AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.
By MADELEINE LUCETTE RYLEY. The fact that the play of “An American
Citizen” has had the most successful run of any modern drama should
guarantee a wide sale of this book. The talented and successful
writer has displayed a wonderful skill in developing the plot, all
the outlines of the play are artistically rounded into a complete
novel, which the reader will find intensely interesting from the
first line to the end. Cloth bound.

THE RAINBOW FEATHER.
By FERGUS HUME. Author of “The Mystery of a Hansom Cab,” “Claude Duval
of Ninety-five,” etc., etc. Published simultaneously with the London
edition. This is a wonderfully clever story, intensely interesting,
the mystery is kept up to the end, and when the reader lays down the
book it is with the satisfaction of having been fully entertained by
a remarkably fascinating tale. Cloth bound.

HOUSES OF GLASS.
By WALLACE LLOYD, M.D. It is more important than most books, and
deserves special attention for several reasons. From a purely
literary standpoint it has claims, being exceedingly well-written,
and most profoundly felt. Besides being founded upon philosophy, the
story is firm, clear-cut, and so interesting as to lift the book far
above the level of ordinary romances. Cloth bound.

BEVERLY OSGOOD; or, When the Great City is Awake.
By JANE VALENTINE. This romance sets forth New York life as seen by a
student of city conditions of both rich and poor. In Nina Palermo,
the heroine, is a convincing illustration of the fearful effect of
evil circumstances on the life of an innocent and beautiful but poor
girl. The wide influence of truly good and Christian women toward
uplifting the fallen and quietly aiding reform, is also portrayed in
the character of “My Lady.” It is a work which should do much good.
Cloth bound.
