BY THE SAME AUTHOR
REGINALD

"He is a delightful person. One would not like a rich and
octogenarian uncle to suppose that Reginald was one's ideal of
conduct and conversion. Yet there is sometimes reason in his
paradoxical frivolities, and justice in his practical
performances."--_Morning Post_.

"The book, by reason of its sustained brilliance, may be likened to a
Brock's Benefit at the Crystal Palace."--_Athenaeum_.

"Mr. H. H. Munro ('Saki') has one of the lightest and most
entertaining touches of the humorists of the day . . . The book is
admirable comedy and free from malice and bad taste."--_Queen_.

"We feel sure that those who have already made Reginald's
acquaintance will be glad to renew it, and that those who know him
not will not regret it if they add him to the list of their
fictitious (albeit very real) acquaintances, not to say
friends."--_Westminster Gazette_.
