The first weeks work of the International
Association of Newspapers and Authors has
awakened the widest curiosity, for it is revO-
luton in the book trade, particularly in the
method OF booksellIng.
The association proposes to take one first
class author each week, and TO familiauze the
whole English-speaking world with his COPY
rghted work. This is done by taking his best
work, advertising it thoroughly in every large
city, and selling it at price that will be merely
nominal. To meet this expense the author sur
renders his royalty, and the publisher his profits
from the copyright for one year.
The first author taken up by the association
is Paul Leicester Ford, and the special book Sc
lected to make him widely known was not
Hon. Peter Sterling or Janice Meredith,
but The Great X. * A. Train Robbery. II
was considered the one which shows best his
dizziness and art in storytelling. 1t is expected
that not less than one million copies of this
work alone will be sold before the year is out
and that no intelligent person speaking English
will be unacquainted with Mr.. Fords ability as
writer.
The public is the gamer by having the 81
clipped off the S1.25 price. while the quality OF
the work remains unmpaired.
The Boston Journal has been selected by the
association to make the plan public for Boston
and vicinity, and, owing to the extraordinary
facilities required to handle the public, arrange
ments have been made with Jordan, Marsh &
Co, Boston, to make the deliveries both at Their
store and by mail. The price at the store is 25c
bound in cloth, or SOC. postpaid. You cannot 60
wrong by clipping the following voucher and
sending it to Jordan, Marsh & Co., with 30c fol-
the book, bound in cloth. Full particulars OF
the plan in the Boston Journal daily. Try this
book and you will want the whole forty books
for your library.
The authors will be the most famous in litera-
ture.
