What matters, however, since where ignorance is bliss it
is folly to be wise?
Jean Pylotte: His art died with him, alas! For in the ruins of the
diamond plant there could be found no evidence sufficient to reveal his
great secret.
Surely it had opened the way to a great swindle, the possibilities of
which can hardly be conceived. But, fortunately, in the way of it had

NICK CARTER STORIES
New Magnet Library
PRICE, FIFTEEN CENTS
_Not a Dull Book in This List_
Nick Carter stands for an interesting detective story. The fact that the
books in this line are so uniformly good is entirely due to the work of
a specialist. The man who wrote these stories produced no other type of
fiction. His mind was concentrated upon the creation of new plots and
situations in which his hero emerged triumphantly from all sorts of
trouble, and landed the criminal just where he should be--behind the
bars.
The author of these stories knew more about writing detective stories
than any other single person.
Following is a list of the best Nick Carter stories. They have been
selected with extreme care, and we unhesitatingly recommend each of them
as being fully as interesting as any detective story between cloth
covers which sells at ten times the price.
