A DRONE and A DREAMER

An American Love Story

By NELSON LLOYD, author of "The Chronic Loafer." Illustrated, Cloth, 8vo, $1.50.

A rich fulfillment of the prophecy of Mr. Lloyd's earlier work, brimming ver with genial humor and wholesome fun. An exquisite love story; a harming idyl of life among the mountains and valleys of the Keystone State. "Mr. Lloyd is an excellent workman always. He makes us see the quiet of the hills and allurements of the trout-stream, et refrains as scrupulously as Mr. Howells himself from obtruding his own personality. The subject matter is remarkably esh. Pervading it all is a delightful humor."- The Book Buyer.
