CORONA AND CORONET. 



By Mabel Loomis Todd. With many il- 

 lustrations. Crown 8vo, $2.50. 



This is a sprightly account of the Amherst Eclipse 

 expedition to Japan in the yacht Coronet in 1896. The 

 voyage was from San Francisco to Honolulu, Yoko- 

 hama, the northern coast of Japan, where the eclipse 

 was observed. The incidents of travel are brightly 

 told, and the hairy Ainus of northern Yezo are de- 

 scribed, as well as the solar eclipse. Some chapters 

 are devoted to the people, scenery, history, and vol- 

 canoes of Hawaii. The book is illustrated from nu- 

 merous photographs taken by the expedition. 



A WORLD OF GREEN HILLS. 



By Bradford Torrey, author of " Birds in 

 the Bush," " The Foot-path Way," " Spring Notes 

 from Tennessee," etc. i6mo, gilt top, $1.25. 



Another of Mr. Torrey's books in which nature, 

 especially bird nature, is treated with equal intelligence 

 and enthusiasm. Here he confines himself mostly to 

 the mountain region of Virginia and North Carolina, 

 where he finds many birds which are old New England 

 acquaintances. His genius for observation and his art 

 in description are as fresh and delightful as ever.

 EPIGRAMS. 



Chiefly from the Sanskrit of Bhartrihari. By Paul 

 E. More, author of " The Great Refusal." i6mo, 

 $1.00.

 hundred epigrams, meditations, and precepts, treating 

 of love, worldly wisdom, and the Hindu religion and 

 philosophy.

 forty-eight full-page engravings of castles, cathe- 

 drals, battle-fields, and landscapes, from photo-

LOOKING BACKWARD. 



By Edward Bellamy. New Edition, with 

 a portrait of Mr. Bellamy, and a Biographical 

 Sketch by Sylvester Baxter. i2mo, $1.00 ; paper, 

 50 cents. 



This remarkable story has had a wider reading than 

 almost any other American book of this generation. 

 One critic felicitously pronounced it "a marvellous 

 story combined with social philosophy and a forecast 

 of the millennium." This new edition has a good 

 portrait, and a sympathetic sketch by Mr. Baxter. 



THE BLINDMAN'S WORLD, 



And Other Stories. By Edward Bellamy. 

 With a Prefatory Sketch by Mr. Howells. i2mo, 

 $1.50. 



These fifteen stories, now first gathered in a vol- 

 ume, are thoroughly interesting, and have in large 

 measure the humane imagination and the eager pur- 

 pose of improving social conditions which distinguish 

 all of Mr. Bellamy's writings. 



THE PURITANS. 



By Arlo Bates, author of " The Pagans," 

 " The Philistines," etc. Second Impression. 

 Crown 8vo, $1.50. 



Mr. Bates reaches a higher level in this novel than 

 in any he has before written. Two young High 

 Churchmen are brought into contact with woridliness, 

 the semi-serious who devise ethical amusements, the 

 ultra- fashionable who take great interest in the cam- 

 paign for the election of a bishop, — and love enters 

 into the drama. It is a thoughtful story, with no little 

 comedy and satire. 



PRISONERS OF HOPE. 



By Mary Johnston. With a Frontispiece. 

 Illustration. Second Impression. Crown 8vo, $1.50. 



A thoroughly interesting story of Colonial Virginia 

 in 1663. The hero is an innocent convict from Eng- 

 land, who leads the famous Oliverian conspiracy, and 

 has thrilling adventures by flood and field with 

 ruffians, gentlemen, and Indians who stole the young 

 woman whom he loved. 



\ LOVER OF TRUTH. 



By Eliza Orne White, author of " Win- 



terborough," " A Browning Courtship," etc. i6mo, 



$1.25. 



This charming New England story is named for a 

 young man who insists on speaking the truth, in sea- 

 son and out of season. Other characters are a young 

 man of good sense, a pretty girl, a girl who is much 

 more than pretty, — and the story is told with bright- 

 ness and humor.
