a delightful close.
=DESERT GOLD.=
Illustrated by Douglas Duer.
Another fascinating story of the Mexican border. Two men, lost in the
desert, discover gold when, overcome by weakness, they can go no
farther. The rest of the story describes the recent uprising along the
border, and ends with the finding of the gold which the two
prospectors had willed to the girl who is the story's heroine.

Illustrated by Douglas Duer.
A picturesque romance of Utah of some forty years ago when Mormon

owner, we are permitted to see the methods employed by the invisible
hand of the Mormon Church to break her will.

Illustrated with photograph reproductions.

final race for life, make up this never-to-be-forgotten story.
