BY INGRAHAM LOVELL.
=MARGARITA’S SOUL.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Punch._—“There have been a great many _ingénues_ (mock or
real) in modern fiction, and doubtless one or two in actual
life; but there never was one inside a book or out of it who
came within a four mile cab radius of Margarita. The book is
well worth reading.”
_Westminster Gazette._—“A book which does not let the reader’s
interest flag for a moment. It is full of laughter and smiles,
of seriousness, comfortable philosophy and a few tears.”

BY CHARLES LOWE.
=THE PRINCE’S PRANKS.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Evening Standard_—“The ‘pranks’ are good reading. All his
adventures go with a swing, and the escapes are as exciting as
anything we have read for a long time.”
_Daily Chronicle_—“The book is always bright and often
brilliant.”
_Globe_—“A very readable and pleasant book.”

=A QUESTION OF LATITUDE.= Crown 8vo. 6/-

BY A. NEIL LYONS.
=ARTHUR’S.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Times._—“Not only a very entertaining and amusing work, but a
very kindly and tolerant work also. Incidentally the work is a
mirror of a phase of the low London life of to-day as true as
certain of Hogarth’s transcripts in the eighteenth century, and
far more tender.”
_Punch._—“Mr. Neil Lyons seems to get right at the heart of
things, and I confess to a real admiration for this philosopher
of the coffee-stall.”
=SIXPENNY PIECES.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Pall Mall Gazette._—“It is pure, fast, sheer life, salted with
a sense of humour.”
_Evening Standard._—“‘Sixpenny Pieces’ is as good as
‘Arthur’s’, and that is saying a great deal. A book full of
laughter and tears and hits innumerable that one feels impelled
to read aloud. ‘Sixpenny Pieces’ would be very hard indeed to
beat.”
=COTTAGE PIE.= A Country Spread. Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Daily Graphic_—“Mr. Lyons writes well and has literary
talent.”
_Daily Express._—“Every story is masterly, clear, clean,
complete. Mr. Lyons is a rare literary craftsman and something
more.”
_Athenœum._—“‘Cottage Pie’ is an achievement.”

BY FIONA MACLEOD (William Sharp).
=THE MOUNTAIN LOVERS.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Literary World._—“We eagerly devour page after page; we are
taken captive by the speed and poetry of the book.”
_Graphic._—“It is as sad, as sweet, as the Hebridean skies
themselves, but with that soothing sadness of Nature which is so
blessed a relief after a prolonged dose of the misery of ‘mean
streets.’”
