NEW, BRILLIANT AND POPULAR TEN CENT NOVELS.

A DOLLAR BOOK FOR TEN CENTS!

THIS series comprises many of the choicest Works of Fiction and Romance yet offered to the public. They are descriptive of Border, Indian, Trapper and Hunter Life. Each book will be a complete novel of itself. Authors of first class reputation will furnish the tales which will far surpass in interest and graphic power any similar works.

  • No. 1. THE DEAD BOXER; or Secret Blow. It is exceedingly interesting to travel through this beautiful story, with such a descriptive writer, and to follow the hero of the tale through all his manly bearings.
  • No. 2. MILDRED; or Forbidden Love. There is not a single person, who once having taken up this book, will willingly lay it down until he has read every line. The plot is thrillingly interesting; the language full of fiery eloquence; the love passages will find a responsive answer in every loving heart.
  • No. 3. THE MIDNIGHT LAMP; or Life in the Empire City. This admirable romance far surpasses any similar work, in the rapidity with which incident follows incident and in the bold and strikingly painted characteristics of each actor.
  • No. 4. MARK MYRTLE; or the Maniac Hunter. The hero of this novel is one of the most interesting characters ever delineated, and his exploits surpass in boldness and brilliancy the most glowing.
  • No. 5. WOLF CAP, or Button Shooter's Last Tramp. Fearfully interesting are the strange scenes in this book; wild hunters, wild beasts, and wilder savages run riot in its exciting pages. No book of its class can begin to compare with it.
  • No. 6. THE RIVAL PLOTTERS; or the Patriots and Loyalists of '76. This novel is one of touching and thrilling interest, well calculated to enchain attention and to create remark. It gives a true picture of the patriots and loyalists of the war for Independence.
  • No. 7. IANTHE; or Slaver's Last Cruise. It will be hard to choose among sea and love stories, one more alive with the spirit of the waters and the heart than this really excellent production. Smugglers, wreckers and red hand pirates are the actors in this work.
  • No. 8. BOB ROCK; or Prairie Scout. This famous scout was the terror of the demon red-skins, with a heart of steel and an eye keen as a scalping-knife, he could out-ride, out-shoot and out-fight the greatest chiefs ever known.
  • No. 9. TENESEPA; or Friendly Sioux. The reader seems actually to hear the yell of the demons in their cruel work of massacre and to see their bloody scalping knives dripping with blood. Terrible adventures crimson every page.
  • No. 10. KING DICK; or Steel and Shoulder. This is just the book to please every one. The characters introduced, and the drama in which they are made to play, are alike singular and pleasing. To the lovers of what is stirring in person and incident this novel will afford great pleasure.
  • No. 11. THE WIZARD HUNTSMAN. This strange story embodies incident, character, pathos and beauty of delineation in rich abundance. Squatter and border life never had a finer exposition.
