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
