THE JEAN INGELOW BIRTHDAY BOOK. With red-line border and divisions, 12
illustrations and portrait.

16mo. Cloth, gilt and illuminated. Price, $1.00
Full calf or morocco, $3.50

"This is a dainty little volume having a selection from Jean
Ingelow for each day of the year. The extracts are of both prose
and verse. There are graceful illustrations for each month suited
in subject to the season. The book will be welcomed by admirers of
this writer and must prove a popular gift-book for the birthday
season."--_Chicago Advance._

"We have seen no more tasteful book this year than 'The Jean
Ingelow Birthday Book,' which Messrs. Roberts Brothers publish. It
is somewhat larger in form than are the birthday books with which
the public is familiar, is printed on very fine paper, and has a
page with the usual quotations and the usual blanks, the whole
encircled with a carmine line border, the date of the days of the
months being printed in the same color. The work is illustrated
with handsome engravings, and has a steel-engraved portrait of Jean
Ingelow. The binding is a real gem. Nothing could well be more
attractive in the way of cloth ornament than is its combination of
design and color."--_Saturday Evening Gazette._

UNDER THE SUN. By Phil. Robinson, the new English Humorist. With a
Preface by Edwin Arnold, author of "The Light of Asia." 16mo. Cloth.
Price, $1.50

This is a volume of essays, humorous and pathetic, of incidents, scenes,
and objects grouped under the heads: Indian Sketches, The Indian
Seasons, Unnatural History, Idle Hours under the Punkah.

"Under the Sun," by Phil. Robinson, is one of the most delightful
of recent books. The style is fascinating in its strength and
picturesqueness, and there is now and then a delicious quaintness
that recalls Charles Lamb. A volume such as this is rare in our
day, when the art of essay writing is almost lost and forgotten.
Freshness, vigor, humor, pathos, graphic power, a keen love for
nature, a gentle love for animals, and a pleasing originality are
among the more charming characteristics of this work, which may be
