as distinguished from the way of modern storytellers in general, we should point to the chapter in which Baruch visits his son Benjamin in this narration. Nothing could be more simple, nothing more perfect."—Pall Mall Gazette.
A FIRST FLEET FAMILY
BEING A HITHERTO
UNPUBLISHED NARRATIVE
OF CERTAIN REMARKABLE
ADVENTURES COMPILED
FROM THE PAPERS OF
SERGEANT WILLIAM
DEW, OF THE MARINES
BY
LOUIS BECKE and WALTER JEFFERY
Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"As convincingly real and vivid as a narrative can be."—Sketch.
"No maker of plots could work out a better story of its kind, nor balance it more neatly."—Daily Chronicle.
"A book which describes a set of characters varied and so attractive as the more prominent figures in this romance and a book so full of life, vicissitude, and peril, should be welcomed by every discreet novel reader."—Yorkshire Post.
"A very interesting tale, written in clear and vigorous English."—Globe.
"The novel is a happy blend of truth and fiction, with a purpose that will be appreciated by many readers; it has also the most exciting elements of the tale of adventure."—Morning Post.
THE TALES OF JOHN OLIVER HOBBES
With a Frontispiece Portrait of the Author
Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"The cleverness of them all is extraordinary."—Guardian.
"The volume proves how little and how great a thing it is to write a 'Pseudonym.' Four whole 'Pseudonyms' ... are easily contained within its not extravagant limits, and these four little books have given John Oliver Hobbes a recognized position as a master of epigram and narrative comedy."—St. James's Gazette.
"As her star has been sudden in its rise so may it stay long with us! Some day she may give us something better than these tingling, pulsing, mocking, epigrammatic morsels."—Times.
"There are several literary ladies, of recent origin, who have tried to come up to the society ideal; but John Oliver Hobbes is by far the best writer of them all, by far the most capable artist in fiction.... She is clever enough for anything."—Saturday Review.
THE HERB MOON
BY
JOHN OLIVER HOBBES
Third Edition, Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"The jaded reader who needs sauce for his literary appetite cannot do better than buy 'The Herb Moon.'"—Literary World.
"A book to hail with more than common pleasure. The epigrammatic quality, the power of rapid analysis and brilliant presentation are there, and added to these a less definable quality, only to be described as charm.... 'The Herb Moon' is as clever as most of its predecessors, and far less artificial."—Athenæum.
THE STICKIT MINISTER AND SOME COMMON MEN
BY
S. R. CROCKETT
Eleventh Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"Here is one of the books which are at present coming singly and at long intervals, like early swallows, to herald, it is to be hoped, a larger flight. When the larger flight appears, the winter of our discontent will have passed, and we shall be able to boast that the short story can make a home east as well as west of the Atlantic. There is plenty of human nature—of the Scottish variety, which is a very good variety—in 'The Stickit Minister' and its companion stories; plenty of humour, too, of that dry, pawky kind which is a monopoly of 'Caledonia, stern and wild'; and, most plentiful of all, a quiet perception and reticent rendering of that underlying pathos of life which is to be discovered, not in Scotland alone, but everywhere that a man is found who can see with the heart and the imagination as well as the brain. Mr. Crockett has given us a book that is not merely good, it is what his countrymen would call 'by-ordinar' good,' which, being interpreted into a tongue understanded of the southern herd, means that it is excellent, with a somewhat exceptional kind of excellence."—Daily Chronicle.
THE LILAC SUN-BONNET
BY
S. R. CROCKETT
Sixth Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"Mr. Crockett's 'Lilac Sun-Bonnet' 'needs no bush.' Here is a pretty love tale, and the landscape and rural descriptions carry the exile back into the Kingdom of Galloway. Here, indeed, is the scent of bog-myrtle and peat. After inquiries among the fair, I learn that of all romances, they best love, not 'sociology,' not 'theology,' still less, open manslaughter, for a motive, but, just love's young dream, chapter after chapter. From Mr. Crockett they get what they want, 'hot with,' as Thackeray admits that he liked it."
Mr. Andrew Lang in Longman's Magazine.
THE RAIDERS
BY
S. R. CROCKETT
Eighth Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"A thoroughly enjoyable novel, full of fresh, original, and accurate pictures of life long gone by."—Daily News.
"A strikingly realistic romance."—Morning Post.
"A stirring story.... Mr. Crockett's style is charming. My Baronite never knew how musical and picturesque is Scottish-English till he read this book."—Punch.
"The youngsters have their Stevenson, their Barrie, and now a third writer has entered the circle, S. R. Crockett, with a lively and jolly book of adventures, which the paterfamilias pretends to buy for his eldest son, but reads greedily himself and won't let go till he has turned over the last page.... Out of such historical elements and numberless local traditions the author has put together an exciting tale of adventures on land and sea." Frankfurter Zeitung.
SOME SCOTCH NOTICES.
"Galloway folk should be proud to rank 'The Raiders' among the classics of the district."—Scotsman.
"Mr. Crockett's 'The Raiders' is one of the great literary successes of the season."—Dundee Advertiser.
"Mr. Crockett has achieved the distinction of having produced the book of the season."—Dumfries and Galloway Standard.
"The story told in it is, as a story, nearly perfect." Aberdeen Daily Free Press.
"'The Raiders' is one of the most brilliant efforts of recent fiction."—Kirkcudbrightshire Advertiser.
THE GREY MAN
BY
S. R. CROCKETT
Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
Also, an Edition de Luxe, with 26 Drawings by
Seymour Lucas, R.A., limited to 250 copies, signed
by Author. Crown 4to., cloth gilt, 21s. net.
"It has nearly all the qualities which go to make a book of the first-class. Before you have read twenty pages you know that you are reading a classic."—Literary World.
"All of that vast and increasing host of readers who prefer the novel of action to any other form of fiction should, nay, indeed, must, make a point of reading this exceedingly fine example of its class."—Daily Chronicle.
"With such passages as these [referring to quotations], glowing with tender passion, or murky with horror, even the most insatiate lover of romance may feel that Mr. Crockett has given him good measure, well pressed down and running over."—Daily Telegraph.
A DAUGHTER OF THE
FEN
BY
J. T. BEALBY
Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"It will deserve notice at the hands of such as are interested in the ways and manner of living of a curious race that has ceased to be." Daily Chronicle.
"For a first book 'A Daughter of the Fen' is full of promise."—Academy.
"This book deserves to be read for its extremely interesting account of life in the Fens and for its splendid character study of Mme. Dykereave." Star.
"Deserves high praise."—Scotsman.
"It is an able, interesting ... an exciting book, and is well worth reading. And when once taken up it will be difficult to lay it down." Westminster Gazette.
IN A MAN'S MIND
BY
JOHN REAY WATSON
Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"We regard the book as well worth the effort of reading."—British Review.
"The book is clever, very clever."—Dundee Advertiser.
"The power and pathos of the book are undeniable."—Liverpool Post.
"It is a book of some promise."—Newsagent.
"Mr. Watson has hardly a rival among Australian writers, past or present. There is real power in the book—power of insight, power of reflection, power of analysis, power of presentation.... 'Tis a very well made book—not a set of independent episodes strung on the thread of a name or two, but closely interwoven to the climax." Sydney Bulletin.
"There is behind it all a power of drawing human nature that in time arrests the attention."—Athenæum.
NANCY NOON
BY
BENJAMIN SWIFT
Second Edition. Cloth, 6s.
Some Reviews on the First Edition.
"'Nancy Noon' is perhaps the strongest book of the year, certainly by far the strongest book which has been published by any new writer.... Mr. Swift contrives to keep his book from end to end real, passionate, even intense.
... If Mr. Meredith had never written, one would have predicted, with the utmost confidence, a great future for Mr. Benjamin Swift, and even as it is I have hopes."—Sketch.
"Certainly a promising first effort."—Whitehall Review.
"If 'Nancy Noon' be Mr. Swift's first book, it is a success of an uncommon kind."—Dundee Advertiser.
"'Nancy Noon' is one of the most remarkable novels of the year, and the author, avowedly a beginner, has succeeded in gaining a high position in the ranks of contemporary writers.... All his characters are delightful. In the heat of sensational incidents or droll scenes we stumble on observations that set us reflecting, and but for an occasional roughness of style—elliptical, Carlyle mannerisms—the whole is admirably written."—Westminster Gazette.
"Mr. Swift has the creative touch and a spark of genius."—Manchester Guardian.
"Mr. Swift has held us interested from the first to the last page of his novel."—World.
"The writer of 'Nancy Noon' has succeeded in presenting a powerfully written and thoroughly interesting story."—Scotsman.
"We are bound to admit that the story interested us all through, that it absorbed us towards the end, and that not until the last page had been read did we find it possible to lay the book down."—Daily Chronicle.
"It is a very strong book, very vividly coloured, very fascinating in its style, very compelling in its claim on the attention, and not at all likely to be soon forgotten."—British Weekly.
"A clever book.... The situations and ensuing complications are dramatic, and are handled with originality and daring throughout."—Daily News.
"Mr. Benjamin Swift has written a vastly entertaining book."—Academy.
MR. MAGNUS
BY
F. REGINALD STATHAM
Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
Some Press Opinions on the First Edition.
"One of the most powerful and vividly written novels of the
day."—Nottingham Guardian.

"Very impressive."—Saturday Review.
"Distinctly readable."—Speaker.
"A remarkable book."
Standard.
"Full of incident."—Liverpool Mercury.

"Will find many appreciative readers."—Aberdeen Free Press.
"Exciting reading."—Daily Mail.
"Can be heartily recommended."—Lloyd's Weekly Newspaper.
"A well-written and capable story."—People.
"Well written."—Literary World.
TROOPER PETER HALKET
OF MASHONALAND
BY
OLIVE SCHREINER
Author of "Dreams,"
"Real Life and Dream Life," &c.
Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"We advise our readers to purchase and read Olive Schreiner's new book 'Trooper Peter Halket of Mashonaland.' Miss Schreiner is one of the few magicians of modern English literature, and she has used the great moral, as well as the great literary, force of her style to great effect."—Daily Chronicle.
"The story is one that is certain to be widely read, and it is well that it should be so, especially at this moment; it grips the heart and haunts the imagination. To have written such a book is to render a supreme service, for it is as well to know what the rough work means of subjugating inferior races."—Daily News.
"Some of the imaginative passages are very fine.... The book is powerfully written."—Scotsman.
"Is well and impressively written."—Pall Mall Gazette.
MRS. KEITH'S CRIME
BY
MRS. W. K. CLIFFORD
With a Portrait of Mrs. Keith by the
Hon. John Collier.
Sixth Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth, 6s.
"Is certainly the strongest book that Mrs. W. K. Clifford has given to the public. It is probably too the most popular."—World.
"It is charmingly told."—Literary World.
"A novel of extraordinary dramatic force, and it will doubtless be widely read in its present very cheap and attractive form."—Star.
"Mrs. Clifford's remarkable tale."—Athenæum.
"Will prove a healthy tonic to readers who have recently been taking a course of shilling shocker mental medicine.... There are many beautiful womanly touches throughout the pages of this interesting volume, and it can be safely recommended to readers old and young."—Aberdeen Free Press.
