MAIDS OF SALEM. By K. L. Montgomery, Author of "The Gate-Openers," "The Cardinal's Pawn," etc.
The witch-persecution of New England, one of the most dramatic chapters of American history, is the theme of K. L. Montgomery's new novel. The scene is Salem, Massachusetts Bay. The story is one of tragedy and romance, told in the inimitable way with which the author's admirers have been so charmed by her previous books.
THE DICE OF LOVE. By Edmund Bosanquet Author of "A Society Mother," "Mary's Marriage," etc.
Since the days of "A Society Mother," Mr. Edmund Bosanquet has gone far, and this, his latest romance, will more than satisfy the expectations of his admirers. The characters are never insipid, and have the happy knack of getting on the right side of the reader immediately. There is a sustained brilliance about the book which augurs well for its success.
THE MEMOIRS OF PRINCESS ARNULF.
These reminiscences form the record of the intimate life of the Princess Arnulf and her royal relatives. Not for many years has a work of such extraordinary interest been given to the reading public. It is the mart of news, of scandal, of rumour, of intrigue, of a galaxy of princes, courtiers, men and women of rank and fashion, of sullied virtue and invidious attachments.
WHY SHE LEFT HIM. By Florence Warden, Author of "Love's Sentinel," etc.
Miss Warden's gypsy heroine forms a very interesting study. It would be unfair to explain the plot of the story, but behind it is tragedy. The hero, Lord Tregaron, is a well-drawn personage, and so, indeed, are the other characters clustered around the charming heroine.
THE MAZE. By A. L. Stewart.
"The Maze" is the love story of a famous operatic singer who marries her protégé, a violinist considerably younger than herself. As is inevitable, their gifts clash and jealousy ensues. The plot is cleverly unfolded, and the book reaches a satisfactory conclusion. The scene is laid in London, Paris, and the West of England.
