A judgment on the, pleadings for de~ fendants, Curtis Publishing Company and Curtis Circulation Company, was granted pursuant to defendants’ motion. The case is reviewed, therefore, the same as would be a judgment of dismissal entered following the sustaining of a general demurrer, and the allegations in plaintiffs’ complaint must be taken as true, and so taken the question is whether a cause of action has been stated.
