_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

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.
