It's Diamond Cut
Diamond Next as
Our New Story
BY JANE BUNKER.

Our new serial Is an unusual mys
terry story that defies picking to pieces;
1t has a time-lock on 1t which can't be
opened by simply dipping into the
story here and there and waiting for
the last chapter. The combination
goes from chapter one to fms, and
you're kept on tiptoe with excitement
all the way; that is. when you're not
doubled up by the fun of 1t all.
Below are what some OF the leading
reviewers have said OF IT.:
diamond Cut Diamond" is verit-
able Arabian Nights entertainment In
a modern setting with an abundance Of
humor and delightful little love story
on the side.-Washingto Evening Star.
Not the least original feature of the
plot is the Introduction of a reporter
who is not wiser than Sherlock Holmes
and stronger than Sandow.-The Ma
ton, New York City.
The story Is well constructed and
moves rapidly along from one exciting
adventure to another. The author has
a fresh. unconventional style, and the
story, "Diamond Cut Diamond" con-
tains no little of the spice of humor.-
The Syracuse Herald.
From beginning to end the story
holds the readers interest closely and
compels reading. The style itself, light
and occasionally fllppant, is of the
galloping style that hurries the reader
along from chapter to chapter and
makes him reluctant to lay the story
aside.-The Boston Times.
Those who enjoy good detective and
unusual stories will be deeply inter
ested in "Diamond Cut Diamond
The Newark Evening Star.
diamond Cut Diamond" is a genu-
inely humorous detective story, con
tanning all the elements Of mystery.
danger, cunning, and startling adven-
lures that make one want to stay right
ION the job" to see how 1t will really
turn out.-Philadelphia Despatch.
"Diamond Cut Diamond" is the sort
of story that you can't wait to turn
the rages. Something exciting is sure
to happen on the next page.--Chicago
Tribune.
There is an INN cnse amount or mys-
terry and no sooner is one tangled sit
uation cleared up than another one
equally or even more mysterious con-
fronts the readers of Diamond Gu.
Diamond" d."-Chicngo Daily News.
1t is easy to understand that d
woman novelist wrote this novel be
cause the latter is so elusive. interest
ing and feminine in its scope. The title
is well chosen and the plot so gallop-
ing that the readers attention is
riveted.-Portland Oregonian.
The first installment of this story
appears inthe next weeks issue of
