THE FEBRUARY
AnERErAN MAGAZlNE.

The February American Magazine
contains many excellent short stories
and constructive articles on problems
of general interest. In "What It Cost
Me To Become a Prominent Man, " a
U. S. Congressman tells how much
better off he was on a small salary in
private life than after he had become
a local celebrity with a good poll
teal position in Washington. How to
grasp the main business chance is
described in a practical article by
Hugh S. Fullerton who gives some
unusual early experiences Of success
full Americans in way that makes
them capable of general application.
Albert w. Atwood tells of war made
Americans who have Just arrived. An
article by Ray Stannard Baker des-
cribes a curious objective manner Of
teaching morals to children that is
bringing remarkable results. All of
these articles are unusual, timely and
interesting.
Dana Bmnet's story "The Thous-
and Dollar Check" deals in an origi-
nal manner with matter-of-fact New
Workers. There are also stories by
Bertha A. Rich, Marion Sherrard and
Cullen A. Cain. Olive Higgins Prouty
continues her splendid serial, "The
Fifth Wheel" the account of the re-
volt of girl trained for marriage,
and what she did with her life.
For the series of practical health ar
ticles Dr. Arthur r. Reynolds, form
er Health Commissioner of Chicago
discusses the subject Of badness and
its cause. For the series of articles
on the glories of the separate states
OF the union, u. S. Senator John
Sharp Williams of Mississippi tells
why his constituents are like the
Beers and why the state OF MISSISSIPPI
pi Is free from paupers and million
aires Great acting is dying, says
Walter Prichard Eaton, the maya
zines dramatic reporter.
In "The Family's Money" 'Tnter-
esting People, and the department
on Habits" there is a large quantity
of interesting material and the maya
zine as a whole is excellent.
