“But how could he go back to her, where a dozen man-hunters are waiting? They have been here, the loons, to see if he bought a ticket. They will not find him. He will stay where he is until--until it is time to go on the ship. Ah, my friend, it was grand trouble to make him do this. He was for going back to her--to the man-hunters. But I gave him the light of a wise proverb, and he saw: Better an egg to-day than a hen to-morrow.” [Illustration: _The End._] FÉLIX GRAS’S ROMANCES. The White Terror. A Romance. Translated from the Provençal by Mrs. Catharine A. Janvier. Uniform with “The Reds of the Midi” and “The Terror.” 16mo. Cloth, $1.50. “No one has done this kind of work with finer poetic grasp or more convincing truthfulness than Félix Gras.... This new volume has the spontaneity, the vividness, the intensity of interest of a great historical romance.”--_Philadelphia Times._ The Terror. A Romance of the French Revolution. Uniform with “The Reds of the Midi.” Translated by Mrs. Catharine A. Janvier. 16mo. Cloth, $1.50. “If Félix Gras has never done any other work than this novel, it would at once give him a place in the front rank of the writers of to-day.... ‘The Terror’ is a story that deserves to be widely read, for, while it is of thrilling interest, holding the reader’s attention closely, there is about it a literary quality that makes it worthy of something more than a careless perusal.”--_Brooklyn Eagle._ The Reds of the Midi. An episode of the French Revolution. Translated from the Provençal by Mrs. Catharine A. Janvier. With an Introduction by Thomas A. Janvier. With Frontispiece. 16mo. Cloth, $1.50. “I have read with great and sustained interest ‘The Reds of the South,’ which you were good enough to present to me. Though a work of fiction, it aims at painting the historical features, and such works if faithfully executed throw more light than many so-called histories on the true roots and causes of the Revolution, which are so widely and so gravely misunderstood. As a novel it seems to me to be written with great skill.”--_William E. Gladstone._ BOOKS BY ANTHONY HOPE. The King’s Mirror. Illustrated, 12mo. Cloth, $1.50. “Mr. Hope has never given more sustained proof of his cleverness than in ‘The King’s Mirror.’ In elegance, delicacy, and tact it ranks with the best of his previous novels, while in the wide range of its portraiture and the subtlety of its analysis it surpasses all his earlier ventures.”--_London Spectator._ “Mr. Anthony Hope is at his best in this new novel. He returns in some measure to the color and atmosphere of ‘The Prisoner of Zenda.’... A strong book, charged with close analysis and exquisite irony; a book full of pathos and moral fiber--in short, a book to be read.”--_London Chronicle._
