Cutcliffe Hyne's
Great Novel,
Kate Meredith,
FinanCier,
Will begin tomorrow in
The
Saturday
Star.

South Africa has been done
to death. both in fiction and in
historical and travel books
North Africa's countless
Egyptian romances date back
to Plutarch's day. But it re-
manned for Cutcliffe Hyne to
lift the impenetrable mystery
veil that has, through all time,
brooded over West Africa. No
novelist heretofore has used it
as the scene of romance.
Principally because no novel
ist except Mr.. Cutcliffe Hyne
ever dared live there or
to study the place - for
West Africa has an I'M
pleasant way of killing for
eigners out of hand. Brave
beyond ordinary must be the
man who dare face its awful
climate, its lurking fevers, the
cunning, the treachery of
its savages, the death that
crouches ever in it's jungles.
This great novel will be issued
throughout January in The
Saturday and Sunday Star.
