"Tarry Thou Till | Come. y

"The Wandering Jew" is having .
wonderful revival in literature lately
The first book in this fascinating field
was "Salathiel," by Geo. Croly
Christs words to whom, "Tarry thou
till | come" spoken beneath the weight
of the cross to the soothing Pharisee
sets the Jew wandering. Most notable
followers of this story were Eugene
Sues masterpiece, and "The Price OF
India" by the author of "Ben Hur.n
General Wallace himself praises Croly's
"Salathiel" as one of the six greatest
English novels ever written. One New
York publisher has lately issued an IL
Illustrated edition at $l.40 net. Now
comes John b. Alden, so well known
as the pioneer in cheap book publish
ing, with an excellent edition at CSC.
Even this with q view to widely ex-
tending the knowledge of his publica-
tons, he offers to mail post paid to the
readers of the Public Opinion for the
nominal price of l2c., If they will order
