THE FAINALLS OF TIPTON. (12mo, $1.25.)
“The plot is good, and in its working-out original. Character drawing is Miss Johnson’s recognized forte, and her pen-sketches of the inventor, the checker-playing clergyman and druggist, the rising young doctor, the sentimental painter, the rival grocers, etc., are quite up to her best work.”—The Boston Commonwealth.
Lieut. J. D. J. Kelley.
A DESPERATE CHANCE. (12mo, paper, 50 cts.; cloth, $1.00.)
“This novel is of the good old-fashioned, exciting kind. Though it is a sea story, all the action is not on board ship. There is a well-developed mystery, and while it is in no sense sensational, readers may be assured that they will not be tired out by analytical descriptions, nor will they find a dull page from first to last.”—The Brooklyn Union.
The King’s Men:
A TALE OF TO-MORROW. By Robert Grant. John Boyle O’Reilly. J. S., of Dale, and John T. Wheelwright. (12mo, $1.25.)
Andrew Lang.
THE MARK OF CAIN. (12mo, paper, 25 cts.; cloth, 75 cts.)
“No one can deny that it is crammed as full of incident as it will hold, or that the elaborate plot is worked out with most ingenious perspicuity.”—The Saturday Review.
