Also a POPULAR EDITION of WILKIE COLLINS'S NOVELS, post 8vo, Illustrated boards, 2s. each. Felicia.

With a Frontispiece by W. Bowles.

By M. BETHAM-EDWARDS.

"A noble novel. Its teaching is elevated, its story is sympathetic, and the kind of feeling its perusal leaves behind is that more ordinarily derived from music or poetry than from prose fiction. Few works in modern fiction stand as high in our estimation as this."-SUNDAY TIMES.

THE PICCADILLY NOVELS-continued.

The Queen of Connaught.

The Dark Colleen.

"A novel which possesses the rare and valuable quality of novelty.

The

scenery will be strange to most readers, and in many passages the aspects of Nature are very cleverly described. Moreover, the book is a study of a very curious and interesting state of society. A novel which no novel-reader should miss, and which people who generally shun novels may enjoy."-SATURDAY REVIEW.

Patricia Kemball.

With Frontispiece by G. DU MAurier.

By E. LYNN LINTON.

"Displays genuine humour, as well as keen social observation. Enough graphic portraiture and witty observation to furnish materials for half-a-dozen novels of the ordinary kind."-SATURDAY Review.

The Atonement of Leam Dundas.

By E. LYNN LINTON.

With a Frontispiece by HENRY WOODS. "In her narrowness and her depth, in her boundless loyalty, her self-forgetting passion, that exclusiveness of love which is akin to cruelty, and the fierce humility which is vicarious pride, Leam Dundas is a striking figure. quality the authoress has in some measure surpassed herself."-PALL MALL.

In one

The Evil Eye,and other Stories. By KATHARINE S.MAcquoid.

Illustrated by THOMAS R. MACQUOID and PERCY MACQUOID.

"Cameos delicately, if not very minutely or vividly, wrought, and quite finished enough to give a pleasurable sense of artistic ease and faculty. A word of commendation is merited by the illustrations."—ACADEMY.

Number Seventeen.

Oakshott Castle.

With a Frontispiece by SHIRLEY HODSON.

By HENRY KINGSLEY.

By HENRY KINGSLEY.

"A brisk and clear north wind of sentiment-sentiment that braces instead of enervating-blows through all his works, and makes all their readers at once healthier and more glad."-Spectator.

Open! Sesame!

Illustrated by F. A. FRASER.

By FLORENCE Marryat.

They also possess

another distinct claim to our liking: the girls in them are remarkably charming and true to nature, as most people, we believe, have the good fortune to observe nature represented by girls."-SPECTator.

THE PICCADILLY NOVELS-continued.

The Way we Live Now.

By ANTHONY TROLLOPE.

With Illustrations.

The American Senator.

By ANTHONY TROLLOPE.

"Mr. Trollope has a true artist's idea of tone, of colour, of harmony: his pictures are one, and seldom out of drawing; he never strains after effect, is fidelity itself in expressing English life, is never guilty of caricature.' FORTNIGHTLY REVIEW.

Diamond Cut Diamond.

By T. A. TROllope.

When

"Full of life, of interest, of close observation, and sympathy. Mr. Trollope paints a scene it is sure to be a scene worth painting."-SATURDAY REVIEW.

[blocks in formation]

"A carefully written and beautiful story-a story of goodness and truth, which is yet as interesting as though it dealt with the opposite qualities. The author of this really clever story has been at great pains to work out all its details with elaborate conscientiousness, and the result is a very vivid picture of the ways of life and habits of thought of a hundred and fifty years ago. Certainly a very interesting book."-TIMES.

CHEAP EDITION OF OUIDA'S NEW NOVEL.. Crown 8vo, cloth extra (uniform with the other Volumes of the

Ariadnê.

Series) 5s.

By OUIDA.

"

Ouida's new story, Ariadne,' is not only a great romance, but a great and consummate work of art, remarkable beyond anything which she has yet given us for the combination of simplicity, passion, severity, and beauty. The work stands on an altogether loftier level than anything previously attempted by its author. It is as complete and crowning a triumph of the skill of the writer that, out of materials so simple, with no accessories in the way of plot, and only four principal dramatis persone, she should have wrought a result so rich in colour, so beautiful in proportions, as it is of the sculptor's skill that he should be able to transform the solid and shapeless marble into the counterfeit presentment of life. The pages are studded with epigrams and short and felicitous sayings, wherein much wisdom and knowledge of human nature are enshrined. In an asthetic age like the present, the artistic element in the book will be generally a recommendation. It is as a work of art that 'Ariadne' must be judged; and as such we may almost venture to pronounce it without fault or flaw in its beauty."-THE WORLD.
