You Are Judged by What You Read As Surely As by the Company You Keep

What you read makes itself manifest in what you say.

Be fair and just to yourself. You know that there is always more than one side to every question, and that unless you know all sides you are deceiving yourself and are apt to form unfair conclusions. Most Americans want to be fair-minded toward public men and public affairs.

Their intelligence, therefore, should not be satisfied with halftruths that often lead to hasty and regrettable decisions. They can know all the facts in the world's news even though time and expense forbid the reading of innumerable publications. How? By concentrating their reading. Nearly 300,000 thoughtful persons are now concentrating on

Affair of State

HE British Government with its back to the wall and organized labor at its throat; the monarch, on a very unstable seat, endeavoring to prevent the complete paralysis of national life which threatens in a universal strike; and the reins of control in the hands of a very clever Duchess and James Draper once haberdasher, now Prime Minister-these are some of the contending forces in Mr. Snaith's new romance.

T

a

HE story is told almost entirely in conversation, brilliant and arresting, and there is not lengthy description of person or scene in the book. This is a remarkable feat in itself and adds wonderfully to a theme essentially dramatic and eventful. The rise of James Draper from haberdasher to Prime Minister is a spectacular thing and the working of the tremendous forces of a moribund aristocracy bent on crushing him are described by Mr. Snaith in a way that makes one eager to know the outcome.
