"Maarten Maartens stands head and shoulders above the average
novelist of the day in intellectual subtlety and imaginative
power."--_Boston Beacon._

THE WAGE OF CHARACTER.

By JULIEN GORDON, author of "Mrs. Clyde," etc. With Portrait.
12mo. Cloth, $1.25.

Julien Gordon's new novel is a story of the world of fashion and
intrigue, written with an insight, an epigrammatic force, and a
realization of the dramatic and the pathetic as well as more
superficial phases of life, that stamp the book as one immediate
and personal in its interest and convincing in its appeal to the
minds and to the sympathies of readers.

THE QUIBERON TOUCH.

A Romance of the Sea. By CYRUS TOWNSEND BRADY, author of "For
the Freedom of the Sea," "The Grip of Honor," etc. With Frontispiece.
12mo. Cloth, $1.50.

"This story has a real beauty; it breathes of the sea. Fenimore
Cooper would not be ashamed to own a disciple in the school of
which he was master in these descriptions of the tug of war as it
was in the eighteenth century between battle-ships under
sail."--_New York Mail and Express._

SHIPMATES.

A Volume of Salt-Water Fiction. By MORGAN ROBERTSON, author of
"Masters of Men," etc. With Frontispiece. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.

When Mr. Robertson writes of the sea, the tang of the brine and the
snap of the sea-breeze are felt behind his words. The adventures
and mysteries of sea life, the humors and strange complications
possible in yachting, the inner tragedies of the foks'l, the
delightful adventures of Finnegan in war, and the original
developments in the course of true love at sea, are among the vivid
pictures that make up a volume so vital in its interests and
dramatic in its situations, so delightful in its quaint humor and
so vigorous and stirring throughout, that it will be read by sea
lovers for its full flavor of the sea, and by others as a
refreshing tonic.

A NEST OF LINNETS.

By F. FRANKFORT MOORE, author of "The Jessamy Bride," "A Gray
Eye or So," etc. Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.

"That 'A Nest of Linnets' is bright, clever, and well written
follows as a matter of course, considering that it was written by
F. Frankfort Moore."--_Philadelphia Telegraph._

THE ETERNAL CITY.

By HALL CAINE, author of "The Christian," "The Manxman," "The
Bondman," "The Deemster," etc. 12mo. Clot
