Mr. Cannan’s new novel is a revelation in the art of character delineation. It is the story of a young man in search of himself and his place in the scheme of things. A search in which his days are filled with intimate experiences with life in all its kaleidoscopic coloring and variation. It is the kind of book one likes to read slowly, for every page is full of charm, insight and wisdom. “A fine imaginative insight and an honest facing of reality and its problems combine to give unusual distinction to “Young Earnest.”—The Chicago Evening Post. “Full of admirable observation, clearness of vision, subtle interpretation. A work women should read, for they will learn much about the other sex, reputed easy to understand.”—The English Review. “Mr. Cannan is a master in the art of dissecting human emotion.”—The New York Times. $1.35 Net D. APPLETON & COMPANY, Publishers, NEW YORK The Promise of A Better Tire Day Goodyear Fortified Tires came, years ago, to promise men a better tire day. And that promise was fulfilled. They made Goodyear the largest-selling tire in the world, a place it has held ever since. Last year men bought 1,479,883—about one for each car in use. Not Magical Don’t expect in the Goodyear a magical tire. It is not exempt from mishap and misuse. It won top place because it averaged best. It did that because, in five great ways, it excels every other tire. It combats in five ways, exclusive to Goodyear, these six major troubles— Rim-Cuts Blowouts Loose Treads Insecurity Punctures Skidding One way—our “On-Air” cure—costs us $450,000 yearly. One comes through forming in each tire hundreds of large rubber rivets. One compels us to vulcanize in each tire base 126 braided piano wires. One comes through our double-thick All-Weather tread, with its sharp, tough, resistless grips. These things together mean a super-tire. Lower Prices Yet these costly-built tires, in the past two years, have been thrice reduced in price. Our last reduction—on February 1st—brings the two-year total to 45%. Never has a tire given so much for the money as Fortified Tires do now. We ask you, for your own sake, to prove it. Any dealer will supply you.
