Mans Magazine. The total circulation OF
/ these six magazines is over 2.20c coo copies
and the amount Of fiction issued by this
one publishing house every thirty days
| is said to be over five tons.
Woman is a straight reading magazine,
| making uD for it's lack of Illustrations
by its wealth Of stories, articles and de-
partments. 1t was apparently built on
the principle that woman would rather
| read good story than glance over few
| pages Of more or less interesting Illus
\ trations. The principle is undoubtedly a
sound one, when the stories are as much
worth reading as those in the November
| Woman.
The first number indicates that NJ
MunSey has again accomplished a seem
| ing impossibility in finding a new field
/ for new magazine This is, however, as
it should be, for since Mr.. Munsey intro
| duced the first Decent magazine, the
publishing world has gotten more or less
into the habit of waiting to see what he
will do next. Woman is his latest an
swer and a very good one.
