Kaloolah. The Adventures of Jonathan Romer. By W. S. Mayo. The "Framazugda" edition. Rese., and very fully illustrated by Alfred Fredericks, and handsomely printed in quarto, cloth extra $2 50 "STIR ONE STEP," I EXCLAIMED, "AND YOU DIE."
(Reduced from "Kaloolah.")

Of this celebrated work more than 25,000 copies have been sold in this country, exclusive of a number of unauthorized English editions, and it is justly entitled to enduring popularity. A new edition was demanded, and the present generation of readers may be congratulated on the circumstances that have led to the republication of one of the most curious, ingenious, and fascinating romances ever produced, Mr. Fredericks' illustrations are full of the spirit of the story and excellent in design.

The author's style is easy, flowing, and delightfully entertaining. He tells his story with a certain humorousness that imparts a charm to all his writings.

"One of the most admirable pictures ever produced in this country."— Washington Irving.

"The most singular and captivating romance since 'Robinson Crusoe.'" Home Journal.
