"'The Seven Seas' is packed with inspiration, with humor, with pathos, and with the old unequaled insight into the mind of the rank and file."--London Daily Chronicle. "Mr. Kipling's 'The Seven Seas' is a distinct advance upon his characteristic lines. The surpassing strength, the almost violent originality, the glorious swish and swing of his lines--all are there in increased measure.... The book is a marvel of originality and genius--a brand-new landmark in the history of English letters."--Chicago Tribune. "In 'The Seven Seas' are displayed all of Kipling's prodigious gifts.... Whoever reads 'The Seven Seas' will be vexed by the desire to read it again. The average charm of the gifts alone is irresistible."--Boston Journal. New York: D. APPLETON & CO., 72 Fifth Avenue. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- YEKL. A Tale of the New York Ghetto. By A. Cahan. Uniform with "The Red Badge of Courage." 12mo. Cloth, $1.00.

"The story is a revelation to us. It is written in a spirited, breezy way, with an originality in the telling of which is quite unexpected. The dialect is striking in its truth to Nature."--Boston Courier.
