The Shadow of a Crime.
By HALL CAINE.
Bound uniform with the above. Price, 25 Cents.
"The central incident of this novel is that most extraordinary of all punishments known to English criminal law, the peine forte et dure. The story is not, however, in any sense historical. A sketchy background of stirring history is introduced solely in order to heighten the personal danger of a brave man. The interest is domestic, and, perhaps, in some degree psychological. Around a pathetic piece of old jurisprudence I have gathered a mass of Cumbrian folk-lore and folk-talk with which I have been familiar from earliest youth."—Hall Caine.
Besides the foregoing, the publishers beg to announce that they have now ready two late works by the same author, in all probability the most remarkable that he has thus far given to the world.

[BERTHA M. CLAY.]
The successor to this world-famous novelist has not yet appeared; and from the present outlook it will be long ere a worthy rival of the author of Dora Thorne will be discovered on the literary horizon. Her pen-pictures of the cream of the British nobility have never been equalled; her ability to weave a plot, full of tenderness, mystery and passion, remains unrivalled. It is a positive relief to recur to these old friends—healthy, warm-hearted women, handsome, aristocratic men, who lived, loved and won or lost, according to their fate, after the deluge of nauseabond, neurotic modern fiction that has been inundating our reading tables for the past two or three years.
