know of its great value.

Predicts Sale of Hutchinson's
Popular Nouei, eff Winter Comes,
VIII Exceed One Million CoDies

Over a million purchasers of a
single novel;
This is the phenomenal sales fig
ure which, responsible book jobbers
say. may be reached by A. S. NJ.
Hutchinson's novel eff Winter
Comes" now the best seller of the
English-speaking world, the first
installment of which appears on
page of this issue of The Argus.
At present "If Winter Comes" has
sold over 100000 copies and Is
holding daily sales record of over
1000 copies. Despite this showing,
skeptics are doubtful if the novel
of the English author can reach the
American record of QUO Vadis"
and David Harum." In various edi-
tons both of these novels have sold
over one million copies, but the
sales Of a generation ago were made
at lower prices and in the face of
less keen competition than at pres
emit.
In going over the records of best
sellers of other years, conservative
dealers say that IF Winter Comes"
and Richard CarvaT" will run a
close race. The publishers of
Churchill's novel report a total
sale of $4,000.
Twenty to 35 years ago the best
selling lists included "Quo Vadis"
by Henryk Sienkiewicz, David
Harum'' by Edward Wescott, Rich
ard Carvei' and The Crisis" by
Winston Churchill, Beside the
Bonnie Briar Bush" by Ian Maclar-
en-, When knighthood Was In
Flower" by Charles Major, THE
Right of Way" by Gilbert Parker.
1.-The Choir Invisible" by James
Lane Allen, "Eben Holden" by Irv-
ing Bachelor, ITO Have and to
Hold" by Mary Johnston, Mrs.
Wigs of the Cabbage Patch" by
Alice Hogan Rice, ~The Virginian,
by Owen Wister, and Janice Mere
dith," by Paul Leicester Ford.
OF these novelists only Winston
Churchill, Irving Bachelor and pos
sibly Gilbert Parker are writing
best sellers today. The others have
died, fallen in popular favor or
ceased to cater to the populace.
Another crop Of best sellers has
held forth during the past ten years.
These include Harold Bell Wright,
