THE MOODS PUBLISHING COMPANY 18-20 East 42nd Street, New York City Protect Your Daughter from the evil influence of so-called "light" reading The "dime novels" of other days are no longer to be feared, but the society novel and the problem novel, now so popular in our public libraries, are working far greater havoc in the minds and imaginations of the girls who read them. And nearly all do. The evil influence of these modern themes should be a subject for long and serious reflection for all conscientious fathers and mothers. The best way of combating the evil is to offer the young girl a carefully compiled selection of literature suitable for her immature tastes and tendencies — something so intensely vital in subject matter and absorbingly interesting: in style, that she instinctively prefers it to the suggestive writings of the authors of the day. With this method in view we have had prepared at great expense a set of ten handy volumes called Every Girl's Library which includes only the choicest selections from the world's best authors — fiction, mythology, folklore, poetry, essays, important historical happenings, lives of the mothers of great men, as well as the lives of the world's greatest women. Every selection is wholesome and fascinating:, while all of them together are so varied in subject and broad in scope that they form the basis of a most liberal education. These names on the title page are a guarantee of the inestimable value of this work: Margaret E. Songster Ella Wheeler Wilcox Percy Keese Fitzhugh Stella George Stern Perry These ten beautiful volumes contain over 3500 pages, and are printed from a new cast of 10-point type, large, clear, and on pure white antique paper, specially made for the edition. The pages are wide, with liberal margins, and illustrated by specially made line-cut frontispieces. Bound in de luxe art cloth, backs and sides stamped with ornamental designs, size 4% x ll/2 inches.
