(Second Edition. Crown 8vo, cloth, 3s. 6d.) "Mr. Pain has a delicate fancy and a graceful style, a bitter-sweet humour, and a plentiful endowment of 'the finer perceptions.'" --Punch. "Amazingly clever.... Teems with satire and good things."-- Speaker. "'The Magic Morning,' though dealing with a young city man and his wife, has the atmosphere of far-away dreaminess which is so charming in some of Nathaniel Hawthorne's short stories."-- (Saturday Review.) "There is something delightfully, because unsatisfactorily, fascinating in these stories, with their touch of diablerie, their elusiveness."-- (National Review.) "If we laugh less over these pages than over the grotesque absurdities that abounded in the former collection of sketches, we are the more fascinated by the quiet subtlety of their humour, their irony and pathos."-- (Evening News and Post.) "There is a great charm about these stories and interludes."-- (Vanity Fair.) "Full of charm, fantasy, and pathos."-- (Ladies' Pictorial.) "The book as a whole is decidedly clever."-- Guardian.
