SETH'S BROTHER'S WIFE. (12mo, $1.25.)
"A novel that stands out in clear relief against the fiction of the time. It is made of tangible stuff, is serious without being heavy, brisk and interesting without being flippant; takes hold of real life with an easy yet firm and confident grasp that denotes judicial habits of thought as well as a comfortable mastery of the literary medium."—The Brooklyn Times.
FACE TO FACE. (12mo, paper, 50 cents; cloth, $1.25.)
"This is a well-told story, the interest of which turns upon a game of cross purposes between an accomplished English girl, posing as a free and easy American Daisy Miller, and an American gentleman, somewhat given to aping the manners of the English."—The Buffalo Express.
PHILIP NOLAN'S FRIENDS. Illustrated (12mo, $1.75).
"There is no question, we think, that this is Mr. Hale's completest and best novel. The characters are for the most part well drawn, and several of them are admirable."—The Atlantic Monthly.
JUDITH: A Chronicle of Old Virginia. (12mo, paper, 50 cts.; cloth, $1.00)—HANDICAPPED (12mo, $1.50).

FREE JOE, and Other Georgian Sketches. (12mo, $1.00.)
"The author's skill as a story writer has never been more felicitously illustrated than in this volume.

Augustus Allen Hayes.
THE JESUIT'S RING. A Romance of Mount Desert (12mo, paper, 50 cts.; cloth, $1.00).
