“Each Opera is adequately and interestingly dealt with. It is the best book of its kind we have seen.”—Sheffield Daily Independent.
A charming series of tales arranged from the Grand Operas. Few people seem to know the actual stories contained in the great music dramas of Wagner and others.
Most of them are very beautiful and interesting, and this volume contains twenty of the more popular tales simply written and in accordance with the libretto.
IN PREPARATION:
| Vol. | III. | “Chats on the Violoncello.” Olga Racster. |
| Vol. | IV. | “Chats with Music Lovers.” Dr. Patterson. |

The Last Miracle.
By M. P. Shiel.
This long-since-promised novel of Mr. M. P. Shiel is the third of the trilogy of novels which commenced with the “Lords of the Sea,” and was continued by the much-translated “Purple Cloud,” all the three purporting to be the words dropped from the lips of a clairvoyant in her swoons, as memorandumed in the note-books of her doctor.
