A GREAT NOVEL.

A SON OF OLD HARRY.

A Novel. By ALBION W. TOURGEE, author of "A Fool's Errand," "Bricks Without Straw," Figs and Thistles," "Hot Plowshares," etc. Illustrated by Warren B. Davis. 12mo, price $1.50.

Nothing more original and more true to life and nature has ever appeared in America than this story of the Kentucky blue grass region and its horses and horse-loving people. No reader of his novels needs to be told that Judge Tourgée loves a horse. His horses are something more than mere incidents or furniture; they are actual characters, and so linked with the personality and fortunes of his people that they are essential to the action and development of the novel. In "A Son of Old Harry" he has given a free rein to his pen in dealing with a subject so near his heart. It contains the best that he has to give on the subject. The sweet and pure love history, which forms the groundwork, and the thrilling incidents of the war in Kentucky. which form an important part, give the novel immense interest.

"A GOOD FRENCH NOVEL."

MADEMOISELLE DESROCHES

Translated from the French of ANDRE THEURIET, by Meta de Vere. With illustrations by Harry C. Edwards. 12mo, 320 pages, illustrated, handsomely bound in cloth, price $1.00; paper cover, 50 cents.

"Mademoiselle Desroches,' from the French of André Theuriet, is a very pleasant story, wholly free from any taint of vice or vulgarity, but with abundance of life and action. Theuriet is one of the French novelists who does not find it necessary to rake in a muck heap for his characters, nor to narrate all sorts of imaginary crimes for his incidents. The book is not a great novel, but it is an exceedingly readable one.". San Francisco Chronicle.

"His Angel" is an exceptionally striking and exciting HAMERTON'S "LANDSCAPE." Landscape, Wanted, Partner in a Literary

story of wild life and adventure. The characters are drawn with the vividness and fidelity of Mr. Bret Harte, and the interest of the tale never flags from start to finish. The success of Mr. Herman's two recent stories, "Eagle Joe" and A Leading Lady," sufficiently proves the author's popularity as a novelist, and in "His Angel" he has written a tale of remarkable power and breathless interest.
