The Last of the Chiefs
Illustrated in Colors, 12mo, Cloth, $1.50.
Two white boys join a caravan crossing the plains. After an ambuscade, from which they alone escape through the good will of an Indian guide, they establish themselves in the Montana hills, and live as trappers. When returning to civilization to sell their furs they are captured by Indians and witness the destruction of the tribes by Custer’s army and his allies.

HISTORY AND ADVENTURE
On the Trail of Washington
By Frederick Trevor Hill, author of “Lincoln the Lawyer,” “The Story of a Street,” etc. Six Color Pictures by Arthur E. Becher, many other Illustrations. Square 8vo. Ornamental Cloth Cover, $1.50 net.
Mr. Hill, who is known as an absolutely accurate, authentic writer of American history and biography, has planned this book to give in interesting, readable form, suitable for young boys and girls, an accurate account of George Washington, not as a dignified President of the United States, but first as a child in his home, then as a boy in his adventurous surveying expeditions, and finally as a young man fighting with and later commanding troops in the American Revolution.
