THE PERILS OF MAJESTY.

By H. STICKHAM WEED.

In MALLABY-DEELEY cloth, with luminous portraits.

“It is so rich in plums that I do not recommend anyone to read more than half-a-column at a time.  In this way the pleasure and profit can be spread over several weeks.  This wonderful book is the product of a brilliant thinker and tender-hearted gentleman.  My shelves are full, but I should take down any war-book to make room for this.”—­Lord Thanet (third review in “The Douglas Daily Dispatch.")

A Novel of Super-Pathos.

THE QUEEN’S REST CURE.

By “MR. X.”

“The Queen’s Rest-Cure is a greater book than The Rescue by JOSEPH CONRAD, because the sinister thrill of suspense yields to the ever- fresh romance of young love.  I have read and re-read it with tears of pure delight, punctuated with shrieks of happy laughter.”—­Lord Thanet in “The Maryland Mirror."
