Three Sterling Novels
Reading edition
By the celebrated author of "As In a Looking Glass," F. C. PHILIPS.
No male author of the present day has shown such a keen and sympathetic appreciation of that wonderful mystery, a woman's heart, as F. C. Philips. Indeed, the question has often been asked whether this name is not merely a veil concealing the identity of a clever woman.
Margaret Byng.
Printed on fine paper and bound in illuminated cover.
Price, - - 25 Cents.
The heroine of this tale is undoubtedly one of the strongest creations in fiction. Her adventures in the gaming-halls of Monte Carlo, her subsequent connection with the mystery of a murder committed in a railway carriage and the solution of the same, combine to make a narrative of startling intensity.
A Lucky Young Woman.
Bound uniform with the above, with handsome pictured cover.
Price, - - 25 Cents.
An admirable portrait of certain phases of English high life. The book reads from cover to cover with crispness and sincerity. It is one of those stories whose close we regret ever to have reached.
Little Mrs. Murray.
Bound uniform with the above, adorned with a handsome pictured cover.
Price, - - 25 Cents.
The charming autobiographical form of this story has much in common with the author's first success, "As In a Looking Glass." But one follows the career of Little Mrs. Murray with much greater avidity because she is an eminently attractive character. Her brief term on the stage might serve as a lesson for those who think life on the boards is as bright as the glow of footlights; and later, her remarkable experience as matron in a mad house brings about a sudden and quite unlooked for denouement.
Any or all of the above volumes can be procured from the booksellers and newsdealers, or will be sent, postage paid, on receipt of price, by the publishers,
