the book will be a general favorite." Commercial Advertiser.

their sisters, or husbands for their wives, with the assurance that
the book will not only give pleasure, but convey lessons of love

WOMAN IN AMERICA; HER WORK AND HER REWARD.
BY MARIA J. McINTOSH.
One Volume, 12mo., paper covers, 50c.; cloth, 75c.
"We like this work exceedingly, and our fair countrywomen will
admire it still more than we do. It is written in the true spirit,
and evinces extensive observation of society, a clear insight into
the evils surrounding and pressing down her sex, and a glorious
determination to expose and remove them. Read her work. She will
win a willing way to the heart and home of woman, and her mission
will be found to be one of beneficence and love. Truly, woman has
her work and her reward." American Spectator.
"We thank Miss McIntosh for her 'Woman in America.' She has written
a clever book, containing much good 'word and truth,' many valuable
thoughts and reflections, which ought to be carefully considered by
every American lady." Protestant Churchman.
III.

One Volume, 12mo., cloth, $1; or in Two Parts, paper, 75c.
"This is one of those healthful, truthful works of fiction, which
improve the heart and enlighten the judgment, whilst they furnish
amusement to the passing hour. The style is clear, easy and simple,
and the construction of the story artistic in a high degree. We
commend most cordially the book." Tribune.
IV.
TWO LIVES; OR, TO SEEM AND TO BE.
BY MARIA J. McINTOSH.
One Volume, 12mo., paper covers, 50c.; cloth, 75c.
"The previous works of Miss McIntosh, although issued anonymously,
have been popular in the best sense of the word. The simple beauty
of her narratives, combining pure sentiment with high principle,
and noble views of life and its duties, ought to win for them a
hearing at every fireside in our land. We have rarely perused a
tale more interesting and instructive than the one before us, and
we commend it most cordially to the attention of all our
readers." Protestant Churchman.
