THE KENTUCKIANS.
A Novel. Ill.u.s.trated by W. T. SMEDLEY.
This, Mr. Fox"s first long story, sets him well in view, and distinguishes him as at once original and sound. He takes the right view of the story-writer"s function and the wholesale view of what the art of fiction can rightfully attempt.--_Independent_, N. Y.

If there is a more droll or more delightful writer now living than Mr. Frank R. Stockton we should be slow to make his acquaintance, on the ground that the limit of safety might be pa.s.sed.... Mr. Stockton"s humor a.s.serts itself admirably, and the story is altogether enjoyable.--_Independent_, N. Y.
The interest never flags, and there is nothing intermittent about the sparkling humor.--_Philadelphia Press_.
