best selling book last season which
went into eight editions, but the total
number of copies sold was less than
the first edition of their best book this
year. A possible explanation of the
matter is that the publishers make the
first edition of book equal TO the num-
Der which they think they can sell.
This estimate is often based on the adj
vance orders, more often on the fame
Of the author and the record of his
previous sales, and sometimes on the
basis of speculation This latter plan
seems to have obtained in the case OF
many of the new writer's who have been
doomed to popularity, and big sales by
the patent medicine and soap methods
of advertising. When book goes into
its fourth and fifth editions it may be
guessed that it is selling better than
the publishers believed il would There

LOST HIS NERVE.
WAy II Was That Big Pete Failed t.
HIT the Sheriff.

WV II Was That BIG Pete Failed t.
HIT the sheria.
There were thirty men in the White
Wolf saloon when the sheriff Of Silver
county sauntered In to arrest big Pete
Thompson for murder. Pete was play
ing hand In game Of poker. and
altar nodding to him the sheriff stood
up Ut the bar and called for drink.
His back was scarcely turned when
Pete laid down his cards, pulled his
gun and fred six shots as fast as his
finger could pull the trigger. The sheriff
never moved. When the smoke had
rolled out Of the open door and we
could see, the sheriff stood In the same
position and wore the same smile. One
bullet had burned his cheek; second
had grazed his ear; third had cut
through his shirt collar under the left
ear. Big Pete was dead shot, and
yet he had missed his man at fifteen
feet.
"Got through, Peter" asked the sher-
ii, breaking silence that was posi-
lively painful.
"And you-you are not heeledw
gasped Pete as his arm sunk slowly
down.
mo; come on"
"You didn't bring your guns?"
"No; II you are through shooting,
we'll 60"
Pete laid his two guns down on the
table before him and walked to the
door and out into the street. His horse
was tied to post a block away. He
reached the horse, mounted and then
headed down the long street after the
sheriff. who was giving him not the
slightest attention. In FIVE minutes the
pair were out Of sight.
"What allied Pete?" was asked of
the barkeeper, who had come to the
door of the saloon.
Lost his nerve" he brusquely re-
piled.
"How do you mean?"
"Why, the sheriff coming without a
gun and standing there to be shot at
took all his sand away and made wo-
man Of him."
Suppose the sheriff had had q gum"
The man jerked his head toward the
field wherein fifteen or twenty victims
had been buried and said:
"He'd a. bin over thar"
"And will big Pete get clear?"
Likely; but he'll have to leave here.
The boys have already put him down
