For the Chicago Convention.
Why would not Senator J. P.
Jones make a good delegate to the
Chicago Convention? He has min
gled with public men and been iden-
tilted with public affairs for
twelve years. His wide personal
acquaintance with the public men
who would gather in Chicago,
would enable him to do much
which comparative stranger could
not do. Senator Jones should GER
tainly be one of the delegates.

BUYERS OF OLD BOOKS.
A cond-Hand Book Dealer Explains
How lie Carries on His Business.

A Second Hand Book Dealer Explains
How lie Carries on His Business.
'.Where do all the old books come
from? Well. that is 4 question which
requires a long answer. 1t is one which
we are asked a good many times during
the day" said the proprietor of a sec
ond-hand book store to a reporter.
There is a prevailing idea that most
of the books upon our shelves are sold
to Us by destitute people who take this
means of raising a little cash. but that
Is true in Il limited number Of cases
only. II Is true that people whose fort
uncS have suddenly changed for the
worse are ready TO sell their books if
they have many Of them. Many books
are brought TO us by n class of people
who have no desire to keep them after
they have once been read. The money
which they get for them is spent for
others, which in turn are soil to Us.
This system accounts for many of the
new books unsold which are upon our
shelves.
$50 many books are now printed and
sold in pamphlet form. however. that
this is not done so often as formerly.
Only those books which are sold in
bindings by the publishers and are not
published in pamphlet form reach us in
this way.
The great bulk of our volumes are
bought in large numbers. whole
libraries which are sold by the executors
of the wills of deceased persons to sat
lsfy h claims of creditors. or libraries
of men who are no longer able to keep
them. So common has this become that
those who have the disposition of the
books in charge summon the book men
and request them TO make estimates up-
on the stock the same as contractors bid
Cor work. The highest bidder get, the
lot. The value of a library is not reg
ulated by the original cost of the books
which 1t contains, nor the conditions of
the covers and the general state OF
preservation. but by the nature of read
ing matter contained. Patent-office re-
ports and medical and legal books NAV
cost fortunes to print. and be- the best
works extant upon those subjects. but
the average buyers of secondhand vol
umes are no; the poor. thirsting
students. anxious to improve their
minds, which they are sometimes repre-
sented to be. Occasionally we are af-
fiicted with 4 person who spends hours
looking through our shelves for rare
works. but the majority of our buyers
are looking for sensational works,
novels. border dramas in their l~iyeliest
forms and enhancing works of fiction OF
all kinds.
1.-The larger the number of these
works in q library, the greater the value
of that library to the secondhand book
dealer. The per cent. Of solid reading
matter sold would not par the interest
on the cost of works of fiction.
school books are excepted from this
classification. Secondhand book stores
are recognized as markets for school
books and we deal in them largely. Pu-
pills graduate from one set of books 10
another long before the old one are
worn out We pay good prices for
these works when they n standard.
for they sell readily and N quite IS
good and answer the same purpose to
the buyers. WORKS on Astronomy.
