"THE CRUISE OF THE CANOE CLUB,"

By W. L. ALDEN,

Author of "The Moral Pirates," "Cruise of the 'Ghost,'" etc.

In the next number of Young People our readers will have a chance to renew the acquaintance of the four lads whose adventures they followed so eagerly in Mr. Alden's former stories. This time the boys have become the fortunate possessors of four canoes, in which they make a cruise through some of the rivers and lakes of Canada. Just in proportion as a canoe excels a row-boat or a sail-boat in its easy motion, its delightful swiftness, and its liability to capsize, so do the experiences and adventures of the boys on this cruise exceed those of the cruises that have preceded it in excitement, picturesqueness, and general interest. Mr. Alden's stories for young readers are full of the genial wit and clever handling of amusing situations that have won him such a brilliant reputation as a humorist.
