Even more thrilling
than "Tarzaii of the
Apes" is the sequel
just published.
Never hai such n character
come to you from the pages of
a book; never has the human
brain conceived so strange a
creation as Tarzan the ape man.
Combine the uncanny mystery
of Conaii Doyle, the vivid
imagination of H. G. Wells and
the thrill of Rider Haggard's
stories and you'll understand
why Tarzan has proved the
most sensational figure in re
cent fiction.

Partly because she loves success, and partly because she needs
the money, the heroine of this story accepts the tempting offer of a
publishing house to incorporate in a biography the indiscreet letters
of a diplomat and sets forth without restraint the full tejst of matters
that should never have been committed to writing. Only when the
manuript ft irrevocably in the publishers' hands and an international
sensation is threatened by its publication, does she meet the son of
the man whose reputation she has sold behind his back, and falls in
love with him at first sight.
A potent, compelling story strong in dramatic quality and
strong in moral virility.
