GROUND IVY.

By MYRA SWAN.

The Times.-"Ground ivy clings lovingly to the soil as Edith Harding did to her ancient Yorkshire home among the fir trees and the heather. Her story makes a long book-in two parts 'Love of a Place' and 'Love of a Man '-and Myra Swan, who is far from being a prolific author, has taken her time in weaving an atmosphere about her tale, and lingering over its talk (a little bookish sometimes), its scenery and its few, but likeable, well-featured characters. A book generously conceived and agreeably written, which readers who do not like being rushed or excited will enjoy."

Evening Standard.-" There is a restraint about the treatment of all the passions involved that is refreshing, and the sanity and brightness of the dialogue make the book entirely readable."

PRIDE OF THE MORNING.

By AGNES GIBERNE.

Times.-"Miss Gibeme, apart from her scientific books, is a writer of stories for the young; and there is a trace of this in her story of the youth and love of Phyllys, 'the Pride o' the Morning.'"

Birmingham Post.-"The story will be found pleasant reading."

Morning Leader.-"The heroine is a delightful study of character, fresh and natural all through. This is a book of some distinction. It is thoughtfully written, and in point of execution shows a keen eye for the niceties of style."
