el, exciting, interesting, and well worked out."--_San Francisco Examiner._ "The author has shown skill in the use of her materials."--_Boston Globe._ "It is a thoroughly human story, and so well constructed that the interest holds one to the end."--_The Review of Reviews_, New York. "The author gives a splendid picture of that magnificent court and the conditions which eventually brought about the revolution. The precarious position of every member of that court from La Pompadour down to the meanest lackey, whose very lives were in constant danger from the whims of the weak but self-indulgent king, is made very real by the author."--_Globe-Democrat_, St. Louis. _Illustrations by John Ward Dunsmore. 12mo, Cloth. $1.50_ FUNK & WAGNALLS COMPANY, Publishers NEW YORK AND LONDON MISERERE By MABEL WAGNALLS _Author of "Stars of the Opera," &c._ A brief, but beautiful romance in which the discovery of a rich and powerful voice leads ultimately to a climax as thrilling as the death scene in "Romeo and Juliet." The story is told with simple grace and directness, and is singularly pathetic and forceful. "It is perfectly delightful. The theme is new and interesting."--_Ella Wheeler Wilcox._ "It is a story of tender and pathetic interest--the story of a woman with a wonderfully beautiful voice. A dainty and fascinating romance which will appeal to music lovers."--_Chicago News._ "It vibrates with musical sentiment. There is a good deal of artistic skill displayed in its description."--_Boston Watchman._ "A story unique in theme, delightfully told with many delicate touches."--_The Arena_, Boston. _Small 12mo, Cloth.
