COVER DESIGN FOR 1.-THE BOOK OF WEALTH"
"The Book CT Wealth" seven are com.
pleted. The remaining three will be
printed within a year.
The author is Mr.. Hubert Howe Ban
croft of San Francisco. The inspiration
that led him 70 undertake the work was
found in the Worlds Columbian expo
sition while he was preparing matter
for his subsequently, published Book
Of the Fair" itself a prodigious ven
ture.
In Jackson park during the exposi-
tion period there was gathered much
that represented the wealth and oiviliza-
tion of all lands. The immense wealth
of the world as evidenced by the few
"samples," " impressed Mr.. Bancroft SO
deeply that the suggestion came to him
to gather from the four corners Of the
earth and place in one grand volume all
that represented the wealth Of the ma
tions.
The comm fasteners general Of foreign
countries were in Chicago then. They
promised their aid in gathering mate.
rial for text and illustration. The work
was begun then il earnest. Pictures
were made largely from nature, and the
text was secured from the most authen-
tic sources, with the result that after
six years of labor seven of the ten SEQ
tions, as said in the foregoing, are COM
| pleted.
The first section may be taken as a
| type. 1t is covered with rich old gold
armure silk made for the purpose and
imported by Chicago house. On the
outer cover is dashing water color by
Will H. Low entitled Jason and the
Golden Fleece" 1t represents the ad-
! venturer after he has secured the trophy.
| The inner covers of the typical section
are of white brocaded china. silk, the
brocade being in conventional flowers.
This silk too, was imported by Chi
cago house for 1.-THE Book of Wealth.
The first chapter Of the section opens
with full page half tone picture from
a drawing by E. II, Blashfeld, repre-
senting young ChaldeRn goddess dis
pelling Chaos. Next comes the text, in
large, clear type on heavy calendered
paper, profusely illustrated. The dawn
Of civilization is first told. Then comes
d consecutive history Of the nations Of
remote antiquity as far as it is known.
The American millicnaires are treat
ed in the last three sections, but while
this unique literary effort is called 'The
Book of Wealth the author insists that
it is not intended exclusively for rich
persons nor as glorification of them.
Its purpose is to show what has been
done for the world by men and women
who have used their riches Of mind and
purse for the advancement of the peo-
Piles of the earth. Mr.. Bancroft is at
present residing at Cambridge, where
his sons are attending Harvard college.
Speaking of his book, he says:
"The wealth of the world is limitless.
Much as has been gathered and created.
Infinitely more is yet to come. We have
only just begun to get rich. We have
only just entered upon the civilization
In which wealth is so powerful fac.
tor. And the Book of Wealth shows
SO clearly how wealth is one with civ
llization.
