The scene of the story centers in London and Italy. The book is skilfully written and makes one of the most baffling, mystifying, exciting detective stories ever written--cleverly keeping the suspense and mystery intact until the surprising discoveries which precede the end. THE HONOUR OF SAVELLI. A Romance. By S. Levett Yeats. With cover and wrapper in four colors. Those who enjoyed Stanley Weyman’s _A Gentleman of France_ will be engrossed and captivated by this delightful romance of Italian history. It is replete with exciting episodes, hair-breath escapes, magnificent sword-play, and deals with the agitating times in Italian history when Alexander II was Pope and the famous and infamous Borgias were tottering to their fall. SISTER CARRIE. By Theodore Drieser. With a frontispiece, and wrapper in color. In all fiction there is probably no more graphic and poignant study of the way in which man loses his grip on life, lets his pride, his courage, his self-respect slip from him, and, finally, even ceases to struggle in the mire that has engulfed him * * * There is more tonic value in _Sister Carrie_ than in a whole shelfful of sermons. THE AFFAIR AT THE INN. By Kate Douglas Wiggin. With illustrations by Martin Justice. “As superlatively clever in the writing as it is entertaining in the reading. It is actual comedy of the most artistic sort, and it is handled with a freshness and originality that is unquestionably novel.”--_Boston Transcript._ “A feast of humor and good cheer, yet subtly pervaded by special shades of feeling, fancy, tenderness, or whimsicality. A merry thing in prose.”--_St. Louis Democrat._ ROSE O’ THE RIVER. By Kate Douglas Wiggin. With illustrations by George Wright. “‘Rose o’ the River,’ a charming bit of sentiment, gracefully written and deftly touched with a gentle humor. It is a dainty book--daintily illustrated.”--_New York Tribune._ “A wholesome, bright, refreshing story, an ideal book to give a young girl.”--_Chicago Record-Herald._ “An idyllic story, replete with pathos and inimitable humor. As story-telling it is perfection, and as portrait-painting it is true to the life.”--_London Mail._ TILLIE: A Mennonite Maid. By Helen R. Martin. With illustrations by Florence Scovel Shinn. The little “Mennonite Maid” who wanders through these pages is something quite new in fiction. Tillie is hungry for books and beauty and love; and she comes into her inheritance at the end. “Tillie is faulty, sensitive, big-hearted, eminently human, and first, last and always lovable. Her charm glows warmly, the story is well handled, the characters skilfully developed.”--_The Book Buyer._ LADY ROSE’S DAUGHTER. By Mrs. Humphry Ward. With illustrations by Howard Chandler Christy.
