o pay a tribute to the sincerity, intimate knowledge and

_The Novel of the Century._

_THE PERILS OF MAJESTY._

By H. STICKHAM WEED.

In MALLABY-DEELEY cloth, with luminous portraits.

"It is so rich in plums that I do not recommend anyone to read more
than half-a-column at a time. In this way the pleasure and profit can
be spread over several weeks. This wonderful book is the product of a
brilliant thinker and tender-hearted gentleman. My shelves are full,
but I should take down any war-book to make room for this."--_Lord
Thanet (third review in "The Douglas Daily Dispatch.")_

_A Novel of Super-Pathos._

_THE QUEEN'S REST CURE._

By "MR. X."

"_The Queen's Rest-Cure_ is a greater book than _The Rescue_ by JOSEPH
CONRAD, because the sinister thrill of suspense yields to the ever-
fresh romance of young love. I have read and re-read it with tears of
pure delight, punctuated with shrieks of happy laughter."--_Lord Thanet
in "The Maryland Mirror."_
