CHESTER, author of "Girls and Women."

A HOUSE OF POMEGRANATES. By OSCAR WILDE. With designs and decorations by C. RICKETTS and C. H. SHANNON. $5.00.

The author calls this a book of Fairy Tales, but it is not for young people; it is rather a book of parables.

Containing 82 Maps of all Countries of the World, including new County Maps of the United States and a Statistical Appendix. $3.00.

FOUR NEW NOVELS.

A COLONY OF GIRLS. By KATE LIVINGSTON WILLARD. $1.00; paper, 50 cents.

The characters are cultivated and charming people, jolly, witty, good, with much individuality. There are at least three love cases in the story. A thoroughly delightful book.

A HIGHLAND CHRONICLE. By S. BAYARD DOD. $1.00; paper, 50 cents.

A strong and exceedingly interesting tale of the times of the last attempt of the Stuart Pretender in Scotland. While the story is historical, it is not entirely so. The hero is a remarkable character. The picture of gypsy life is novel and truthful. PRINCE SEREBRYANI. An Historical Novel of the Times of Ivan the Terrible and of the Conquest of Siberia. By Count ALEXIS TOLSTOI. Translated from the Russian, by JEREMIAH CURTIN. $1.50. Count Alexis Tolstoi, the author of this work, was an elder brother of Count Leo Tolstoi, the famous novelist and philanthropist. His historical novel translated by Mr. Curtin (translator of "The Deluge" and "With Fire and Sword") shows the per of a master. As an historical sketch it is brilliant; as a novel it is of absorbing and even terrible interest. It would be difficult to find anything in fiction equal in power to the two chapters, "The Frost of Ivan" and "The Tsar's Jester." LOVE FOR AN HOUR IS LOVE FOREVER. By AMELIA E. BARR. $1.25.

The scene of Mrs. Barr's new story is laid both in the Old World and the New. It is quite unlike many of her previous works, but possesses the same charm of style, the keen insight into character and beauty of description characterizing them all.
