Is Your Family Reading
“Worth While”?
So much of current reading is
merely entertaining at best that
the question naturally arises, Is it
worth while? Your sons and dau
ghters are bound to read some
thing. They hunger for stories
which take them into the other
half of the world-the world of ad
venture, of valor, of fortune-mak
ing. The problem is to give them
such reading without putting inH
their hands the literature that b
eitlier silly or d moralizing. 1 <
editor of the Youth’s Companion
believe that a periodical can b<
made entertain P gaud vet ‘-worth
while,” and The Companion is con
ducted on that theory. And that
is one reason why more than hull
a million American families read'
it. The paper is safe, hut not dull
Its tales of adventure illustrate
the advantug s ol fortitude and
self-reliance. Its stories of char
acter lay stress on the truth that
right conduct is never a mistake
Every new subscriber will find
it of special advantage to send
once the $1.75 for the new 1910
volume. Not only does he get the
beautiful “Venetian” Calendar for
1910, lithographed in thirteen col
