By LAURENCE ALMA TADEMA.
18mo. Buckram, gilt top. $1.25.
"It is a study of the inner workings of the human heart, and if the motives of a soul were ever laid bare, it has been done in 'The Wings of Icarus.'... A eood story, told in an intensely natural and interesting manner."—Providence News.
"In 'The Wings of Icarus,' Laurence Alma Tadema has given us a book which, for its literary excellence and for its exquisite pen-coloring and finish in every detail, is as artistic a piece of work as ever her distinguished father has produced with his brush."—Boston Home Journal.
"It is a story of Italian coloring, delicately suggestive, artistic rather than strong, dreamy rather than aggressive."—Chicago Evening Post.
MAD SIR UCHTRED OF THE HILLS.
S. R. CROCKETT,
Author of "The Raiders," "The Stickit Minister," etc., etc.
16mo. Buckram. $1.25.
"Mr. Crockett is surely the poet-laureate of Galloway. The scene of his latest tale ('Mad Sir Uchtred') is laid among the hills with which we became familiar in 'The Raiders.' It is a brief tale, not a novel, and it can be read through in an hour; indeed, if one begins it, one must read it through, so compelling is the charm of it."—Boston Courier.
THE SILVER CHRIST, AND A LEMON TREE.
By OUIDA,
Author of "Under Two Flags," "Two Little Wooden Shoes," etc., etc.
16mo. Buckram. $1.25.
"Two charming stories by 'Ouida' are included in a dainty little volume ('The Silver Christ': 'A Lemon Tree'). Comparatively few persons—so at least it seems to us—appreciate this writer at her true value. We have not the highest opinion of much of her work; it is meretricious and even vulgar. But at her best she is capable of truly exquisite writing, and it is in shorter tales, dealing with an episode,—brief studies of character,—that she is at her best"—Boston Courier.
