THE CAR DEN MACAZINE 



3^ 



One Million Copies 



of Mrs. Stratton-Porter's nature romances that have 

 been sold during the past few years have made her 

 work familiar to readers all over the United States, 

 and have given her an undisputed position at the 

 head of the cult of nature lovers and nature writers. 



Known chiefly as a writer of absorbing fiction — 

 as the author of "Freckles," "A Girl of the Limber- 

 lost," "The Harvester," etc. — her fame rests even 

 more securely on her intimate knowledge of nature. 



It is therefore with pride that we announce the 

 publication of a magazine article by Mrs. Porter, 

 giving the results of her intimate studies of the 

 moths of Limberlost Swamp — the winged jewels that nature brings 

 forth on soft June nights for our brief admiration. It is splen- 

 didly illustrated from photographs and color studies by the author.
