George A. Hibbard.
THE GOVERNOR, and Other Stories. (12mo, cloth, $1.00; paper, 50 cents.)
Six of the best of Mr. Hibbard's magazine stories are included in this volume. Mr. Howells, in Harper's, refers to Mr. Hibbard's work as having a "certain felicity of execution and a certain ideal of performance which are not common. The wish to deal with poetic material in the region of physical conjecture is curiously blended with the desire of portraying the life of the society world."
E. T. W. Hoffmann.
WEIRD TALES. With Portrait. (12mo, 2 vols., $3.00.)
"All those who are in search of a genuine literary sensation, or who care for the marvelous and supernatural, will find these two volumes fascinating reading."—The Christian Union.

"Dr. Holland will always find a congenial audience in the homes of culture and refinement. He does not affect the play of the darker and fiercer passions, but delights in the sweet images that cluster around the domestic hearth. He cherishes a strong fellow-feeling with the pure and tranquil life in the modest social circles of the American people, and has thus won his way to the companionship of many friendly hearts."—The New York Tribune.
Thomas A. Janvier.
COLOR STUDIES, AND A MEXICAN CAMPAIGN. (12mo, paper, 50 cts.; cloth, $1.00.)
"Piquant, novel, and ingenious, these little stories, with all their simplicity, have excited a wide interest. The best of them, 'Jaune D'Antimoine,' is a little wonder in its dramatic effect, its ingenious construction."—The Critic.
Virginia W. Johnson.
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 are quite up to her best work."—The Boston Commonwealth.
