LONE PINE
New Fiction
SMITH BRUNT
United States Navy. By Waldron K. Post, author of "Harvard Stories," etc. 12º, 459 pages, $1.50.
"A rattling good story of the Old Navy.... The book recalls Harry Gringo by its breadth and interest of plot; which means it is a first-class sea story. It is not an imitation, however.... The prevailing thought of the book is the unity of aims, ideals and race between Englishmen and Americans, and this idea is brought out so well that, even though the reader enjoys the story of the fierce sea-fights, he deplores the shedding of blood by brothers' hands."—Buffalo Courier.
BEARERS OF THE BURDEN
Being Stories of Land and Sea. By Major W. P. Drury, Royal Marines. 12º, 286 pages, $1.00.
"Major Drury's stories combine pathos and humor with an underlying earnestness that betrays a clear moral vision. The whole volume is of a rare and wholesome quality."—Chicago Tribune.
ROSALBA
The Story of Her Development. By Olive Pratt Rayner (Grant Allen), author of "Flowers and Their Pedigrees," etc. Hudson Library, No. 39. 12º, 396 pages, paper, 50 cts.; cloth, $1.00.
"A story which holds the reader with profound interest to the closing lines."—Chicago Inter-Ocean.
ABOARD "THE AMERICAN DUCHESS"
By Headon Hill. Hudson Library, No. 41. 12º, paper, 50 cts.; cloth, $1.00.
Note.—This is a reprint of a work previously published under the title of "Queen of the Night"—with certain changes of names.
"He has certainly given to the reading public a capital story full of action. It is a bright novel and contains many admirable chapters. Life on the ocean is well depicted, many exciting episodes are well told, and it will interest readers of all classes."—Knoxville Sentinel.
THE PRIEST'S MARRIAGE
