"In his new story, 'Torn Sails,' Mr. Allen Raine fully maintains and strengthens the position as a novelist which his 'Welsh Singer' indicated for him. It is a tender and beautiful romance of the idyllic; a charming picture of life in a Welsh seaside village. It is something of a prose poem, true, tender, and graceful. It is also a charming picture of an interesting and by no means familiar scene of life and manners, in which the humorous traits, though, are rich enough to enliven and brighten the whole."--=Scotsman.= "The expectations aroused by 'A Welsh Singer' have not been disappointed by Mr. Raine's latest work, which is surpassingly beautiful. The absorbing interest of the whole story is the strongest tribute to the author's power of characterisation."--=N.B. Daily Mail.= "Lovely pictures are given here and there in the book. No recent novel has a more graceful influence and promised greater things for its author's future. Wales should be proud of her new novelist."--=Dundee Advertiser.= Third Edition. A WELSH SINGER. By ALLEN RAINE. _In cloth gilt_, =6s.= "Truly idyllic; well conceived, true to life, and worked out in a dainty spirit. Allen Raine has produced a very charming and delicate story."--=Athenæum.= "Wales has waited long for her novelist; but he seems to have come at last in the person of Mr. Allen Raine, who, in his perfectly beautiful story, 'A Welsh Singer,' has at once proved himself a worthy interpreter and exponent of the romantic spirit of his country."--=Daily Mail.= "If you are in the mood for a novel, I can recommend to you strongly a really charming pastoral, 'A Welsh Singer.'"--=Truth.= London: HUTCHINSON & CO., Paternoster Row.

A BRIDE OF JAPAN. By CARLTON DAWE. _In cloth gilt_, =6s.= FIRST REVIEW. "Very powerfully worked by Mr. Dawe; and he tells an affecting, deeply interesting, admirable story.

By LIVINGSTONE PRESCOTT. _In cloth gilt_, =6s.= "'Dearer than Honour' is in many ways an impressive story, and gives evidence of careful and skilful workmanship on every page. It has more real thought in it than goes to the making of half-a-dozen average novels of to-day."--=Pall Mall Gazette.= A NEW NOVEL BY A NEW WRITER. A BACHELOR GIRL IN LONDON. By G. E. MITTON. _In crown 8vo, cloth gilt_, =6s.= "The title of this story indicates its nature. In a most interesting narrative the trials and struggles of a young woman are depicted with all the vividness and reality which appertain to a description of personal experience.
