THE EAGLE SERIES

Principally Copyrights Elegant Colored Covers

PRICE, TEN CENTS

(Trade supplied exclusively by the American News Company and its branches.)

While the books in the New Eagle Series are undoubtedly better value, being bigger books, the stories offered to the public in this line must not be underestimated. There are over four hundred copyrighted books by famous authors, which cannot be had in any other line. No other publisher in the world has a line that contains so many different titles, nor can any publisher ever hope to secure books that will match those in the Eagle Series in quality.

This is the pioneer line of copyrighted ten-cent novels, and that it has struck popular fancy just right is proven by the fact that for ten years it has been the first choice of American readers. The only reason that we can afford to give such excellent reading at ten cents per copy, is that our unlimited capital and great organization enable us to manufacture books more cheaply and to sell more of them without expensive advertising, than any other publisher.

The Strength of Love

Of the things which man can do or make here below, by far the
most momentous, wonderful, and worthy, are the things we call
Books.

--_Carlyle._

All of which is very true. The most momentous, wonderful and worthy of all books are the S. & S. novels. Before their advent, students of literature were obliged to pay ten times their prices for books not nearly so good. The S. & S. book lines at ten and fifteen cents have been instrumental in placing before the reading public of America, first-class, full-size novels, by popular authors, at a price that even the most modest purse can afford.

The S. & S. novel performs a fine mission--it educates and entertains. Educates, by publishing hundreds of standard books by standard authors, and entertains by publishing clean, up-to-date stories of adventure, mystery and love.

Send for a complete catalogue. You will find it the most valuable index to current literature that ever fell into your hands. All of our books have tasteful, attractive colored covers, are printed from good clear type, and in every way are equal to the $1.50 kind, except that they are not bound between cloth covers.

10,000,000 Copies Sold

Mrs. Georgie Sheldon

is justly famous as a writer of American love stories of quality.

Her books are to be found in a million homes of the rich and poor alike, for this appeal to the heart knows no class--it’s universal.

Folks have said:--“I wonder what makes the Georgie Sheldon books so popular?” If you have never read any of her splendid novels, just select one at random. After reading it, you won’t ask any questions--you’ll know why ten million copies have been sold.

Send for catalogue of the S. & S. novels, arranged by author, which contains Mrs. Sheldon’s complete works. =PRICE 15c. PER COPY.=
