AN INTERESTING ANNOUNCEMENT.

The most important work from the pen of ANTHONY HOPE since the publication of " The Prisoner of Zenda," is to be entitled

"PHROSO"

and is to be issued early in 1897.

IT IS OF THE SAME GENERAL NATURE AS "THE PRISONER OF ZENDA," BUT SURPASSES THE LATTER IN MANY RESPECTS.

The hero is a young English lord of to-day— a man of the same stamp as Rudolph Rassendyl; while the heroine is the lady Euphrosyne (Phroso) of Neopolia and more than equals Flavia in courage, interest and charm.

Henry B. Weschler has spent nearly a year upon the numerous illustrations, working from the model and making use of a collection of Greek costumes, weapons, etc.


The book will be published at $1.50 and will be well printed and bound; and an extraordinary success is expected by its publishers.
