HER TITLE OF HONOUR.

By HOLME LEE. Author of Kathie Brande,' ' For Richer for Poorer,' &c. 1 vol. crown 8vo. Second Edition.

'It is unnecessary to recommend tales of Holme Lee's, for they are well known and all more or less liked. But this book far exceeds even our favourites, "Sylvan Holt's Daughter," "Kathie Brande," and " Thorney Hall," because with the interest of a pathetic story is united the value of a definite and high purpose; and because, also, it is a careful and beautiful piece of writing, and is full of studies of refined and charming character.'SPECTATOR.

'The graceful writer and accomplished lady who takes the name of Holme Lee as her nom de plume, has never written a more fascinating story than the one under the above heading.'-PUBLIC OPINION.

"Her Title of Honour" deserves in many respects to be ranked among the best of Holme Lee's works. It is a simple and unambitious story of every-day home life among ordinary English people, just what Holme Lee knows how to write, and she has done it in her very best manner. The characters are all strongly marked, well developed, and sustained throughout.'-EXAMINER.

• All who care for the progress of liberal thought will read it with profit.' -EXAMINER.

A very fair statement of the views in respect to freedom of thought held by the liberal party in the Church of England.'-BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE.

'No one who reads these sermons will wonder that Mr. Brooke is a great power in London, that his chapel is thronged, and his followers large and enthusiastic. They are fiery, energetic, impetuous sermons, rich with the treasures of a cultivated imagination.'-GUARDIAN.

'Mr. Brooke's sermons are shrewd and clever, and always readable. He is better off than many preachers, for he has something to say, and says it.' CHURCHMAN'S MAGAZINE.

A fine specimen of the best preaching of the episcopal pulpit.'—BRITISH QUARTERLY.
