By =Fergus Hume=. “Fully as interesting as his former books, and keeps one guessing to the end. The story begins with the murder of an old lady, with no apparent cause for the crime, and in unraveling the mystery the author is very clever in hiding the real criminal. A pleasing romance runs through the book, which adds to the interest.”—_Albany Evening Journal._ 12mo, cloth bound, $1.25. THE SILLY SYCLOPEDIA By =Noah Lott=. “A terrible thing in the form of a literary torpedo which is launched for hilarious purposes only, inaccurate in every particular, containing copious etymological derivations and other useless things. It is one of the cleverest, most scintillating little bunches of foolishness that has appeared in many moons. There is not a dull page in the book.”—_New Orleans Picayune._ Illustrated, 12mo, cloth bound, 75 cents. THE PEARL AND THE PUMPKIN By =Paul West= and =W. W. Denslow=. “Belongs to the same class of books for children with ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and ‘The Wizard of Oz.’ Get the big, handsome book, where Paul West tells all about it, and W. W. Denslow has illustrated the story with a whole book full of the funniest colored pictures that will keep the eyes big and round with surprise and the sides shaking with laughter.”—_Cleveland Plaindealer._ Illustrated, 4to, cloth bound, $1.50.

Embellished, as it is, with the whimsical humor of Mr. Denslow’s inimitable drawings, produced in colors by the most beautiful printing, it will eclipse all other juvenile picture books of the year.
