"Romantic, ingenious and stirring fiction."--_N. Y. Times._ "A tale of adventure that never slackens its headlong pace. It is a lively and altogether satisfactory piece of fiction."--_New York Tribune._ J. B. LIPPINCOTT COMPANY PUBLISHERS PHILADELPHIA "_'The Lady Doc' is a stirring and deeply-appealing volume._"--_Boston Globe._ The Lady Doc By CAROLINE LOCKHART _Author of "Me--Smith."_ _Illustrated by Gayle Hoskins. 12mo. Cloth, $1.25 net._ The Lady Doc is a woman physician graduate of one of the "diploma mills" who settles in a typical little "cow-town" of the Far West. The town is in process of booming and the "Lady Doc," being a woman of strong personality and more than average looks, enters with avidity into the difficulties which arise. She allies herself with the local "Ward McAllister," who has his own troubles when he attempts to draw social lines among the crude Westerners, and many humorous and tragic events follow. There is also a merry little "biscuit shooter" with an unusual history who gains a lover in the young Easterner who arrives just when things are beginning to get interesting. "The humor is at times irresistible."--_Philadelphia Press._ "A compelling story--one so absorbing that hours slip by unnoticed until the end is reached."--_Chicago Tribune._ J. B.
