      z == z - SUNRISE , By WILLIAM BLACK . SDPZEGI-A- ILj 1 TOTICE . Messrs . Sampson Loiv , Marston , & Co . beg to state that > in consequence of the great and general demand for Mr . BLACK'S NRW NOVEL , 'SUNRISE ; 3 vols . the work has been out of print for a few days . A FIRTH EDITION has been prepared and is now ready . Over 3 , 000 Copies have been sold * Among the Press Opinions are the following : — ' The interest of Mr . Black's last novel depends in a large measure upon the character of the heroine , which is at once conventional and picturesque From the outset the girl exercises a sort of fascination over the reader Not only is the story full of interest , but the characters , from that of Natalie downwards , stand out with welcome distinctness . '—Times . The Daily News says : — It deals with those secret societies the workings of which have exploded on the public mind so suddenly and so terribly in the murder of the Emperor of Russia Mr . Black shows his old power on new ground . There is something wonderful in the constant freshness of Mr . Black ' s style Natalie Lind is placed in circumstances entirely different from those of any of Mr . Black ' s former heroines and has to play a bolder and more difficult part Even with the recollection of , Coquette and Sheila before uswe are inclined to think " Sunrise" Mr . Black ' s best novel . There are those who will always , believe " The Daughter of Heth " to be the sweetest of stories , yet even such must recognise the growth of power , the larger grasp , the stronger stroke in this last book . The magic art of description , which is peculiarly his ownhas been uaed in it with more restraintbut equal effect . ' , , ' The best of the novelist ' s writings . '—John Btjxl . ' The finest work of fiction since George Eliot gave us the result of her first labours . ' Court Jourjtax . London : SAMPSON LOW , MARSTON , SEARLE , & RIVINGTON , Crown Buildings , 188 Fleet Street , E . C . ( 192 )
