The Pace That Kills Part 14

What Dreams May Come. By Mrs. Gertrude Atherton.

"The interest of the story lies in its all-absorbing plot, its strong dramatic treatment, and the bold handling of one of the most difficult and least used subjects of literature."--_Rochester Herald._

"There is good work and strong work in the book, and it is quite enough to make one hope it is not the last the auth.o.r.ess will write."--_N. Y. Journalist._

Bella-Demonia. By SELINA DOLARO. Madame Dolaro's Posthumous Novel.

This work, founded on a drama by Madame Dolaro, shortly to be produced, is an historical novel of pure incident. It is composed of a series of startling dramatic situations, founded on facts not hitherto published in connection with the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-8, of which it is an accurate history of absorbing interest.

Mes Amours: Poems. Pa.s.sionate and Playful. By SELINA DOLARO.

"Some of them are from her own pen; she is the inspiration of the others. A few of the latter are really quite clever verses, but not nearly as bright as her annotation of them all."--_N.

Y. Graphic._

"There is many a laugh to be had from reading the book."--_Town Topics._

"These verses are full of spirit and life, and the merry mood sings between the lines like the contented streamlet between wind-swept hillsides."--_Albany Journal._

That Girl from Texas. By JEANETTE H. WALWORTH.

"Is one of the nicest girls ever introduced to readers. Well told, and decidedly interesting."--_New London Telegraph._

A Splendid Egotist. By JEANNETTE H. WALWORTH (author of "That Girl from Texas").

A brilliant society novel by this gifted author, and one of the best she has written.

History of New York. By JEANNETTE H. WALWORTH. In words of one syllable.

Richly ill.u.s.trated. Illuminated board cover.

"This book is well calculated to give young children just about the historical knowledge in that direction which their minds are prepared to absorb and retain."--_Oswego Palladium._

His Way and Her Will. By FANNIE ATMAR MATHEWS.

"Is a novel of more than usual merit. Its characters are strong in word and action, and although it is a love story, its sentiment is manly, and not mawkish."--_N. H. News._

"The characters are drawn with a firm and free hand, and the story has that symmetry of construction which shows the practical workman. The literary style is finished and graceful."--_Baltimore News._

Studies in Social Life. A Review of the Principles, Practices, and Problems of Society. By GEORGE C. LORIMER.

"The subject is a living one, he has gone to the heart of it, developed his thoughts in an attractive manner, pointed out clearly its existing evils and their causes, and advances theories of remedies which will stand practical test."--_Hamilton Republican._

"It is a serious work, deserving to be widely read. It deals with so many subjects that an epitome of its contents is impossible here; but we would call special attention to the chapter on the vices of society."--_N. Y. World._

Eating and Living. By SIR HENRY THOMPSON.

The Everyday Cook Book. By MISS M. C. NEILL. Oil-cloth cover (kitchen style).

The Kentucky Cookery Book. By MRS. PETER A. WHITE.

Political Oratory of Emery A. Storm, from Lincoln to Garfield. By ISAAC E. ADAMS.

"Not only valuable as examples of perfect argument and matchless eloquence, but as a rich contribution to the political history of our country."--_Burlington Post._

The People and the Railways. By APPLETON MORGAN.

"It is a popular discussion of some railway problems, and it takes the ground that a railway company is a useful public servant, and not necessarily a crus.h.i.+ng monopoly."--_Epoch._

"The book is carefully written, and Mr. Morgan presents his side of the argument with clearness and great ability."--_Chicago Herald._

Men, Women, and G.o.ds. By HELEN GARDENER.

"The writer of this volume has read the Bible with open eyes.

The mist of sentimentality has not clouded her vision. She has had the courage to tell the result of her investigations. She has been quick to discover contradictions. She appreciates the humorous side of the stupidly solemn. She says what she thinks, and feels what she says."--_Robt. H. Ingersoll._

The Veteran and His Pipe. By ALBION W. TOURGEE.

"Judge Tourgee maintains his old familiar force and style, and in 'The Veteran and His Pipe' employs himself in giving to soldiers particularly (although the book will be interesting to all readers) something that they will greatly enjoy."--_St.

Joseph_ (Mo.) _Herald._

Divorced. By MRS. MADELEINE VINTON DAHLGREN.

"This is a masterly discussion of one of the burning questions of the age, dealt with according to the logic of facts. The plot is most ingenious, and the characters are sketched with a powerful hand."--_Trenton Times._
