HERE are Galsworthy's new novel, which even the conservative Atlantic Monthly pro claims "a great novel"; his searching appeal to American leadership and idealism in a volume of collected American addresses; a thoughtful book on the problems of recon struction by a brilliant young Continental labor leader; Francis Lynde's new novel of "big business"; Mr. Dooley "himsilf ag'in"; a psychic novel which Prof. Phelps has called "one of the best novels of the last few years"; and a French novelette which has gone through a score of editions in France: England looks to America Are the dead alive? NOWHERE has America's inspiring opportunity for leadership in the present hour been voiced more solemnly and hopefully than in. these addresses by GaNtjvorthy before various American audiences this Spring. "On America, now that the war is over, the destiny of civilization may hang for the next century," he urges. "The motto 'noblesse oblige' applies as much to democracy as ever it did to the old-time aristocrat. It applies with terrific vividness to America." sK?Vi Addresses in By John Galsworthy The girl who dreamed of.

He was ambitious and under a fancied obligation to Grillage, the power ful contractor who sends him out to his first job on the bridge at Coulee du Sac. Then, too, he was in love with Virginia Grillage. He discovers that they are skimping cement and steel re-enforcements, and his ambition, prompts him to wink at the practice until he is up to his neck in- the whole dirty business. Shall he turn against Grillage and his daughter or stick on the job and keep still? A dramatic event hastens his decision.

"His soul," comments one critic, "has caught the fire of the new idea," and the result is, according to the Atlantic Monthly, that "readers of any sect, or faith, or lack of it, must mark the margins of this book." ."A great novel," is the verdict of the press, headed by such authoritative voices as the Atlantic and The New York Times. "The most powerful arraignment of our social life that has yet been written," says the Philadelphia Ledger. i "Unfalteringly in this book," comments v the Nation, "Galsworthy sees beyond the moral gesture" to the moral fact. Hence, he has written pages not easily surpassed in their strong and earnest veracity." "Broad, understanding, charitable, human, Christlike," says the Independent. Wherever books pre sold, $1.60 $1.60 clearing of the. lot will be immediately ucgun, The Roberts bouse during the last twojenrs has served, by pennlsfeslon of .Miss Frances Roberts, as tho head quarters of the French committee of the llmergency Aid, Cut Cut prices arc alluring only on goods of known value. ' Without the previous establishment of standards, cut prices would not be seductive. An excessive cut price on advertised gbods of known value is a bait. A very wise and cynical fish would swallow the bait -but avoid the hook because, of course, there is a hook. i When a dealer sells for less than cost it is not for love that he does it. If gold were without vlue there would be no thieves. If advertising had not established for an article a wide-spread public recognition of standard value, there would be no bait in a "ruinous cut price."

But the impression, though subtly projected, is vivid and con vincing beyond anything we have seen." It is a story of that most subtle of all psychic phenomena, the reincarnation of personality after death, and Wm. Lyon Phelps called it in a recent front-page review in the New York Times, '.'One of the best novels of the Jast few years." The Chicago Post pronounces it "A masterpiece in a new field of literature." Read DBS FINGAL By Mrs. W. K.
