The Vanishing Profits of Publishers

Although the cost CT bringing books eff.
fectively before the booksellers and the
reading public has so largely increased
with the increase in the extent of the mar
ket, there has, during the past thirty years,
been no deduction in the average rate of
the royalty paid to the author, and, in
fact, the tendency has been to increase this
rate. The increased cost of the distributing
machinery has, therefore, been borne by
the publishers On the book published at
one dollar, on which the author formerly
received a royalty of ten cents, this royalty
remains the same, but the net price com.
ing to the publisher, in place of being, as
formerly, siXty-sc' On cents, is sixty cents,
htty-hye cents, or even fifty cents.
1t is my contention, therefore, that Amer
lean publishers of books have today, with
more expensive publishing and distributing;
machinery, less favorable prospects for Sc
curing remunerative sales for average
books" than WAS the case thirty years ago
The evidence goes to show that the under
takings Of the publishers are subject to the
same law of diminishing returns" that
controls all manufacturing enterprises and
all investments OF capital. George II. Put
nam in Forum.

Shots were made with the best intentions

Finally, after period of futile shots, one

The difficulty in making an effective
strong joint between a tool and its handle
has long been felt, and the disadvantages
thus involved are well understood, not
only in respect to looseness in the joint but
to the positive lack of power. But the in
yention Of the Mannesmaun process for
the production of tubes direct from metal
blocks, would now appear to have rendered
both possible and desirable the making Of
tool combined with its handle; tbRL IL,
by means of that process tubes are pro-
duced having solid portions at one or more
points of their lengths, and these tubular
rods may be made in any convenient
lengths, with solid portions at regular or
irregular distances apart, so that by cut
ting through such solid PORTIONS the rod
can, of course, be divided into CORE
spending number of blanks for tools.
BY cutting such bars through Mt con
venient points, as the size or length will
show to be best, each section will consist
of hollow part, which may be suitably
shaped or bent to form the handle, and the
solid part, which can be shaped into the
tool head by forging or stamping. Various
tools are so formed, and it is obvious that
they possess greater degree of strength
and durability than tools of which the
handles form separate piece New York

A Thin Opening for Light,

Experiments made in Hartford show
that light can be seen through clean cut
opening of not more than one forty-thou-
sandth of an inch This fact was deter
mined by taking two thoroughly clean,
straight edges, placing piece of paper be-
tween the surfaces at one end, the opposite
end being allowed to come together. The
straight edges being placed between the
eye and strong light in u dark room, a
wedge of light was perceived from the ends
between which the paper was placed and
the opposite, which were brought together
The thickness of the paper being known,
the distance apart of the two edges of the
small end of the wedge of light was easily
calculated, and the result was shown as
above. Exchange

Seasoning Timber.

Oak timber loses about one-fifth of its
weight in seasoning and about one third
of its weight in becoming dry Gradual
drying and seasoning are considered the
most favorable to the durability and
strength of timber. Kiln drying is par
ticularly serviceable for boards and pieces
of small dimensions, and unless performed
slowly is apt to cause cracks and impair
the strength Of the wood If timber of
large dimensions be immersed in water for
some weeks it is improved, and is less lia-
BILE to warp and crack in seasoning -Phila-

SONG.
The deft musician's fingers.

The deft musicians fingers,
Lol they lie crossed and numb,
And the soul of the violin is dead
And the magic strings are dumb.
Closed is the old piano,
And chordle.s its amber keys,
As the vanished tidal murmurs
OF prehistoric seas.
The singers voice is silent
That once was sweet and strong;
They faded out like wild birds note
The singer and his song.
The maestrO's touch dies with him;
IT'S gone for good or i'll,
And the singers lips no echoes leave
To linger with us still.
And only the runes of nature
Abide with us for long,
And only the wind and ripples
Sing the eternal song.
