  A START IN LIFE]

  _A Start in Life_: A STORY OF THE GENESEE COUNTRY.

  In this story the author recounts the hardships of a young lad in his first endeavor to start out for himself. It is a tale that is full of enthusiasm and budding hopes.

  _Biding His Time._

  "It is full of spirit and adventure, and presents a plucky hero who was willing to 'bide his time,' no matter how great the expectations that he indulged in from his uncle's vast wealth, which he did not in the least covet."--_Boston Home Journal._

  _The Kelp-Gatherers_: A STORY OF THE MAINE COAST.

  A bright and readable story, with all the hints of character and the vicissitudes of human life, in depicting which the author is an acknowledged master.

  _The Scarlet Tanager_, AND OTHER BIPEDS.

  Every new story which Mr. Trowbridge begins is followed through successive chapters by thousands who have read and re-read many times his preceding tales. One of his greatest charms is his absolute truthfulness. He does not depict little saints, or incorrigible rascals, but just _boys_.

  _The Lottery Ticket._

  "This is one of the many popular stories written by this well-known author, whose name on the title-page of a book makes it a welcome arrival to most of the young people who read. The moral is always good, the influence in the right direction, and the characters so portrayed that the right is always rewarded and the wrong fails to prosper."--_Dubuque, Iowa, Herald._

  _The Adventures of David Vane and David Crane._

  A strong, homely, humorous story of the everyday life of American country-bred boys, by one who is acknowledged to be the best living storyteller in his peculiar vein.
