not learn something useful and yet en-
tertaining-
Some of The Companion stories re-
fresh your knowledge of geography;
some tell you the mysteries of chemis-
try, some reveal the secrets of fores-
try and general farming. They cover
a wide range. They are chosen with

member of Companion family-stor-
les of vigorous action and stirring ad-
venture for boys, stories OF college
life and domestic vicissitudes for girls
stories that range all the way from
sheer drolley to deep seriousness for
men and women. There are no stories
quite like those in The Companion.

GIUSEPPE Fabbrini, Pianist.

One of the most genuinely talented
artists among the young living pianists
is Giuseppe Fabbrini, who was born in
Naples, Italy, in 1886, and has been a
resident of the Northwestern metrop-
oils for about two years. Since coming
to this country Signor Fabbrini has at
tanned reputation and position which
is remarkable, not only in his high
quality but in the rapidity of its
achievement as well.
Signor Fabbrini, who is known in
Italy as ''L'Aristocratico pianista,
was graduated from the Royal Conser-
vatory of Naples at the age of II. Not
only was he the youngest student ever
to be graduated from that famous in
stitution, but he was graduated with
the highest possible honors. He is a
pupil, chiefly, of Martucei, the distin-
guished Italian composer, pianist and
conductor. In spite of his youth he
gained wide European reputation be-
fore coming to this country, having
made concert tours in Italy, France,
Russia and Egypt and appearing as
soloist with such celebrated organiza-
tons as the Royal Orchestra of Italy
and the Imperial Orchestra of St.
| Petersburg, Russia.
/ The eloquent nature of Signor Fab
brini's interpretations is due, of course,
to his mate artistic intelligence and q
technique which is beyond any crit
cism; but it is enhanced, no doubt, By
the power of his own creative geniu:
which has found beautiful expression
in many compositions, including con
4 cert-stuck for piano and orchestra,
sonata for violin and piano. several soil
compositions for piano and number o
songs.

Tending to Violate Neutrality.

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 2l.-President
Wilson Thursday took up officially re,
ports that German agents have been un.
duly active in the United States. Later
lit became known that the department OF
justice would investigate all charges
tending to indicate violations of Amer.
lean neutrality.
The president discussed the question
with Attorney-General Gregory, asking
what steps had already been taken and
whether anything had been disclosed call
ing for action by the federal govern
ment. He was told that so far none of
the departments inquiries had developed
information to warrant prosecutions.
The attorney general said he had not
read carefully the charges published in
the New York World that German agents
with the approval Of the German govern
ment had fomented strikes in munitions
factories and engaged in other such ac-
Invites, but that as soon as the disclos-
ures now being made by that newspaper
were completed the facts alleged would
be Investigated by agents of his depart
ment.
Because Of mention Of the names of
officials Of the German embassy in the
published reports, President Wilson
probably will discuss the situation with
Secretary Lansing soon.
