  SIX STAR RANCH

  Another success by the author of the wonderful GLAD Books

  "Pollyanna: The GLAD Book" "Pollyanna Grows Up: The Second GLAD Book"

  With frontispiece in full color from a painting by R. FarringtonElwell and six spirited drawings by Frank J. Murch. Bound uniform withthe POLLYANNA books in silk cloth, with a corresponding color jacket,net $1.25; carriage paid $1.40

  The year we published POLLYANNA, THE GLAD BOOK, we published anotherbook by the same author, but as it is contrary to our policy to issuetwo books by one writer in a year, we published the second book underthe pseudonym "Eleanor Stuart."

  As we are not going to publish a new book of Mrs. Porter's this year,we have decided to announce the publication of SIX STAR RANCH underthe name of its real author. The success of her previous books ispractically unparalleled in the history of American publishing,POLLYANNA: THE GLAD BOOK, having already sold 300,000 copies--anaverage of more than 100,000 copies for three consecutive years--andPOLLYANNA GROWS UP: THE SECOND GLAD BOOK, having sold nearly 150,000copies in nine months.

  SIX STAR RANCH is a charming story, in the author's best vein, of adear little Texas girl, who plays "the glad game" made famous byPOLLYANNA, and plays it with a charm which will put her on the samepinnacle, side by side with POLLYANNA.
