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. The scene is laid at Althorpe, the stately home of the Spencers. 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 Story of Colorado Life_ Justin Wingate, Ranchman By JOHN H. WHITSON Author of “Barbara, a Woman of the West,” “The Rainbow Chasers,” etc. _Illustrated._ _12mo._ $1.50 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. _A Tale of the Arizona Desert_ CURLY By ROGER POCOCK Author of “Following the Frontier,” etc. _Illustrated by Stanley L. Wood._ _12mo._ $1.50 A remarkable story of cattle ranges of Arizona, the great desert, and the grand cañon of the Colorado river. The author has written a romance of adventure, of conflict, and of love,--a story of breathless interest, remarkable situation, and great humor and pathos. Chalkeye, the cowboy who tells the story, Captain McCalmont, the robber-chief, Lord Babshannon, the owner of a Colorado ranch, his son “Jim,” and “Curly,” who gives the name to the story, are characters of great strength, finely portrayed and well contrasted. _By the Author of “The Shadow of the Czar”_ THE WEIRD PICTURE By JOHN R. CARLING Author of “The Viking’s Skull,” “The Shadow of the Czar,” etc. _With Pictures by Cyrus Cuneo._ _12mo._ $1.50 When a man is summoned home to attend the marriage to another man of the woman he loves, and when the bridegroom is his own brother, the situation is certainly very striking. The wedding does not take place, for the bridegroom is murdered. The scene in which the victim appears to his brother, on the latter’s arrival at Dover, is singularly impressive. All this is disclosed in the opening chapter, and paves the way for a story which becomes more and more intense and interesting as its remarkable plot is developed. _A Romance of the Reign of Tiberius_ PSYCHE By WALTER S. CRAMP _Illustrated._ _12mo._ $1.50
