PARTNERS FOR FAIR

With illustrations by Faith Avery. $1.35 net

A story full of action, not untinged by pathos, of a boy and his faithful dog and their wanderings after the poor-house burns down. They have interesting experiences with a traveling circus; the boy is thrown from a moving train, and has a lively time with the Mexican Insurrectos, from whom he is rescued by our troops.


THE LUCK OF THE DUDLEY GRAHAMS

Illustrated by FRANCIS DAY. 300 pp., i2mo. $1.35 net.

A family story of city life. Lightened by humor and an airship.

"Among the very best of books for young folks. Appeals especially to girls."—Wisconsin List for Township Libraries.

"Promises to be perennially popular. A family of happy, healthy, inventive, bright children make the best of restricted conditions and prove themselves masters of circumstances."—Christian Register.

"Sparkles with cleverness and humor."—Brooklyn Eagle.


COCK-A-DOODLE HILL

A sequel to the above. Illustrated by Francis Day. 296 pp., I2mo. $1.35 net.

"Cockle-a-doodle Hill" is where the Dudley Graham family went to live when they left New York, and here Ernie started her chicken-farm, with one solitary fowl, "Hennerietta." The pictures of country scenes and the adventures and experiences of this household of young people are very life-like.

"No better book for young people than The Luck of the Dudley Grahams was offered last year. Cock-a-Doodle Hill is another of similar qualities."—Philadelphia Press.
