mystery stories do get hold of us. and
A'A when we have the privilege of printing
really good one, like THE Strange Adven-
lures of John Smith in Paris which begins in
our next SUNDAY MAGAZINE, we are glad to
talk about it in loud tone Of voice. You may
know, perhaps. that never SO many highly in
telleCtual men of affairs, lawyers and captains
of industry particularly, have absorbing delight
in reading detective tales that taboo with
educators as we'll as those admitted to polite
society. And there are relatively few of the
latter.
THERE is nothing so hard to write as de-
tective story that is a really good one, as
many skilled author has found to his sorrow.
1t must be choke full of action and excitement
from the beginning, and the moment the mys-
terry is solved the interest flags. The difficulty
in creating the mystery in action is nothing
compared with that of holding attention while
explaining its intricacies.
JACQUES FUTRELLE. who wrote 1.-THE
lJ Strange Adventures of John Smith in
Paris" knows how. You remember his The
Thinking Machine" and his other fine stories?
Not only is this new serial choke full of Incl
dent, but the character drawing is really nota-
BILE and it is specially rich in hunor. You are
bound to like John Smith. and that goes long
way toward claiming ones interest.
