Fortunately there are no customs officials at the port of Woosung, and our chartered steamer puffed directly to the side of the _Seagull_ and loaded us and our treasure on our own craft.
We received a joyful welcome from my father and the officers and crew, you may be sure, and before we had told all of our story we were well out at sea and were homeward bound.
I have often wondered if our visits to the Ancestral Halls of the House of Kai have ever been discovered, or the treasure we abstracted at the instance of the Prince ever missed.
But from the far-away Province of Kwang-Kai-Nong to the deck of the wandering _Seagull_ is a far cry, and it is unlikely we shall ever know what happened in Kai-Nong after our departure.
Since that time we "Boy Fortune Hunters" have been through many other experiences, not all rewarded with equal profit, but, I can assure you, quite as thrilling; and some of these I purpose to relate at another time. Some of our earlier adventures, such as those with which we entertained the dying Prince Kai, may be read in "The Boy Fortune Hunters in Alaska," "The Boy Fortune Hunters in Panama," and "The Boy Fortune Hunters in Egypt."
The Airship Boys Series _By_ H. L. SAYLER
This is one of the most fascinating, besides being one of the most timely and technically accurate series of boys' books yet published. Mr. Sayler is not only first, but, we think, without a rival in this new field of boys' literature which offers so much in the way of invention, exploration and adventure. The first two volumes are:
The Airship Boys _or, The Quest of the Aztec Treasure_ AND The Airship Boys Adrift _or, Saved by an Aeroplane_
Each, fully illustrated, with handsome cover and striking wrapper in colors, $1.00
Aunt Jane's Nieces Aunt Jane's Nieces Abroad Aunt Jane's Nieces at Millville Aunt Jane's Nieces at Work
"Aunt Jane's Nieces" chronicles the real doings of real girls in a most interesting manner. "Aunt Jane's Nieces Abroad" tells of a delightfully adventurous trip through Europe, and the third volume describes their summer holiday on a farm "at Millville." In the last story the "Nieces" are shown at work in the political arena.
