1 JILL THE RECKLESS

Jill had money. Jill was engaged to be married to Sir Derek Underhill. Suddenly Jill becomes penniless, and she is no longer engaged! It is a comedy-drama with a delightful heroine, and some very amusing people. By P. G. Wodehouse.

2 FEAR

The blue pencil of the Censor was too busy during the War to allow a realist such as Patrick MacGill a chance of exposing the Truth.

Unconstrained by the thought of blue pencils, Patrick MacGill, our greatest realist, has been able to write about war as war actually is. It is a terrible picture he presents; but none the less a picture that should be seen.

3 THE MAZAROFF MURDER

By J. S. Fletcher, author of The Markenmore Mystery. Who killed Mr. Mazaroff? Why did it become known throughout three continents as "The Mazaroff Affair"? There is no finer writer of a detective novel than J. S. Fletcher. Here is a real mystery story.

4 THE SMUGGLED MASTERPIECE

Edgar Jepson's comedy-novel opens with a young man swimming out to a French fishing smack to tow ashore a mysterious cylinder. From that moment the action of the story becomes breathless, is the comedy irresistible. Uniform with The Whiskered Footman.

5 THE RETURN OF BLUE PETE

Blue Pete, half-breed, cowboy-rustler-detective, did not die after all, but lived to enjoy many thrilling adventures with his little horse, Whiskers. By Luke Allan, author of Blue Pete: Half-Breed.
