TheFrank MerriwellStories

Frank Merriwell Decoration.

No modern series of tales for boys and youth has met with anything like the cordial reception and popularity accorded to the Frank Merriwell Stories, published exclusively in Street & Smith’s Tip Top Weekly, a publication which has today a circulation larger than that of all similar publications combined.

There must be a reason for this, and there is. Frank Merriwell, as portrayed by the author, is a jolly, whole-souled, honest, courageous American lad, who appeals to the hearts of the boys.

He has no bad habits, and his manliness inculcates the idea that it is not necessary for a boy to indulge in petty vices to be a hero. Frank Merriwell’s example is a shining light for every ambitious lad to follow.

There is sometimes, with parents, a prejudice against all forms of boys’ literature in novel style.

We earnestly ask all parents to examine the Tip Top, confident that they will commend it to their boys as suitable and profitable to be read.

Issued Weekly. Sold by all newsdealers.
