THE LITERARY BULLETIN.

TO DEALERS.

In response to the continued request of subscribers, THE LITERARY BULLETIN, in entering on its fourth year, will be edited on a new plan, more calculated to attract the general reader.

Its leading features will be:

1. A Price List of the most important or salable books of the month, so arranged as to enable readers interested in any special branch of literature to obtain at a glance all information needed. In accordance with the wish of most subscribers, the names of the publishers, which are given in the Monthly Alphabetical Lists of the WEEKLY TRADE CIRCULAR, will be omitted. in the BULLETIN.

2. Original articles on Contemporary Literature.

3. Literary and Art Gossip.

4. Quotations from the best literature of the day.

5. Descriptive notes on novelties suitable for sale at the bookstores.

Every intelligent bookseller has felt the need of some list of new books to distribute to his customers, and to book-buyers whom he wishes to make customers.

Several of the most enterprising firms have begun the issue of periodical circulars, prepared by themselves, for gratuitous distribution. But these individual circulars are very expensive, very troublesome, and necessarily very incomplete.

The LITERARY BULLETIN, which was started three years ago on the coöperative plan of dividing the main expense of compilation and type-setting among a large number of subscribers and advertisers, has most successfully met this want, and now? is the cheapest and most valuable advertising aid accessible to the dealer.

In this BULLETIN the dealer gets for $5 that which he could not make for himself for $100. For the cost of a single goodsized newspaper advertisement, which will never be read by half the persons whom the retailer would specially wish to reach, which will contain say from ten to twenty titles, and which will be thrown aside as soon as read once, the retailer can buy an edition of the BULLETIN, with his sole imprint, in a form which he can send to every book-reader of his acquaintance, and which in such hands will be apt to be read and put away on file, instead of meeting the fate of the ordinary newspaper.

Without a medium of this kind, the dealer's sales are limited to his stock. This BULLETIN enables him to call his customers' attention to books, without the risk of buying them all in advance.

This plan has worked on the Continent of Europe for years. Brockhaus's Monthly Bulletin and Reinwald's and Bossange's Bulletin Mensuel are furnished, with special imprints, to booksellers all over Europe, and even to some in the United States. These enterprising dealers have lists of persons to whom they know it pays to send such circulars, and they send them regularly. Thus orders for many books may be secured that otherwise would escape the notice of the book-buyer.

Any Book-dealer can buy quantities of the Bulletin with his sole imprint. It is not sent with the Publisher's imprint to anybody.

We hold the last outside page of each customer's edition subject to such advertisement as may be ordered, charging for it the cost of stereotyping. The cost of making the stereotype plate (averaging $2.50) need be incurred but once, as the same can. be used on each edition for an indefinite period.

Dealers ordering the BULLETIN will please state the mode of shipment.

A MILLION TOO MUCH,

A TEMPERANCE TALE.

By Mrs. Julia McNair Wright,

authoress of "Priest and Nun," "The Best Fellow in the World," "Jug or Not," &c., &c. 12mo., cloth extra. Price, $1.50.

The latest and by far the best work by this talented author; a book which, once taken up, will not be laid down until finished; which, once read, will never be forgotten. It is the literary sensation of the year.

OUR ENGLISH BIBLE AND ITS ANCESTORS,

AN HISTORICAL PLEA FOR REVISION. By Rev. Treadwell Walden. 16mo., cloth extra. Price, $1.25. [Sunday School Times.]

"An admirable popular account of the successive steps in the growth of the English version of the Bible, from the first attempt, by Wyckliffe, down to the final revision in the reign of King James."

[Christian Witness and Church Advocate.] "A very complete sketch of the history of the English Bible from the time of Wyckliffe, written in a very fine, forci ble style, and full of suggestive thought. In its historical statements it is always accurate, and constitutes a history of the Reformation in England from the standpoint of the Bible. The story of the English Bible is a very fascinating one, and to this little book, as bringing out this profound interest which gathers about it, we are much indebted, and heartily commend it to our readers."

[Christian Union.]
