The Hunter Hercules
by Harry St. GeorgeIt was a beautiful scene. Not a cloud marred the vast blue dome of heaven.

The Strange Decoy
by Jos. E. BadgerOne glance would decide this. The soiled and blood-stained garments of the half-score figures gathered around the cheerful, crackling fire, in attitudes of careless ease, for the most part with pipe in mouth, the half-picked bones and fragments of meat scattered profusely here and there, telling of a hearty meal just passed by.

My reader need not fear a repetition or recapitulation of ..
Damned - The Intimate Story of a Girl
by E. S. DorranceThe most imperfect day known for ages in the Court of Gehenna was drawing to a close.

Each held eyes and ears intent, realizing far too well that his particular tenure of preferment hung upon the mood ..
