."--_Boston Herald._ "'Beverly' is altogether charming--almost living flesh and blood."--_Louisville Times._ "Better than 'Graustark'."--_Mail and Express._ "A sequel quite as impossible as 'Graustark' and quite as entertaining."--Bookman. "A charming love story well told."--_Boston Transcript._ HALF A ROGUE. By Harold MacGrath. With illustrations and inlay cover picture by Harrison Fisher. "Here are dexterity of plot, glancing play at witty talk, characters really human and humanly real, spirit and gladness, freshness and quick movement. 'Half a Rogue' is as brisk as a horseback ride on a glorious morning. It is as varied as an April day. It is as charming as two most charming girls can make it. Love and honor and success and all the great things worth fighting for and living for the involved in 'Half a Rogue.'"--_Phila. Press._ THE GIRL FROM TIM'S PLACE. By Charles Clark Munn. With illustrations by Frank T. Merrill. "Figuring in the pages of this story there are several strong characters. Typical New England folk and an especially sturdy one, old Cy Walker, through whose instrumentality Chip comes to happiness and fortune. There is a chain of comedy, tragedy, pathos and love, which makes a dramatic story."--_Boston Herald._ THE LION AND THE MOUSE. A story of American Life. By Charles Klein, and Arthur Hornblow. With illustrations by Stuart Travis, and Scenes from the Play. The novel duplicated the success of the play; in fact the book is greater than the play. A portentous clash of dominant personalities that form the essence of the play are necessarily touched upon but briefly in the short space of four acts. All this is narrated in the novel with a wealth of fascinating and absorbing detail, making it one of the most powerfully written and exciting works of fiction given to the world in years. BARBARA WINSLOW, REBEL. By Elizabeth Ellis. With illustrations by John Rae, and colored inlay cover. The following, taken from story, will best describe the heroine: A TOAST: "To the bravest comrade in misfortune, the sweetest companion in peace and at all times the most courageous of women."--_Barbara Winslow._ "A romantic story, buoyant, eventful, and in matters of love exactly what the heart could desire."--_New York Sun._ SUSAN. By Ernest Oldmeadow. With a color frontispiece by Frank Haviland.
