Notes:

The text for this electronic version of the book was taken from an original printed form, revised for XHTML/CSS and to follow our own formatting preferences. Pagination of the original edition has been included.

There selections included in this collection were initially issued as two separate pamphlets, the first in 1897 and the second in 1898, as part of their Riverside Literature Series. After the second pamphlet was issued, they were brought together in a single hard-bound volume. The present table of contents is a reasonable reproduction of the one from that combined edition.

On the back of the title page, the copyright line reads: “Copyright, 1897 and 1898, by Houghton, Mifflin & Co.”
