How to sen hooks.

1t is not generally known but It is a
fact that twenty times as many books are
sold by subscription as are sold directly
over the counter Of book stores, and the
value Of these books will amount to much
more than twenty times the value Of those
books sold through regular houses. The
reason for this Is that the publishers of
the finest books early found that they must
choose between the agent and the book
stores. They found that the agent made
more rapid sales and that he would not
handle those books which were on sale in
the stores, as he could do better with ex-
elusive lines. The publisher invests much
money in the finer publications and must
realize quick returns. Thus the better
books are in the hands OF the agents, and
1t is now seldom that a good edition of
standard authors is sold over the counter
these sales being limited to a great extent
to cheaper editions which do not involve
large amounts.
On the other hand, the books in the hands
OF the agents have gradually increased in
elegance of workmanship and in price until
among those now on sale in Omaha may
be found one edition of Dumas which is
worth {1,375. That this price is not some
thing remarkable is shown by the fact that
there is now an edition OF Dickens works
which has sold for $3.50 000-1SO volumes at
$1,000 volume, and a firm Is now bringing
out an edition of Zola's novels which will
sell for 100000. These editions are limited,
the Dickens set being limited to seventeen
Of which seven were destined for England
and ten for America. The Zola edition
will also be limited.

to have their own characteristics
either for good or bad. Leprosy is
certainly a characteristic of tropical
chimes. In the Philippine Islands are
lepers to the number of 20, 600, scattered
in the various islands of the group.
This subject has been before the Phil
ippine Island Civil Commission for a
year or more, but no decisive steps
have been taken in the matter until
this month. About three weeks ago
the U. S. S. General Alava took the
commissioners to the group of islands
known as the Sulu group, being the
most southern of the Philippine
Islands and close to the coast of Bor-
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1902-03-05

neo. The object of the commission
was to select an island where the un-
fortunate lepers could be placed, there
by greatly increasing the safety of
other people with whom they are now
living. After proper investigation
the commission decided upon the
island known as Cagayende Jolo,
which is one of the Sulu group and
about sixty miles from the northwest
ern coast Of BOrneo. It will now de-
volve upon the commission to first re-
move the few natives who claim the
above island as their home and then
to pick up the lepers in the various
islands and transport them to this
island. It will also become necessary
to make a few improvements and alter
ations before the unfortunates can be
expected to help themselves.
This is not the first experience of the
United States with the leper problem.
Hawaii has her percentage of lepers
and the Molokai settlement there is
occupied entirely by such.
The above has been set forth that
those who think we are treating the
Filipinos unjustly, may also see that
we are doing them good. Things are
being done for the Filipinos now, that
the Spaniards never dreamt of doing
and while they mistrusted US at first
anyone can see that the better class of
Fi1ipinos are beginning to see the
many advantages in our form of gov
ernmeht and will become our friends
and loyal supporters of our flag.
