50 full-page photogravures from original negatives.

In political importance, historic interest, commer¬ 
cial greatness, and social characteristics, London is 
the mistress of the world. Strange to say there has 
been no book hitherto which thoroughly and fully 
describes this wondrous city. Mr. Francis, in 
undertaking this work, after exhausting the libraries 
of this country, has spent the last two years in 
London in research upon the spot, and has produced 
a work which will be an authority on this subject.

By Charles Johnston. Illustrated with 25 full- 
page photogravures and a map. Crown 8vo, 
cloth gilt, gilt top, with cloth jackets, and in a 
cloth box, ftj.oo. 
Although Ireland has been written about by many 
writers, it has never been done so effectually and 
sympathetically as by Mr. Johnston. Commencing 
with the dolmens and round towers of unknown 
history, Mr. Johnston has brought his subject down 
to the present time, omitting nothing which could 
add to the interest and charms of the Emerald Isle.

Scotland is the most interesting and picturesque 
country in Europe. Poetry and romance have made 
its lochs and mountains famous the world over. 
Miss Lansdale has entered fully into the spirit of her 
subject.

CAPTAIN 
BLUITT 
By Charles Heber Clark (Max Adeleri 
Author of “Out of the Hurly-Burly,” etc. 
1 zmo, cloth extra, illustrated, $1.^0. 
“ Persons with long memories and delicate sense 
of humor will be delighted by the announcement of 
a novel bv ‘Max Adder’ (Charles Heber Clark). 
The author is almost the only humorist of twenty 
vears ago whose books are still in large demand, 
and he is the only humorist of that period who has 
for twenty years refused to be funny—in print. 
‘ Captain Bluitt ’ is a delightful compound of wit, 
wisdom, sentiment and sense.”
