Publishers, like authors, have their troubles.
Criticism does not stop at the contents OF a
book. 1t Is directed now and then at the man
ner in which the book is made. Only the other

who could not understand why the pages of
books were so often left uncut. We sympathized
with him, for at that very moment we were
struggling with volume in which the pages
were uncut at the bottom, where constant use

against anticipation of the future in the dates
placed on title pages. Why book published

But the most serious grievance which has lately
been brought to light is that Of Mr.. Claude
Phillips, who writes to the press pointing out
that the monograph on Vatican which he
brought out in 1895 has been reissued by the
publishers without his having been offered the
opportunity to make 'the corrections and addi-
lions which would in the ordinary course be
necessary after a lapse of nine years." or to
