"The Woodranger Tales," like the "Pathfinder Tales" of J. Fenimore
Cooper, combine historical information relating to early pioneer
days in America with interesting adventures in the backwoods.
Although the same characters are continued throughout the series,
each book is complete in itself, and, while based strictly on
historical facts, is an interesting and exciting tale of adventure.
_Born to the Blue_. BY FLORENCE KIMBALL RUSSEL.
12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated $1.25
The atmosphere of army life on the plains breathes on every page of
this delightful tale. The boy is the son of a captain of U.S.
cavalry stationed at a frontier post in the days when our regulars
earned the gratitude of a nation.
The author is herself "of the army," and knows every detail of the
life. Her descriptions are accurate, which adds to the value and
interest of the book.
_Pussy-Cat Town_. By MARION AMES TAGGART.
Small quarto, cloth decorative, illustrated and decorated in colors

"Pussy-Cat Town" is a most unusual, delightful cat story. Ban-Ban,
a pure Maltese who belonged to Rob, Kiku-san, Lois's beautiful
snow-white pet, and their neighbors Bedelia the tortoise-shell,
Madame Laura the widow, Wutz Butz the warrior, and wise old Tommy
Traddles, were really and truly cats, and Miss Taggart has here
explained the reason for their mysterious disappearance all one
long summer.
