"Though we are not so young as we once were, we relished these
stories almost as much as the boys and girls for whom they were
written. They were really refreshing even to us. There is much in
them which is calculated to inspire a generous, healthy ambition,
and to make distasteful all reading tending to stimulate base
desires."--_Fitchburg Reveille_.

"Mr. ADAMS, the celebrated and popular writer, familiarly known as
OLIVER OPTIC, seems to have inexhaustible funds for weaving together
the virtues of life; and, notwithstanding he has written scores of
books, the same freshness and novelty run through them all. Some
people think the sensational element predominates.
