ADVENTURE —————_— HOOT TEC TEEE qm _—$—— TINTON OCA LULL TT the new magazine, covers a field that stretches from our daily footsteps not only back into all time, but broadly into all the world. fs - It is for both men and women. It has no puritan- ical standards, but it will be kept relentlessly clean. { Love is a natural theme, but there will be no salacious \ sex appeal. )) Nor is there romance in emotions torn to lifeless shreds by infinite analysis, or in the sickly ghost sensa- tions of the boudoir. ‘True romance lies in the real, not the artificial. It may be buxom, but never morbid; grimy, but neither dirty nor fluffy. ‘Romance wishes to leave its readers happier than it found them. Yet tragedy is not barred, for tragedy may be uplifting, not depressing: Problems are not barred, but they must be the problems of romance itself, not the dreary ones that drag us back into the routine we seek to forget between the covers of a magazine. Above all, good stories; those by famous authors side by side with stories having no endorsement but their own merit. If such a monthly magazine sounds to you different, get the current issue and read the new serial by Joseph Conrad.
