THE STATEROOM OPPOSITE.
By ARTHUR HENRY VEYSEY. Author of “A Cheque for Three Thousand,” etc.
Is a well balanced detective story. It is not overdrawn as such
books usually are, but full of mysterious and vital interest. It is
a departure from Mr. Veysey’s previous humorous style in “A Cheque
for Three Thousand,” and “A Pedigree in Pawn,” proving him to be a
remarkably versatile writer. Most of the events take place on
shipboard. It is a powerful story, with a most dramatic climax, and
inimitably original characters.

THE DRONES MUST DIE.
By MAX NORDAU. _Sixth Edition._ “As purely original as if no other
novel had ever been written. The open secret of such writing is that
it is the result of the experience and the observation of one of the
keenest observers—a man who exaggerates nothing and sets down naught
in malice, but sees with incomparable clearness, and writes down
what he sees.”—_The Bookseller and Newsman._
