Christians. How he saves the fortress of Rhodes from the besieging
Turks, is later betrayed, captured and tortured by them in the hope that
he may be made to turn traitor and apostate, and his triumphant escape
from the hands of the Infidels--all these will delight the sturdy hearts
of the present-day American boy.

JOE, THE CIRCUS BOY AND ROSEMARY
These are two of Miss Allen's earliest and most successful stories,

people for these two particular tales.

MARJORY AT THE WILLOWS

little folk right down to this life of ours, in which she ranges

MARJORY'S DISCOVERY
This new addition to the popular MARJORY-JOE SERIES is as lovable and

entire summer, in which all of the characters of the previous
MARJORY-JOE stories participate, and their happy times are delightfully
depicted.
