GEORGE W. OGDEN'S WESTERN NOVELS
May be had wherever books are sold. Ask for Grosset & Dunlap's list.
THE BARON OF DIAMOND TAIL The Elk Mountain Cattle Co. had not paid a dividend in years; so Edgar Barrett, fresh from the navy, was sent West to see what was wrong at the ranch. The tale of this tenderfoot outwitting the buckaroos at their own play will sweep you into the action of this salient western novel.
THE BONDBOY Joe Newbolt, bound out by force of family conditions to work for a number of years, is accused of murder and circumstances are against him. His mouth is sealed; he cannot, as a gentleman, utter the words that would clear him. A dramatic, romantic tale of intense interest.
CLAIM NUMBER ONE Dr. Warren Slavens drew claim number one, which entitled him to first choice of rich lands on an Indian reservation in Wyoming. It meant a fortune; but before he established his ownership he had a bard battle with crooks and politicians.
THE DUKE OF CHIMNEY BUTTE When Jerry Lambert, "the Duke," attempts to safeguard the cattle ranch of Vesta Philbrook from thieving neighbors, his work is appallingly handicapped because of Grace Kerr, one of the chief agitators, and a deadly enemy of Vesta's. A stirring tale of brave deeds, gun-play and a love that shines above all.
THE FLOCKMASTER OF POISON CREEK John Mackenzie trod the trail from Jasper to the great sheep country where fortunes were being made by the flock-masters. Shepherding was not a peaceful pursuit in those bygone days. Adventure met him at every turn—there is a girl of course—men fight their best fights for a woman—it is an epic of the sheeplands.
THE LAND OF LAST CHANCE Jim Timberlake and Capt. David Scott waited with restless thousands on the Oklahoma line for the signal to dash across the border. How the city of Victory arose overnight on the plains, how people savagely defended their claims against the "sooners;" how good men and bad played politics, makes a strong story of growth and American initiative.
TRAIL'S END Ascalon was the end of the trail for thirsty cowboys who gave vent to their pent-up feelings without restraint. Calvin Morgan was not concerned with its wickedness until Seth Craddock's malevolence directed itself against him. He did not emerge from the maelstrom until he had obliterated every vestige of lawlessness, and assured himself of the safety of a certain dark-eyed girl.

RICHARD CHATTERTON A fascinating story in which love and jealousy play strange tricks with women's souls.
A BACHELOR HUSBAND Can a woman love two men at the same time?
In its solving of this particular variety of triangle "A Bachelor Husband" will particularly interest, and strangely enough, without one shock to the most conventional minded.

THE MARRIAGE OF BARRY WICKLOW Here is a man and woman who, marrying for love, yet try to build their wedded life upon a gospel of hate for each other and yet win back to a greater love for each other in the end.
THE UPHILL ROAD The heroine of this story was a consort of thieves. The man was fine, clean, fresh from the West. It is a story of strength and passion.
WINDS OF THE WORLD Jill, a poor little typist, marries the great Henry Sturgess and inherits millions, but not happiness. Then at last—but we must leave that to Ruby M. Ayres to tell you as only she can.
THE SECOND HONEYMOON In this story the author has produced a book which no one who has loved or hopes to love can afford to miss. The story fairly leaps from climax to climax.
THE PHANTOM LOVER Have you not often heard of someone being in love with love rather than the person they believed the object of their affections? That was Esther! But she passes through the crisis into a deep and profound love.

THE WHITE FLAG. How a young girl, singlehanded, fought against the power of the Morelands who held the town of Ashwater in their grip.
HER FATHER'S DAUGHTER. This story is of California and tells of that charming girl, Linda Strong, otherwise known as "Her Father's Daughter."
A DAUGHTER OF THE LAND. Kate Bates, the heroine of this story, is a true "Daughter of the Land," and to read about her is truly inspiring.
MICHAEL O'HALLORAN. Michael is a quick-witted little Irish newsboy, living in Northern Indiana. He adopts a deserted little girl, a cripple. He also aspires to lead the entire rural community upward and onward.
LADDIE. This is a bright, cheery tale with the scenes laid in Indiana. The story is told by Little Sister, the youngest member of a large family, but it is concerned not so much with childish doings as with the love affairs of older members of the family.
THE HARVESTER. "The Harvester," is a man of the woods and fields, and is well worth knowing, but when the Girl comes to his "Medicine Woods," there begins a romance of the rarest idyllic quality.
FRECKLES. Freckles is a nameless waif when the tale opens, but the way in which he takes hold of life; the nature friendships he forms; and his love-story with "The Angel" are full of real sentiment.
A GIRL OF THE LIMBERLOST. The story of a girl of the Michigan woods; a buoyant, loveable type of the self-reliant American. Her philosophy is one of love and kindness toward all things; her hope is never dimmed.
AT THE FOOT OF THE RAINBOW. The scene of this charming love story is laid in Central Indiana. It is one of devoted friendship, and tender self-sacrificing love.
THE SONG OF THE CARDINAL. The love idyl of the Cardinal and his mate, told with rare delicacy and humor.

BOOTH TARKINGTON'S NOVELS
May be had wherever books are sold. Ask for Grosset & Dunlap's list.
SEVENTEEN. Illustrated by Arthur William Brown. No one but the creator of Penrod could have portrayed the immortal young people of this story. Its humor is irresistible and reminiscent of the time when the reader was Seventeen.
PENROD. Illustrated by Gordon Grant. This is a picture of a boy's heart, full of the lovable, humorous, tragic things which are locked secrets to most older folks. It is a finished, exquisite work.
PENROD AND SAM. Illustrated by Worth Brehm. Like "Penrod" and "Seventeen," this book contains some remarkable phases of real boyhood and some of the best stories of juvenile prankishness that have ever been written.
THE TURMOIL. Illustrated by C. E. Chambers. Bibbs Sheridan is a dreamy, imaginative youth, who revolts against his father's plans for him to be a servitor of big business. The love of a fine girl turns Bibb's life from failure to success.
THE GENTLEMAN FROM INDIANA. Frontispiece. A story of love and politics,—more especially a picture of a country editor's life in Indiana, but the charm of the book lies in the love interest.
THE FLIRT. Illustrated by Clarence F. Underwood. The "Flirt," the younger of two sisters, breaks one girl's engagement, drives one man to suicide, causes the murder of another, leads another to lose his fortune, and in the end, marries a stupid and unpromising suitor, leaving the really worthy one to marry her sister.

Transcriber's Notes:
1. In the courtroom scene on page 237, the original "She was not disloyal to Tess" has been changed to "She was not disloyal to Teola" since Tess is the speaker and she's keeping Teola's confidence about the child's mother. 2. The last chapter was originally numbered XI (11) though it is actually the final chapter, XLIII (43).
