A Literarr Rerolution ChalIenge

The old-line publishers have, very naturally, not been well pleased with the now famous enterprise, "The Lit erary Revolution" and in deprecia- ton of it's character have laid special stress upon the claim that in cheapen ing books so vastly it is against the interests of American authors. The Revolution boldly meets this assertion by statements as follows: 1st. That they are already paying 70 American authors more money than any other publishing house that IS less than twenty five years established. 2d. That American authors rarely receive from publishers a copyright exceeding 10 per cent upon the retail price ot their books actually sold. Sd. That at least one-half, and probably more nearly three-fourths of the books pub hshed by American authors have been published at the authors expense, the publishers furnishing no money, and paying no copyright, but themselves receiving large percentage upon sales made. 4th. That they propose hereafter 10 pay 10 American authors for acceptable manuscripts copyright of Is per cent, instead of 10 per cent, and they claim that their low prices, snd immense sales resulting Ihsrefron are far more in ihe interest of authors Ihan much larger copyrights on the commonly limited number of sales One thousand books, profit Sl co each, equals $l 900. One million hoOks Vrpff ,ue cent earh conn lS S10,OO0.
 As an example of an American copy righ; book, they issue, in an exceed ingly handsome form, .hs famous pO- etIca., historical and satirical Ameri. can classic, "M'Fingal, an Epic Poem" by John TrumbulI, with very full annoiations by the celebrated his torian Benson J. Losing. IL. D. This poem Is almost ss much a part of American history az the battle of Bun ker Hill itself, and Dr. Losing has greatly increased both it's interest and its intrinsic value by his historical comments and illustrations. This book was published few years ago by one of the old publishing houses al the price of S2. co per copy, and had only very limited sale. The publishers claim that the reception of their new edition guarantees sale of at least 50,0O0, or even more probably 100, 000 copies; and MT. Losing, will, of course, reap @ handsome reward, even from the small royalty upon the low price. American Book Exchange, Publishers, New York City

1rhr women nre Not ,Ia.or 5.

The question Is often asked. why
 cannot women be Free Msson,y A
 bald headed Nevada orator living
 among tAc sage brush, fnr away from
 all wOmankiLd, ventures tu answer it
 as toilOas: Women sOmetimes
 complain that they are not permitted
 to ent-r the lodges and work with lhe
 craft in ttGir .GbOfs, and leaiu aii
 there js 10 be learned In this iusltG-
 ton. We will. explain the reason.
 We learn that before the Almighty
 had finished h.s work he was iu dUutt
 about creating Eve. Tue creation of
 the living and creeping thing had
 been accomplished, and the Almighty
 had made Adam, who was tbe first
 Mason, and created for him the finest lodge in the world, and called Para
 dIss No. ]. He caused all the beasts
 of .he field and fowls of the ar Go
 pass before Adam, for him lO name them, which was 70 piece oi work Ac had to do alone, that no confusion
 might thereafter arise from Eve, who he knew would make trouble if -he was allowed tO participate in iJ, It he created her beforehand. Adam being fatigued with his first task, fell asleep ard when he awOke found Eve in Inc l lodge with him. Adam beng Senior ! Warden. placed Eve ss tLe pillar 0. beauty iu the south, and they rcceiv- [ ed their instruction from -ue Crane ! Master in the east, which, when In- , i-hsd, she immediately called JEe craft from labor Co retreshmeui. Iu- ] stead of attending Co the duties Oi her | office 6s che ought, she left her s'a- | tiou. violated her obligation and .ti l in an expelled Mason, who had u. ! business there, and went around with i him, leaving Adam to look after tL, | jewels. This fellow had been eXpeiI-
 cd from the Grand Lodge, with >cv-
 eraI others some time before. Find ! ing that Eve was no longer trust worthy, and that she had cau>ed l Adam to neglec. his duty, and had
 let one in whom he had expelled, the | Grand Master closed the lodge and turned them out, setting fa';hiu ! Tyler tO guard the door with a liam ing sword. Adam repenied ot Lr folly. went 10 work like man and g , good Mason, in order to get reinStGte, again. Not SO with Eve. Sine eo angry about it and commenced -as- l ing Cain. Adam, on account oi LH reformation was permitted tO e,taO ! fish lodges and work in the degrees
 and while Eve was allowed to join ! him in his work of charity outside,
 she was never sgaln permitted 2,

THE American Book Exchange. 7s

THE American Book Exchange, 764 Broadway, New York, have created a complete revolution in the book trade, By means of improved, steam type setting machines they are enabled to produce large volume in an incred- ibly short space of time and at one quarter the ordinary cost. They have reduced the price of books 10 slight margin on the cost of production, and rely solely upon the immense sales for steady profits. Their books are well and strongly bound, and are sold at prices ranging from 9 cents up- ward. Only think of a nicely pound book of nearly 700 pages being sold for 70 centsi And the same in half Russ.a, gilt top, 80 cents! It looks like 8 mistake, but it is nevertheless tact.
