DEDICATION"If I were to dedicate this book it would be to those girls who resolve that they will not play the poor role of Micawber, their only chance for life being that some one will turn up' whom they may burden with their helpless weight." From the Scotsman.

"Whether we consider the excellence of the story, the high moral tone which pervades it, or the value of the lesson it teaches, Mr. Roe's work is one which deserves to be widely known and studied."

From the Dundee Advertiser.
