Her Majesty the King
A ROMANCE OF THE HAREM BY
JAMES JEFFREY ROCHE
With 16 full page pictures, and an elaborate cover design in many colors. 12mo. $1.25.
As Mr. Roche modestly says in his Forewarning, “This volume, containing the surprising adventures of the good Kayenna and the marvellous wisdom of Shacabac, the wayfarer, needeth no apology. Its merits are as many as its words.”
And the reviewers have heartily agreed that “there are several laughs on every page.”
Published over two years ago, Her Majesty the King is more popular to-day than at any time since its publication. It is plainly not only a book to read but to recommend to your friends.
“The wittiest book of the year.”—Boston Journal.

A BOOK OF BALLADS BY
REV. JAMES B. DOLLARD
(Sliav-na-mon)
With an introduction by William O’Brien, M. P.
Small quarto. $1.50
This is a book of ringing Irish ballads that will stir the heart of every lover of true poetry. “Here and there a verse may be as frankly unadorned as the peasant cabins themselves in their homely cloaks of thatch, but every line rings true to life and home and with the tone, as heartmoving as the Angelus which holds Millet’s peasants in its spell,” from Mr. O’Brien’s introduction.
“Father Dollard’s ballads have all the fire and dash of Kipling’s, with a firmer poetic grasp,” says Mr. Nathan Haskell Dole.
