THE CROP OF NOVELS
Works of Fiction Form the Majority I
ManuSCrints Sent To Publishers.

Manuscripts Sent to Publishers.
Novels form the largest part OF the
book manuscripts received by publishing
houses. Out OF 100 manuscripts received
during a recent fortnight by u prominent
publishing firm sixty-two were novels.
In another case fifty-one out of one hum
dred manuscripts submitted during three
weeks were novels. This same ublis her
told me that sometimes the percentage of
novels would reach 70 per cent. This
tendency for novel writing is undcuDt-
eddy due 10 the fact that the greatest
"hits" in the literary world are made
with novels, and this stimulates the av-
erage writer to work in this field.
OF all these novels it is plain to be seen
from the figures given in the preceding
paragraph that scores must be written
before one is accepted. And even if a
writer has novel accepted, the per-
centage OF success is decidedly against
him. During this investigation process
selected fifteen recently published nov.
learned that the entire number printed of
these fifteen novels was II 600 copies, or
about 200 copies of each. And in this
fifteen 5000 copies were printed of one
novel-really the only successful novel of
the lot 1t is safe to say that of these flf-
teen novels the average sale of each will
not reach 1000 copies. But giving that
number to each, the novel selling at 81.
the author would receive less than 500
for his manuscript, deducting for mutt
lated copies and those sent to the news
papers, ETC. / know case after case where
authors did not receive $50. all told, as
return for a novel, and sometimes very
much less than at.-Philadelphia Times

His Queer Prayer.

A Georgia exchange says that at a
prayer meeting held in new church
over in Butts County. a good man prayed
thusly:
'.Oh, Lord, thou knowest that we are
thankful to Thee that our souls are safe
from the fire that quencheth not. If
man lose his horse Thou knowest he can
buy another; if he lose his house Thou
knowest that he can build another; if he
lose his wife Thou knowest that he can
get another. but if ne lose his soul-good-
