Olivia in India.

by O. Douglas.

”_When one discovers a happy look it is one's duty to tell one's friends about it_.”

JAMES DOUGLAS in _The Star_.

OLIVIA IN INDIA. By O. DOUGLAS

”Happy books are not very plentiful, and when one discovers a happy book it is one's duty to tell one's friends about it, so that it makes them happy too. My happy book is called 'Olivia.' It is by a certain young woman who calls herself O. Douglas, though I suspect that it's a pen-name.... Olivia can write the most fascinating letters you ever read.”--JAMES DOUGLAS in the _Star_. ”Extremely interesting. To have read this book is to have met an extremely likeable personality in the author.”--_Glasgow Herald_.

PENNY PLAIN. By O. DOUGLAS

”Penny Plain” is a story of life in a little town on the banks of the Tweed. Jean Jardine, the heroine--who looks after her brothers in their queer old house, ”The Rigs,” and is in turn looked after by the old servant, Mrs. McCosh (from Glasgow), and Peter, the fox-terrier--describes herself and her life as ”penny plain,” but with the coming of Pamela Reston and her brother (who was what Mrs. McCosh called ”a Lord--no less”), everything is changed. There is love in the book and laughter. ”A very able and delightful book.”--_The Times_.

”A delicious novel ... a triumphant success.”--”A MAN OF KENT” in the _British Weekly_.

THE SETONS. By O. DOUGLAS

”Portrayed with the humour and insight of a deep affection.”--_The Times_. ”Elizabeth is a delightful creature who radiates the pages.”--_Glasgow Herald_. ”To the reading public at large it will prove a sheer delight.”--_Glasgow Times_. ”Full of charm.”--_Spectator_. ”A delightful romance.”--_Aberdeen Journal_.
