Book Frauds.

The prompt conviction of the men
who selected books as the medium with
which to defraud their victims is graft
flying. 1t was confidence game, pure
and simple. Books were chosen by these
men, in preference to mining stocks for
example, because the names of promi-
nent publishers on the title pages ear
ried weight as a guarantee of quality.
If the books had remained unaltered the
publishers would have less TO complain
Of, but in order to initiate the prices
these friends of millionaire book col
Iectors" inserted all sorts. of extra IL
Illustrations and bound the volumes in
famboyant styles which the publishers
never would have tolerated. After this
prices were tolerated to an inconceivable
degree. The publisher was made to APP
pear to endorse all this because his name
remained on the title pages. Unfortu-
nately, as result of this, for those
who love good books and appreciate the
taste and skin required to produce beau
tiful publications, in which Boston has
always taken high rank, the public has
been led to believe that books sold by
subscription are likely to be open to
suspicion. This, of course, is most UNI
just to publishers whose books are sold
by agents. AS is well known the lead
ing publishers in the country employ
agents for the reason that sets OF books,
or such as require a large preliminary
outlay and call for corresponding risk,
cannot be sold in any other way.
Bookstores would not be justified in
ordering the quantities needed to be
sold BY the publisher to ensure him
against loss. Audubon solicited sub
scriptions to enable him to publish his
work, now almost priceless No diction-
airy, atlas, encyclopedia or extensive
legal. medical or historical work could
be sold in large enough quantities
through the bookstores. There is no
reason why the occupation of agent for
books should not as honorable as any
with sales effected by per-
sonal interview and it is well to consider
that to this much abused solicitor we
owe the existence of all our most val
liable works of reference. Boston Her

A city's Cleanliness a city's Asset.


The clean up and paint up spirit Is
abroad in the land and the movement is
the most systematic and comprehensive
OF any movement of its kind vet
launched. in that it aims to establish a
spirit of cleanliness in the communities
where it is carried out. Every effort in
this direction enhances civic pride.
Along about May LIST is the date gem
orally set aside for the commencement
of this work Our board of health has
always signifed its desire to promote
this idea and further its enactment by
cooperation with clubs, organizations, or
individuals who will lend their aid to
the general project of making Rutland a
cleaner city.
That cleanliness is akin to Goodness
should be accepted from the standpoint
OF community az well as an individual
Every individual prides himself upon his
personal appearance. A suit well
pressed, shoes that are clean, and linen
that is immaculate go to make up one
of good address.
And just as the individual is Judged
by his clean linen and personal appear
ance so is municipality judged BY the
condition of its streets, its buildings and
other outward appearances.
1t is the duty of every citizen who
takes pride in Rutland to join in this
most commendable movement of "clean
up" and paint up" Rutland's cleanli-
ness and neat appearance will prove to
be Rutland's asset. People are attracted
to city which shows its self-respect by
being tidy and presentable.-- Rutland
