THE ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN KETTLE.

The best sea story since the days of Marryat. Captain Kettle is a
devil-may-care sea dog, half pirate and half preacher. The author
carries him through many hairbreadth escapes and makes him a character
that will live long in the annals of fiction. The success of this book
is marvelous.
THE MULLIGANS. A Novel.
By EDWARD HARRIGAN.
The _New York World_ says: "Mr. Harrigan gave to his Mulligan dramas the
most distinctly typical character plays which have ever been seen on the
native stage. They were studied and displayed straight from the life of
New York and their popularity was unbounded. His book is one of the most
generally interesting of the new season's output."
_It is a marvelously entertaining novel, possessing a keenness of wit
and humor unsurpassed by any recent work. All the characters stand out,
as true to life, as natural and as vivid as if portrayed by Dickens._
