RED FOX.  The Story of His Adventurous Career in the Ringwaak Wilds, and His Triumphs over the Enemies of His Kind.  With 50 illustrations, including frontispiece in color and cover design by Charles Livingston Bull.

A brilliant chapter in natural history.  Infinitely more wholesome reading than the average tale of sport, since it gives a glimpse of the hunt from the point of view of the hunted.  “True in substance but fascinating as fiction.  It will interest old and young, city-bound and free-footed, those who know animals and those who do not.”—­Chicago Record-Herald.

FAMOUS COPYRIGHT BOOKS IN POPULAR PRICED EDITIONS

NEDRA, by George Barr McCutcheon, with color frontispiece, and other illustrations by Harrison Fisher.

The story of an elopement of a young couple from Chicago, who decide to go to London, travelling as brother and sister.  Their difficulties commence in New York and become greatly exaggerated when they are shipwrecked in mid-ocean.  The hero finds himself stranded on the island of Nedra with another girl, whom he has rescued by mistake.  The story gives an account of their finding some of the other passengers, and the circumstances which resulted from the strange mix-up.

POWER LOT, by Sarah P. McLean Greene.  Illustrated.

The story of the reformation of a man and his restoration to self-respect through the power of honest labor, the exercise of honest independence, and the aid of clean, healthy, out-of-door life and surroundings.  The characters take hold of the heart and win sympathy.  The dear old story has never been more lovingly and artistically told.

MY MAMIE ROSE.  The History of My Regeneration, by Owen Kildare.  Illustrated.

This autobiography is a powerful book of love and sociology.  Reads like the strangest fiction.  Is the strongest truth and deals with the story of a man’s redemption through a woman’s love and devotion.

JOHN BURT, by Frederick Upham Adams, with illustrations.

John Burt, a New England lad, goes West to seek his fortune and finds it in gold mining.  He becomes one of the financial factors and pitilessly crushes his enemies.  The story of the Stock Exchange manipulations was never more vividly and engrossingly told.  A love story runs through the book, and is handled with infinite skill.

THE HEART LINE, by Gelett Burgess, with halftone illustrations by Lester Ralph, and inlay cover in colors.

A great dramatic story of the city that was.  A story of Bohemian life in San Francisco, before the disaster, presented with mirror-like accuracy.  Compressed into it are all the sparkle, all the gayety, all the wild, whirling life of the glad, mad, bad, and most delightful city of the Golden Gate.
