Noah Lyon saw nothing more of his brother after his visit to Riverlawn
when the lieutenant arrived. After he had gone to the South, his wife
and daughters called at the mansion, and declared that they were left
without money or means of support, except so far as they could obtain it
from the little farm.
Deck and Artie Lyon, whose career as soldiers is to appear in these
volumes, now appeared wearing the uniform of cavalrymen, with sabres
clinking at their sides. They have been under fire, though not in a
pitched battle. They are frequent visitors on Sundays at Lyndhall, and
Kate Belthorpe has what her father called "a violent admiration for
Captain Deck," as he still insists upon styling him, assured that, if he
is not of that rank now, he will be in due time. The next volume will
present the two boys and others engaged in actual warfare; and what they
did will be found in "IN THE SADDLE."

LEE AND SHEPARD'S DOLLAR BOOKS
Around the World in Eighty Days. By JULES VERNE. Illustrated.
One of the famous modern books. The author is both learned and
imaginative, and he brings the researches of the scientist in aid of the
story-teller with a skill attained by no other modern writer.
The Wreck of the Chancellor, and Martin Paz. Two stories in one volume.
By JULES VERNE.
The first is an account of the shipwreck of a vessel which sailed from
Charleston, S.C., and was driven upon the west coast of Scotland. The
second is a story of life among Spanish-Americans and Indians in Lima,
South America. Both are masterly specimens of the author's style in
fiction.
Winter in the Ice; Dr. Ox's Experiment; A Drama in the Air. Three
stories in one volume. By JULES VERNE.
The FIRST is a thrilling story of Arctic adventure. The SECOND is a
whimsical but most ingenious experiment with oxygen as a stimulant, upon
the people of a whole city. It is a most subtle and effective story. The
THIRD is the experience of an aeronaut with a madman while making an
ascent.
The tales in the foregoing three volumes were translated from the French
by Hon. George M. Towle, author of "Heroes of History."
The Prairie Crusoe: ADVENTURES IN THE FAR WEST. Translated from the
French.
