'4 Photoplay Magazine — Advertising Section "Hello. Hnck" CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING n h n nn n n n^nn n n n n r^ n n rtn;n'nnn-nri n RECALL that ^ohlen day when you first read " Huck Fiiui"? How your mother *■ said, "For goodness' sake, stop laughing aloud over tiiat book. Vou sound sosilly." Hut you couldn't stop laughing. Today when you read '" Huckleberry Finn" you will not laugh so much. You will chuckle often, but you will also want to weep. The deep humanity of it — the pathos, that you never saw as a boy, will appeal to you now. \(ni were too busy laughing to notice the limpid purity of the inaster'-i stvle. MARK TWAIN When Mark I'wain first wrote ''Huckleberry Finn'* this land was swept with a gale of laughter. When he wrote '*'I'he Innocents Abroad*' even Europe laughed at it itself. Bui one day there appeared a new book from his pen. so fpiriiual, so (rue, so tnfty, thai those who did know him well were amazed, "joan of Arc" was (he work of a poc( a historian — a seer. Mark Twain was all of ihcsc. His was not the tieht laughter of a moment's fun, but the whimsical humor ihai made the tragcdv of life more bearable. A Big Human Soul Perhaps >ou think >ou have read a good deal of Mark Twain. Arc you sure ? Have you read all the short stories? Have >ou read all the brilliant fiehiing essays? — all the humorous ones and the historical ones ? Think of ii 2.^ volumes filled with the laughter and Ihc tears and the fighting that made Mark Twain so wonderful! He was a bountiful giver of joy and humor. He was yet much more, for. while he laug'ied with the world, his lonely spirit struggled with the sadness of human life, and sought to find the key. Beneath the laughter is a big human soul, a big philospber. Low Price Sale Must Stop Mark Twain wanted every one in America lo own a set of his books. So one of the last things he asked was that we make a set at so low a price that every one might own it. So wc have made this SCI. And up to now wc have been able to sell it at this low price. Rising costs make it impossible to continue the sale of Mark Twain at a low price. New editions will cost very much more than this Author's National Edition. But now the price must go up. You must act at once. You must sign and mail the coupon now. If you want a set at a popular price, do not delay. This edition will soon be withdrawn, and then you will pay considerably more for your Mark Twain. The last of the edition is in sight. There will never again be 'a set of \*ark Twain at the present price. Send the coupon only — no money. Harper & Brothers Franklin Square.
