Hugh Walpole recently wrote of Francis Brett YounE as "the
man who is, I think, among the more romantic younger English
novelists, easily the first. ... I am tempted to say that he
writes better English prose than any living English novelist save
only Conrad. Wnether that is true or no, his work is of very real

novel."

The Worldlings
is a fresh evidence of the quality of charm
which has so fully justified tlie admirers of
LEONARD MERRICK
in the issue of a Collected Edition of his Works
The Ncto York Time 3ays: "It has the fineness as of pure
gold. . . . Those whose primary demand is for a 'story'
will find in this book a series of events as enthralling and
often as unexpected as any one could wish; . . . while
those who wish to see humanity portrayed truly, portrayed
with its foibles and weaknesses and potentialities for great
ness, will scarcely need to be advised to read a novel which
bears upon its title pagethe name of Leonard Merrick."
By the author of "Conrad in Quest of His Youth," "The Actor
Manager," "Cynthia," "The Position of Peggy Harper," "The Man
Who Understood Women," "While Paris Laughed," etc.
