Part 69

"To-morrow we'll write a jolly note to Isabel," he affirmed contentedly. "She doesn't need to worry on her honeymoon, poor kid; she has squared up. There doesn't seem to be any need for anyone to worry, ever, while they're trying to keep straight, since the scheme is a Square Deal, you know."

The two older men exchanged a glance.

"I guess some of us need more than a square deal, Corwin B.," his father pronounced. "But it's all right; we get that, too."

THE END.

MYSTERY AND ACTION A'PLENTY

IN HER OWN RIGHT

By JOHN REED SCOTT

Author of "The Impostor," "The Colonel of the Red Huzzars," "The Woman in Question," "The Princess Dehra," etc.

Three colored illustrations By CLARENCE F. UNDERWOOD 12mo. Decorated Cloth, $1.25 net.

In this new novel Mr. Scott returns to modern times, where he is as much at home as when writing of imaginary kingdoms or the days of powder and patches. Mr. Scott's last novel, "The Impostor," had Annapolis in 1776 as its locale, but he shows his versatility by centering the important events of this romance in and around Annapolis of today.

There are mystery and action a-plenty, and a charming love interest adds greatly to an already brilliant and exciting narrative.

CRITICAL OPINIONS

"A brisk and cleanly tale."--Smart Set.

"A sparkling, appealing novel of today."--Portland Oregonian.

"Enjoys the exceptional merit of being a stirring treasure tale kept within the bounds of likelihood."--San Francisco Chronicle.

"A charming and captivating romance filled with action from the opening to the close, so fascinating is the story wrought."--Pittsburgh Post.

"Just such a dashing tale of love and adventure as habitual fiction readers have learned to expect from Mr. Scott. A well told tale with relieving touches of dry humor and a climax unusual and strong."--Chicago Record Herald.

=Dawn of the Morning=

Illustrated in color by ANNA WHELAN BETTS. Decorated cloth. 12mo. $1.25 net.

Like her most successful stories, "Marcia Schuyler" and "Phoebe Deane," Mrs. Lutz's new novel is set in New York State about 1826--quaint old days of poke bonnets and full skirts.

It is a refreshingly sweet and charming story and the author has created in Dawn, a gentle appealing heroine, whose tangled romance only serves to make more happy the beautiful ending when all the threads of Dawn's life are straightened out.

=Phoebe Deane=

Frontispiece in color and five illustrations from paintings by E.L. HENRY, N.A. 12mo. Cloth, with medallion, $1.50.

Few present-day books are so thoroughly wholesome, fresh and charming as this quiet, old-fashioned romance, as refreshingly sweet as the name of its heroine.
