"Dr. Ebers's romances founded on ancient history are hardly equaled by
any other living author.... He makes the men and women and the scenes
move before the reader with living reality."--_Boston Home Journal._
"Georg Ebers writes stories of ancient times with the conscientiousness
of a true investigator. His tales are so carefully told that large
portions of them might be clipped or quoted by editors of guide-books
and authors of histories intended to be popular."--_New York Herald._

D. APPLETON & CO.'S PUBLICATIONS.
_SLEEPING FIRES._ By GEORGE GISSING, author of "In the Year of
Jubilee," "Eve's Ransom," etc. 16mo. Cloth, 75 cents.
In this striking story the author has treated an original motive with
rare self-command and skill. His book is most interesting as a story,
and remarkable as a literary performance.
_STONEPASTURES._ By ELEANOR STUART. 16mo. Cloth, 75 cents.
"This is a strong bit of good literary workmanship.... The book has the
value of being a real sketch of our own mining regions, and of showing
how, even in the apparently dull round of work, there is still material
for a good bit of literature."--_Philadelphia Ledger._
_COURTSHIP BY COMMAND._ By M. M. BLAKE. 16mo. Cloth, 75 cents.
"A bright, moving study of an unusually interesting period in the life
of Napoleon, ... deliciously told; the characters are clearly, strongly,
and very delicately modeled, and the touches of color most artistically
done. 'Courtship by Command' is the most satisfactory Napoleon
_bonne-bouche_ we have had."--_New York Commercial Advertiser._
_THE WATTER'S MOU'._ By BRAM STOKER. 16mo. Cloth, 75 cents.
"Here is a tale to stir the most sluggish nature.... It is like standing
on the deck of a wave-tossed ship; you feel the soul of the storm go
into your blood."--_N. Y. Home Journal._
"The characters are strongly drawn, the descriptions are intensely
dramatic, and the situations are portrayed with rare vividness of
language. It is a thrilling story, told with great power."--_Boston
Advertiser._
_MASTER AND MAN._ By Count LEO TOLSTOY. With an Introduction by
W. D. HOWELLS. 16mo. Cloth, 75 cents.
