PAUL TRENT.

A strikingly original novel. It tells of a young man who is kept in seclusion and entirely without knowledge of the world until the age of twenty-one. His development, especially from the religious standpoint, is strikingly realistic and enthralling. A novel likely to be talked about.

MORNING POST.--"Mr. Paul Trent tells a tale well. He has a narrative style that grips and interests, and we are grateful to him for a real and enjoyable story."

No Greater Love

WILLIAM LE QUEUX.

A remarkable story, crowded with the most exciting situations, and bristling with crimes which only the brain of a most versatile author could conceive.

THE SCOTSMAN.--"Few novelists, if any, surpa.s.s Mr. Wm. Le Queux in the art of making a frankly and formidably melodramatic story go with alluring lightness in its intensity."
