ay add, for its pathos."--_London Spectator._
"Much skill is shown by the author in making these 'fads' the basis of
a novel of great interest.... One who tries to keep in the current of
good novel-reading must certainly find time to read 'The Faith
Doctor.'"--_Buffalo Commercial._
An excellent piece of work.... With each new novel the author of 'The
Hoosier Schoolmaster' enlarges his audience and surprises old friends
by reserve forces unsuspected. Sterling integrity of character and high
moral motives illuminate Dr. Eggleston's fiction, and assure its place
in the literature of America which is to stand as a worthy reflex of
the best thoughts of this age."--_New York World._
"It is extremely fortunate that the fine subject indicated in the title
should have fallen into such competent hands."--_Pittsburg
Chronicle-Telegraph._
"This delightful story would alone be sufficient to place Dr. Eggleston
in the front rank of American writers of fiction."--_Chicago Tribune._
"The subject is treated with perfect fidelity and artistic
truthfulness."--_The Critic._
_"LA BELLA" AND OTHERS._ By EGERTON CASTLE, author of "Consequences."
Paper, 50 cents; cloth, $1.00.
"The stories will be welcomed with a sense of refreshing pungency by
readers who have been cloyed by a too long succession of insipid
sweetness and familiar incident."--_London Athenaeum._
"The author is gifted with a lively fancy, and the clever plots he has
devised gain greatly in interest, thanks to the unfamiliar surroundings
in which the action for the most part takes place."--_London Literary
World._
"Eight stories, all exhibiting notable originality in conception and
mastery of art, the first two illustrating them best. They add a
dramatic power that makes them masterpieces. Both belong to the period
when fencing was most skillful, and illustrate its practice."--_Boston
Globe._
_ELINE VERE._ By LOUIS COUPERUS. Translated from the Dutch by J. T.
GREIN. With an Introduction by EDMUND GOSSE. Holland Fiction Series.
12mo. Cloth, $1.00.
"Most careful in its details of description, most picturesque in its
coloring."--_Boston Post._
"A vivacious and skillful performance, giving an evidently
faithful picture of society, and evincing the art of a true
story-teller."--_Philadelphia Telegraph._
"The _denoument_ is tragical, thrilling, and picturesque."--_New York
World._
