_The New Era_, Lancaster, Pa.: "Undoubtedly one of the truest humorists. Nothing short of a cast-iron man can resist the exquisite, droll and contagious mirth of her writings." _ARCHIBALD MALMAISON._ A New Novel. By JULIAN HAWTHORNE. 12mo, paper, 15 cts; cloth, extra paper, 75 cts. _INDEPENDENT, N. Y._ "Mr. Julian Hawthorne can choose no better compliment upon his new romance, 'ARCHIBALD MALMAISON,' than the assurance that he has at last put forth a story which reads as if the manuscript, written in his father's indecipherable handwriting and signed 'Nathaniel Hawthorne,' had lain shut into a desk for twenty-five years, to be only just now pulled out and printed. It is a masterful romance; short, compressed, terribly dramatic in its important situations, based upon a psychologic idea as weird and susceptible of startling treatment as possible. It is a book to be read through in two hours, but to dwell in the memory forever. The employment of the central theme and the literary conduct of the plot is nearly beyond criticism." _R. H. STODDARD, IN NEW YORK MAIL AND EXPRESS._ "The climax is so terrible, as the London _Times_ has pointed out, and so dramatic in its intensity, that it is impossible to class it with any situation of modern fiction.... Mr. Hawthorne is clearly and easily the first of living romancers." _THE LONDON TIMES._ "After perusal of this weird, fantastic tale (Archibald Malmaison), it must be admitted that upon the shoulders of Julian Hawthorne has descended in no small degree the mantle of his more illustrious father. The climax is so terrible, and so dramatic in its intensity, that it is impossible to class it with any situation of modern fiction. There is much psychological ingenuity shown in some of the more subtle touches that lend an air of reality to this wild romance." _THE LONDON GLOBE._ "'Archibald Malmaison' is one of the most daring attempts to set the wildest fancy masquerading in the cloak of science, which has ever, perhaps been made. Mr. Hawthorne has managed to combine the almost perfect construction of a typical French novelist, with a more than typically German power of conception." _THE ACADEMY._ "Mr. Hawthorne has a more powerful imagination than any contemporary writer of fiction. He has the very uncommon gift of taking hold of the reader's attention at once, and the still more uncommon gift of maintaining his grasp when it is fixed." _THE FORTUNES OF RACHEL._ A New Novel. By EDWARD EVERETT HALE. 12mo, paper, 25c.; cloth, $1.
