WILLIAM DE MORGAN'S NOVELS

"WHY ALL THIS POPULARITY?" asks E. V. LUCAS, writing in the _Outlook_ of
De Morgan's Novels. He answers: De Morgan is "almost the perfect example
of the humorist; certainly the completest since Lamb.... Humor, however,
is not all.... In the De Morgan world it is hard to find an unattractive
figure.... The charm of the young women, all brave and humorous and gay,
and all trailing clouds of glory from the fairyland from which they have
just come."

=JOSEPH VANCE=

The story of a great sacrifice and a life-long love.

"The book of the last decade; the best thing in fiction since Mr.
Meredith and Mr. Hardy; must take its place as the first great
English novel that has appeared in the twentieth century."--LEWIS
MELVILLE in _New York Times Saturday Review_.

=ALICE-FOR-SHORT=

The romance of an unsuccessful man, in which the long buried past
reappears in London of to-day.

"If any writer of the present era is read a half century hence, a
quarter century, or even a decade, that writer is William De
Morgan."--_Boston Transcript_.

=SOMEHOW GOOD=

How two brave women won their way to happiness.

"A book as sound, as sweet, as wholesome, as wise, as any in the
range of fiction."--_The Nation_.

=IT NEVER CAN HAPPEN AGAIN=

A story of the great love of Blind Jim and his little daughter, and of
the affairs of a successful novelist.

"De Morgan at his very best, and how much better his best is than
the work of any novelist of the past thirty years."--_The
Independent_.

=AN AFFAIR OF DISHONOR=

A very dramatic novel of Restoration days.

"A marvelous example of Mr. De Morgan's inexhaustible fecundity of
invention.... Shines as a romance quite as much as 'Joseph Vance'
does among realistic novels."--_Chicago Record-Herald_.

=A LIKELY STORY=

"Begins comfortably enough with a little domestic quarrel in a
studio.... The story shifts suddenly, however, to a brilliantly told
tragedy of the Italian Renaissance embodied in a girl's portrait....
The many readers who like Mr. De Morgan will enjoy this charming
fancy greatly."--_New York Sun_.

_A Likely Story, $1.35 net; the others, $1.75 each._

=WHEN GHOST MEETS GHOST=

The most "De Morganish" of all his stories. The scene is England in the
fifties. _820 pages_. _$1.50 net_.
