The Death moctor 
Being the Remarkable Confessions of Archibald D’Esecombe, M.D., 
of Kensington, London, selected by 
LANNER BROWNE, M.D., and Edited by 
WILLIAM LE QUEUX 
Author of ‘* The \lan from Downing Street,” etc 
This book contains the amazing confessions of Archibald 
More d Escombe, M.D., late of Kensington, which were left 
in a sealed packet to his executor, Lanner Browne, with instruc- 
tions to publish them or to destroy them as he deemed fit. 
With Mr. William le Queux’s assistance the mass of disjointed 
notes and memoranda have been carefully edited, and are here 
presen’ed in cold and straightforward language, forming a book 
of a very remarkable and sensational character. It shows how 
a clever and popular physician with a criminal taint can, if he 
chooses, earn five hundred guinea fees, ‘‘and no questions 
asked.’’ The book is one of the strangest and most sensational 
of its class in recent years. 
Christine: a Guernsey Girl 
By E. GALLIENNE ROBIN 
Author of ‘‘ Jacquine of the Hut,” etc 
This tale of Guernsey is much longer and more important 
than the earlier novels by thisauthor. It deals with the present 
time, and gives a vivid picture of the island life, chiefly amongst 
farmers and peasants. One of the principal characters, however, 
lives in the quaint old town, and thus the writer has the oppor- 
tunity of drawing pictures of St. Peter Port and the fine harbour 
and quays. The plot centres round ‘‘ Christine,’’ whose home 
isa lonely cottage on the cliffs of the south-west coast, She 
has a tragic history, partly owing to her own fault of conceal- 
ment, and the action moves dre amatically forward to a crisis 
The ©utpost of Eternity 
By COSMO HAMILTON 
Author of ‘‘ Adam's Clay,” ‘‘ The Princess of New York,” etc. 
Mr. Cosmo Hamilton’s new novel is a story showing the 
effect of parental self-indulgence, dishonesty and looseness on 
two beautiful girls. Opening in the country, the first part of the 
book leads up to the scandalous pecuni+ry crash of the attractive 
scoundrel, Tony Okchampton. All the rest of the scenes are 
laid in London—the London of the moment—and Mr. Cosmo 
Hamilton has drawn memorable pictures of the various shady 
. types who infest the fashionable restaurants, hang on grimly to 
the fringe of Socie'y and live by their wits. Into this whirl- 
pool the two Okel ampton girls are flung, stamped with 
hereditary traits. Ilow they sink and swim is 5 drow in a story 
which for human interest, vivid portraiture and well-sustained 
excitement is far and away the best that has come from this 
author’s pen. 
The Humbug 
By Mrs. TOM GODFREY 
Author of ‘‘ The Marriage of Gwendolin Jane,” ete. 
Patience Parry, the heroine of this interesting story, is an 
old maid of forty, who is still youthful in appearance. Like 
many old maids, she is somewhat despised by others who have 
been more successful in life ; but when the hour of trial comes, 
she reveals a strength of character far transcending that of the 
humbugs who surround her Led, through her own kindness 
of heart. to embark on a life cf deception, she eventually 
‘“wins through,’’ and obtains the happiness she deserves.
