Newspapers vs. Books.

People who are in the habit of run
ming through" newspapers will be sur
priSed when they learn what vast
amount OF printed matter is contained
in item, or in some of them. a Wes-
tern man has awakened thought in this
direction by a little calculation show
ing that a quadruple sheet in the New
York Heraid contains $50. 900 ems"
while an octave book of about 600
pages-Such rs the last work 10y Mark
Twain-conta' rs only $50. 900 'enIs"
This Que copy of the paper would.
therefore, make an octave of eighty
nine more pages than arc contained in
the book in question. while the price
OF the book is three and half dollars,
and of the journal four cents. And
what shall we say OF the fact, which
this enterprlsing deliver has discovered
that three copies of this quadruple

fourth more matter than the common
