A. CONAN DOYLE'S NEW NOVEL. 



Duet, with an Occasional Chorus. 



J I By A. CONAN DOYLE, author of " Uncle Bernac," " Brigadier Gerard," 

 '•The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes," etc. Uniform with other books by 

 Dr. Doyle. i2mo. Cloth, $1.50. 



THE scene opens where the conventional novel ends — with a marriage, and another point of differ- 

 ence from the usual novel is that the marriage turns out happily, notwithstanding the varied expe- 

 riences of hero and heroine. Dr. Doyle shows a new phase of his fine talent in this book. As a 

 story of wedded love it has an idyllic character which will appeal to every reader not devoid of healthy 

 sentiment. Probably American readers will feel a stronger interest than their English cousins in the vivid 

 glimpses which the author contrives to introduce of historic scenes in Westminster Abbey, of St. Olaf's 

 Church, the burial-place of Pepys, and of the home of Thomas Carlyle. In a literary way it will be of 

 interest to every one to note that the author of " The White Company " and the creator of " Sherlock 

 Holmes" shows so light, sympathetic, and assured a touch in this charming picture of wedded life. 



It should be noted that the author has sacrificed his serial rights for the sake of presenting his complete 

 story to the public for the first time in book form.

" The spirit and method of Kipling's fresh and virile song have taken the 

 English-reading world. . . . When we turn to the larger portion of ' The 

 Seven Seas,' how imaginative it is, how impassioned, how superbly rhythmic

 Book Buyer. 



"The most original poet who has appeared in his generation. . . . His 

 is the lustiest voice now lifted in the world, the clearest, the bravest, with the

 not put ourselves in the presence of a great poet again, and consent to put 

 off our mourning for the high ones lately dead." — W. D. Howells.

" ' Many Inventions' will confirm Mr. Kipling's reputation. . . . We would cite with pleasure sentences from 

 almost every page, and extract incidents from almost every story. But to what end ? Here is the completest 

 book that Mr. Kipling has yet given us in workmanship, the weightiest and most humane in breadth of view." — 

 Pall Mall Gazette.
