Indiana drew a little space away, quoting his own words, with uplifted
hands, "’And as he wove he heard singing, a choir of beautiful, jubilant
voices.’"
Thurston looked into her eyes, then held out his arms. "I hear them,
Indiana!"

*The Invaders*
*By JOHN LLOYD.*
12mo; cloth; illustrated. $1.50.
The story is one of ranch life and of the troubles with the so-called
cattle-thieves, which eventuated in one of the most dramatic incidents
of the ever-dramatic West—the famous "Rustler War."
The cattlemen alleged that their fight was one against "Rustlers"; their
opponents contended that they were but honest homesteaders, whose only
crime was that of fencing in their possessions, thereby destroying the
open range. Owen Wister’s great story, "The Virginian," gives the
cattlemen’s side of the controversy; "The Invaders" is written from the
opposing viewpoint.
Into this stirring history, the hero, John Thorpe, a tenderfoot, is
precipitated, and it is his part in the struggle that furnishes the
thread of the story. The love plot introduced early in the tale
enlivens the story and sustains the reader’s interest throughout.

*Fanny Lambert*
*By HENRY DEVERE STACPOOLE.*
Author of "The Crimson Azaleas," "The
Blue Lagoon," etc., etc.
12mo; cloth. $1.50.
The two chief figures in this story are Fanny Lambert and her father,
two entirely unconventional characters, delightfully simple and
unworldly. The book is full of irresistably humorous touches,
irresponsible fun being, in fact, its characteristic feature. The
lesser figures, down to the merest thumbnail sketches, are all
incisively drawn.

*For Charles the Rover*
*By MAY WYNNE.*
12mo, cloth $1.50
Author of "Henry of Navarre," etc., etc.
A rattling good story of love and intrigue in good old Ireland in the
days and for the cause of Charles the Rover.
"Of all the days that’s in the year
The tenth of June I love most dear,
When sweet white roses do appear
For sake of Charles the Rover.
"Our noble Ormond, he is drest,
A rose is glancing at his breast;
His famous hounds have doffed his crest,
White roses deck them over."
R. F. FENNO & CO., 18 East 17th St., N.Y.
