With portrait and notice of the author.

“A highly clever performance, with little touches that recall both Balzac and Meredith.  Mr. Hope, being disinclined to follow any of the beaten tracks of romance writing, is endowed with exceeding originality.”—­New York Times.

“The tragic undercurrent but increases the charm of the pervading wit and humor of the tale, which embodies a study of character as skillful and true as anything we have lately had, but at the same time so simple and unpretentious as to be very welcome indeed amid the flood of inartistic analysis which we are compelled to accept in so many recent novels.”—­Philadelphia Times.

SECOND EDITION OF

QUAKER IDYLS.

By Mrs. S.M.H.  GARDNER.

Narrow 16mo, buckram. 75 cents.

“Fiction, if this be altogether fiction, can hardly be better employed than when it makes such sweet, simple earnestness real to us.”—­Public Opinion.

“Her accounts of these (an anti-slavery fair and the trial of a fugitive slave) seem to be descriptions of actual happenings, and she describes men and incidents vividly, but with no straining after effect....  A book to be welcomed.”—­New York Times.

“No greater contrast could be imagined than that of these quiet but deep tales and the shallow passions of much contemporary fiction.”—­Literary World.
