hapter, and paves the way for a story which becomes more and more intense and interesting as its remarkable plot is developed. MY LADY CLANCARTY _A Gallant Romance of Love and Daring_ By MARY IMLAY TAYLOR Author of "On the Red Staircase," etc. In this gallant romance of love and daring, in which the action is swift, the characters are individual and interesting, and the atmosphere and setting are well adapted to the theme. Lady Elizabeth Spencer, daughter of Lord Sunderland, and through his sordid and ambitious motives married at the age of eleven to Lord Clancarty, makes the most charming of heroines, and her nobility of character and faithful love are finely and tenderly portrayed. A PRINCE OF LOVERS _A Story of Adventure, Intrigue, and Love_ By SIR WILLIAM MAGNAY Author of "The Red Chancellor," etc. In this new novel by Sir William Magnay, the heroine, "Princess Ruperta," a princess of the blood royal, sick of the monotony and unreality of Court, goes out one night, incognito, with her maid. Danger unexpectedly threatens her, and when she is gallantly rescued from this danger by a young and handsome stranger, it is not unnatural that (betrothed compulsorily as she is for State reasons to a royal person whom she has never seen) love is born in the heart of the Princess as well as in that of her unknown rescuer. Then follows a series of adventures brilliantly imagined and enthrallingly told. JUSTIN WINGATE, RANCHMAN _A Story of Colorado Life_ By JOHN H. WHITSON Author of "Barbara, a Woman of the West," "The Rainbow Chasers," etc. Another strong Western story with spirited and graphic picturing of local conditions, the agricultural development of a Western ranch section, and the struggle between the ranchmen and the farmers. The story has three remarkably striking scenes of danger--a high-grass fire, a stampede of excited cattle, and a terrific storm and cloud-burst. There is abundant love interest; also a strong political element, dealing with Colorado politics and the fight between cattlemen and irrigationists to control the legislature, in which the hero becomes the storm centre. The attempt of a beautiful, crafty, and unscrupulous woman, who is a wrecker of hearts and of men, to influence his vote for United States senator plays an important part. CURLY _A Tale of the Arizona Desert_ By ROGER POCOCK Author of "Following the Frontier," etc. A remarkable story
