~ owner, and he thinks, for one thing,
Of his cars performance.
He does that because he knows that his
four-cylinder car not only equals, but
actually out-performS other types on the
essential points.
He is rarely tempted by cars with more
than four cylinders. He has seen them
perform; and he believes his Hupmobile
does BETTER
Comfort also means service to the Hup-
mobile owner. For him, the word service
translates itself into service from the car,
rather than from the service station.
Next he thinks Of economy He runs his
car at an unusually low outlay
He gets really exceptional mileage on
gasoline and oil. The same applies to his
tires And the item of repair parts and
labor figures hardly at ALL Does comfort
mean these things to you?

or any one of its hundred enterprises,

that army has been too busy to talk much

raj that while there is q great deal about
dougtnuts and coffee, pies and cake, huts

also a great deal about the religious as

themselves have such a record of the
hardest kind of physical labor as is set
down by Commander Booth end Mrs. Hill.
1t is not the least of the compliments paid
to this other army that an American rri-
vate on catching sight of the Salvation

We get to hell to try TO save US"
But, after all, in reading these pages it
is the doughnuts and the pies that stick

The evident pleasure awakened by that re-

paid nine shillings for Wells's Joan
and Peter and was deeply distressed
for weeks at having done so, not at
all because she didn't enjoy the book,
simply because it seemed to her a
quite riotous extravaganza. AT the
same time she told him that the eve
ming before she had been to a revue
which she had found entirely worth
less; on this worthless entertainment
she must have spent at least two
pounds tickets, chocolates, taxis and
fowers), but that seemed to her
quite ordinary and natural expendi-
ture.
Only week or two ago / was talk
ing to zone of the most famous
authors" as the gentleman in the
Daily Sketch would say, and he con-
fded to me with joy that his latest
novel had sold twenty thousand
copies. That is, for a really good
novel, with US a fine sale. But
twenty thousand! Consider it! In
London alone there are four million
people-four million people, two
million at least of whom spend ten
and sixpence a week on the theatre.
No, it is an absurd position. 1 am not
expecting that the latest specimen of
eccentric novel written entirely in
green ink and suspensive pots should
sell 100000 copies, but there is no
reason at all why The Roll Call should
not, why The Tree of Heaven should
not, or, for instance, so entirely de-
lightful a work as E. V. Lucas's
Listeners Lure. These books are not
difficult, they are not indecent; above
all, they are never dull. I repeat that
the present position is absurd.
And although a certain number of
