BY EDWARD BELLAMY. 12mo. Cloth, $1.25. After years of preparation Mr. Bellamy now puts forward a work which will command universal attention. The new book is larger and more comprehensive than "Looking Backward." The scene is the same--that is to say, the world of the twentieth century--and the same characters reappear. But while the new book tells us much that is fresh about the institutions of the world of to-morrow, its especial purpose, as distinguished from that of "Looking Backward," is to account for these institutions by explaining not only a righteousness and reason, but like-wise the course of historical evolution by which they were born out of the very different order of things existing to-day. In this part of his work the author has much to say of the meaning of the events of our own times, which he links with the future by predictions of changes now close upon us. The title, "Equality," is well chosen, in view of the general theme. Publication will be simultaneous in the United States, Great Britain, France, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Spain, Italy, and other countries. It is of interest to recall that over 400,000 copies of "Looking Backward" have been sold in this country. The book has been translated into the language of every civilized country, and its total sale is almost beyond computation. Quite recently the demand for literature dealing with sociological questions has led to the printing of a quarter of a million copies at a low price in England. * * * * * D.

A Romance of the Empire._ Illustrated. This brilliant historical romance pictures Napoleon's threatened invasion of England when his forces were encamped at Boulogne.

"A remarkable book, worthy of the pen that gave us 'The White Company,' 'Micah Clarke,' and other notable romances."--_London Daily News._ "A notable and very brilliant work of genius."--_London Speaker._ "'Rodney Stone' is, in our judgment, distinctly the best of Dr. Conan Doyle's novels.... There are few descriptions in fiction that can vie with that race upon the Brighton road."--_London Times._ _THE EXPLOITS OF BRIGADIER GERARD. A Romance of the Life of a Typical Napoleonic Soldier._ Illustrated. "The brigadier is brave, resolute, amorous, loyal, chivalrous; never was a foe more ardent in battle, more clement in victory, or more ready at need.... Gallantry, humor, martial gayety, moving incident, make up a really delightful book."--_London Times._ "May be set down without reservation as the most thoroughly enjoyable book that Dr. Doyle has ever published."--_Boston Beacon._
