A Detective Story Worth While, by Henry Kitchell Webster. Frontispiece. 12mo. Decorated cloth, $1.50. A detective story you ought to read. Something altogether _different_ in that the clues to the mystery lie open to the reader throughout the whole story, and are yet so concealed that the unsuspecting reader is amazed at the outcome. To those who have tired of the ordinary type of detective story, we commend this _different_ novel as most refreshing. D. APPLETON AND COMPANY, NEW YORK. NOVELS BY ROBERT W.
