         BARABBAS: A DREAM OF THE WORLD’S TRAGEDY. _Thirty-Ninth Edition._
               ‘The tender reverence of the treatment and the imaginative
                beauty of the writing have reconciled us to the daring of
                the conception. This “Dream of the World’s Tragedy” is a
                lofty and not inadequate paraphrase of the supreme climax
                of the inspired narrative.’—_Dublin Review._
         THE SORROWS OF SATAN. _Forty-Eighth Edition._
               ‘A very powerful piece of work....
                The conception is magnificent, and is likely to win an
                abiding place within the memory of man....
                The author has immense command of language, and a
                limitless audacity....
                This interesting and remarkable romance will live long
                after much of the ephemeral literature of the day is
                forgotten....
                A literary phenomenon ... novel, and even sublime.’
                        —W. T. STEAD in the _Review of Reviews_.

         THE MASTER CHRISTIAN.                         [_165th Thousand._
               ‘It cannot be denied that “The Master Christian” is a
                powerful book; that it is one likely to raise
                uncomfortable questions in all but the most
                self-satisfied readers, and that it strikes at the root
                of the failure of the Churches—the decay of faith—in a
                manner which shows the inevitable disaster heaping
                up.... The good Cardinal Bonpré is a beautiful figure,
                fit to stand beside the good Bishop in “Les Misérables.”
                It is a book with a serious purpose expressed with
                absolute unconventionality and passion....
                And this is to say it is a book worth reading.’
                                                           —_Examiner._

         TEMPORAL POWER: A STUDY IN SUPREMACY.           [_150th Thousand._
               ‘It is impossible to read such a work as “Temporal Power”
                without becoming convinced that the story is intended
                to convey certain criticisms on the ways of the world
                and certain suggestions for the betterment of humanity....
                If the chief intention of the book was to hold the
                mirror up to shards, injustice, dishonesty, cruelty,
                and neglect of conscience, nothing but praise can be
                given to that intention.’—_Morning Post._
