“The Frozen Pirate.”

Russell, author of ‘‘ Lady Maud,” *'A uld Lang Syne,” ‘* Wreck of the Grosvenor,’

ete., just published by W. Bryce, Toronto. The scene of this latest story is laid in the Antartic regions. Terrible as are the features of the Arctic solitudes, those of an Antartic voyage are much more appalling. The southern continent is isolated. In these desolate regions Russell's castaway sailor finds himself—alone! No living being is within hundreds of miles of him. As he climbs the glittering ice coast to find, if possible. its extent, his boat—the only link between him a, civilization—drifts away. The appalling discovery he makes as he crosses the ice field, and the grim silent | companionship he has from that time

forward, is told with all Clark Russell's’ to mastery of language. The novel is thrill- ing, and fixes attention from the beginning.

This is the latest novel by W. Clark |
