From the New York World.
 ECENT years have seen a great R increase in the output of magazine l literature in this city. New York leads the world in magazine production. Each month the news stands show gilt tering array of these volumes, tempting to the eye and gratifying to the taste of the reading public. This taste is exact ing and ever changing. It demands al- ways the new and the vital-that which conforms to the spirit of the nour And this demand, be 1t in light fiction or the literature of politics, science or religion, fixes the task and measures the impor- tance of the magazine editor. To be sue cessful he must be bold, discriminating and resourceful. The successful editor stamps his magazine with his individual ity. 1t reflects his attitude in consonance with the spirit of the times, and as this relation Is close and vital his magazine is well received. Many have failed, but those who have succeeded have won a hard-fought and considerable success.
 Very many of the editors of the New York magazines rose from the ranks of the newspaper workers. This was the case with John Cosgrave, the editor of Everybody's, who went to California af- ter living the first twenty years of his life in New Zealand, and engaged in jour- nalistic work on San Francisco newspa- pers. Later he owned and edited the Wave, Pacific coast magazine.
 Robert Maclxay, managing editor of Sue cess, also began work as a reporter in San Francisco He advanced to be man aging editor of a daily paper, and tray eled over much of the world before he took up magazine work
 John Brlsben Walker was in journalistic work from 1873 to 1879, becoming finally managing editor of the Washington Chronicle. Also an important feature of MT. Walkers career as preliminary to his ownership of a magazine was the years he spent-1S7S-S9-in Colorado con ducting an alfalfa farm-important be- cause it contributed to his wealth-and the year following that experience saw the establishment of the Cosmopolitan. of which he is still the editor.
 MT. Walker when a youth had military ambitions. He entered the academy at West Point, but resigned his cadetship to enter the military service, in which he remained from 1868 to 1870.
 Ellery Sedgwick. the editor of Leslie S Monthly, also had a journalistic career after he graduated from Harvard in 1894. and taught for year at the Groton school.
 Charles Dwyer. who has been editor of the Delineator since 1885, after three years of newspaper work in London, came to New York and was made assistant ed itor of the magazine ne now controls.
 Frank A. Munsey came to New York in 1882 with less than $40 in his pocket. launched various publications. and at 49 was making GOO n year net profit out of his three magazines CMunsey's the Ar gosy and the All-Story). This aside from his newspapers (Boston JournaD and Washington Times).
 It was Mir. Munsey who introduced half tone illustrations into cheap magazines, and he was the first man to bring out a high-class monthly for 10 cents.
 MT. Munsey began his career in a coun- try store in Maine, became manager of the
