WORE ee x NM A © . ri? ¥ : great; can’t we have some more stories by the same author? Have just finished “The Un- tamed ”’; it was good, but the ending was a trifle disappointing. I am now reading “After His Own Heart” and “The Crimson Alibi”; they both promise to be good. Hoping you keep the. good work up, DorotHy HALL. Commerce, Oklahoma. I have been reading the Axtt-Story WEEKLY and The Argosy for-almost two years. I think they are the best magazines published. I have read all of E. R. Burroughs’s books and con- tinued stories. I think that “H. R. H. the Rider ”’ is fine. I sure would like to see some more of the Tarzan stories. ‘“ The Untamed,’ by Max Brand, is one of the best continued stories I have ever read. Mr, Burroughs will have to go some to the best of Soa writers. Who wrote “ Thuvia, Maid of Mars,” and what issues were they in, and what will it cost to get them from you? I will not wish you success, because I know you will have success. Leo Furry. Worcester, Massachusetts. Note: ‘“Thuvia, Maid of Mars,’ by Edgar Rice Burroughs (ALL-Story WEEKLY, April 8 to 22, 1916), is the fourth of the Martian series. We can supply the three numbers containing it for twenty cents each. I enclose ten cents, for which please send me the issue of the Art-Story WrrExty for Novem- ber 16. If you cannot supply this issue, please tell me where I can get it. It contained the closing chapters of “ White Tigers,” in which I am very much interested. I ordered this issue some 7 ' \ rr i ‘as i ty iK La yi hh phe as tu Lye aa WARY Re ha WY MAS idee Aa, A, NES) vat time ago through a news-dealer, but he seemed unable to get it.
