which was to be erected at Jerusalem. During his absence of
several years, he met with innumerable strange and perilous adventures
by land and sea. In itself the narrative of his exploits is of thrilling
interest, but the real value of the book consists in the graphic and
accurate picture which it gives of the world as it was a thousand years
before the Christian Era. King David, King Solomon, the Queen of Sheba,
and even Homer are among the characters Captain Mago meets in his
journeys and adventures.

=A TALE OF THE INDIAN MUTINY;=

_OR, THE SERPENT-CHARMER._

BY LOUIS ROUSSELET.

_New Edition, Fully Illustrated. One Volume, 12mo, $1.50_

A book of exciting adventures, the scene being laid in India during the
Mutiny of 1857, and the story describing the fortunes of a Franco-Indian
family.

"The book, the plot of which appears to be founded on fact, is rather a
boy's book than a novel, and is filled with an uninterrupted series of
wild adventures, told in an agreeable and interesting way."
--_The Nation._

"Besides the interest in the romance, much information is conveyed
concerning Indian manners and customs, as well as delightful
descriptions of the wild country and the animals that abound there."
--_Providence Journal._

[Illustration]

The author of this book is famous for his hunting exploits in Africa and
in Asia. His narrative has an autobiographical basis and contains some
of the most marvelous stories of adventure ever published. Col. Gordon's
accounts of his various expeditions are records of bravery and endurance
seldom paralleled; and the tales of bloodshed are alleviated by pleasant
anecdote--the humors of the camp and chase.
