  A CARNIVAL OF ACTION

  ADVENTURE LIBRARY

  Splendid, Interesting, Big Stories

  For the present the Adventure Library will be devoted to the publicationof stories by William Wallace Cook.

  The fact that one man wrote all of these stories in no way detracts fromtheir interest, as they are all very different in plot and locality.

  For example, the action in one story takes place in "The Land of LittleRain;" another deals with adventure on the high seas; another is a goodrailroad story; others are splendid Western stories; and some aremystery stories. All of them, however, are stories of vigorous adventuredrawn true to life, which gives them the thrill that all really goodfiction should have.
