THE STORY OF A FIGHT FOR A THRONE DArtagnan, the SINne Make Fo" By ALEXANDRE DUMAS. Written originally by Dumas asa play, and now for the first time novelized and translated into English. The Philadelphia Enqutrer says: ‘‘A pretty love story in which the debonair cavalier falls victim to Cupi ’s wiles is one of the interesting threads running through the book.”’ The Chicago Record-Herald says: “Tt is singular that this bit of romance has been suffered to remain hidden away for so long a time. D’Artagnan’s manner of winning the hermit kingdom _ contains enough thrills to repay a careful reading. The story ooz-s adventure at every chapter.’’ The Brooklyn Eagle says: “Tt is a strong tale brimful of incident from the moment when Cardinal Riche jeu dispatches the redoubtable D’ Artagnan on his king-making mission to Portugal.’’ 12mo., Illustrated.
