  The Unlucky Family

  New Edition with Coloured Illustrations by C. E. BROCK.

  This is one of the most humorous children's books published in recentyears, and the many awkward dilemmas and diverting experiences whichensue upon the Chubb family's unexpected rise in the social scale cannotfail to delight young readers as well as their elders. In the matter ofshowing the propensity for getting into mischief these youngstersestablish a record, but their escapades are generally of a harmlesscharacter and lead to nothing very serious.

  "It is a clever and amusing tale, full of high spirits and good-naturedmischief which children not too seriously inclined willenjoy."--_Scotsman_.
