,
and as the sound of galloping hoofs grew fainter, she watched his
diminishing figure until it was swallowed up in the distance.
Impulsively she stretched out her arms to him: "Good luck to you, my
knight!" she called, but the words ended in a sob, and she turned her
horse and, with a vast happiness in her heart, rode back toward the
town.

A Story of the Cattle Country
By
James B. Hendryx
Author of "The Promise," etc.
A novel of the cattle country and of the mountains, by James
B. Hendryx, will at once commend itself to the host of
readers who have enthusiastically followed this brilliant
writer's work. Again he has written a red-blooded, romantic
story of the great open spaces, of the men who "do" things
and of the women who are brave--a tale at once turbulent and
tender, impassioned but restrained.

_12^o. Picture Wrapper and Color Frontispiece_
_$1.50 net. By mail, $1.65_
A novel of the Northwest, where civilization and savagery
lock in the death struggle; where men of iron hearts are
molded by a woman's tenderness; where knave and knight cross
the barriers to confront each other in the great reckoning;
where nobility and courage throw down the gage to evil and
intrigue, and the gun-brand leaves its seared and indelible
impress upon the brow of a scoundrel. Here's a novel of love
and life, danger and daring.

The Untamed
By
Max Brand
A tale of the West, a story of the Wild; of three strange
comrades,--Whistling Dan of the untamed soul, within whose
mild eyes there lurks the baleful yellow glare of beast
anger; of the mighty black stallion Satan, King of the
Ranges, and the wolf devil dog, to whom their master's word
is the only law,--and of the Girl.
How Jim Silent, the "long-rider" and outlaw, declared feud
with Dan, how of his right-hand men one strove for the Girl,
one for the horse, and one to "'get' that black devil of a
dog," and their desperate efforts to achieve their ends,
form but part of the stirring action.
