BOOKS IN OLD ROME.
Trained Slave Copyists Turned Them
Out Quick and Cheap.

Trained Slave Copyists Turned Them
Out Quick and Cheap.
There were in Augus1an Rome es-
tabished publishing houses which not
only turned out large numbers OF
books. but many editions of them and
at an incredibly small price. That
their arrangements were businesslike
may be inferred from the testimony
of Horace He relates that when an
author failed to please the metropolis
the publishers shipped the entire edi-
ton of his works to the provinces, and
if he still failed as II writer they made
arrangements to bring them back again
and sell them as paper to the pastry
and spice shops
One great firm in Rome had over
1000 trained slave copyists, and their
work was swift and cheap, for Mar
tial writes that they had ready an edi-
ton of thousand copies of his "Epi-
grams" in just one hour. to be sold at
10 cents copy The exceedingly
large reading public which all this in
dicates must have been many years In
growing, and one may assume that
Rome had long been city of readers.
Atticus. the publisher Of Cicero. had
great many modern methods in the
conduct Of his business, and the fact
that Caesars "Commentaries" were
very quickly dispatched to the out
posts of civilization shows that the
machinery of distribution was also
well organized Thus we may con-
clude that the advertising and public
ity department was in good shape

Ausku lnns of ahrador.

All along the coast at every Eskimo
encampment and about the cabins or
the liveyeres are numbers of husky
dogs. In winter these animals pull
the sledges and form the sole means
of travel or communication from set
tlement to settlement. During the
summer they are not fed by their
owners. but are left to seek their sus-
tenance as best they can; hence the
hungry brltes range the land near the
coast and add to the problems of Lab
rador. rs they permit no creature TO
live that they can pull down. II

overnight only its bare bones would
be found in the morning. Even to hu.
man beings they are sometimes dan
gerous when night begins to fall. and
on occasion when hard driven by hun

children in the day. Considering they
are hardly ever fed in the summer.
one only wonders that there are not
more i'll deeds to set TO their account.
