A New Magazine for You I am bringing out another new magazine that you will come pretty close to liking. I wouldn’t be surprised if it hit you' harder than anything in the shape of a magazine you have ever seen. There isn’t much style to it, but it has the stuff in it that you and everybody else will want to read. It is called g ■■ lm— —m THE SCRAP L BC®K J psi— , Aft.. <>* Something New in Magazine Making THE SCRAP BOOK is the most elastic thing that ever happened in the way of a magazine—elastic enough to carry anything from a tin whistle to a battleship. Everything that appeals to the human brain and human heart comes within its compass—fiction, which is the backbone of periodical circulation; biography, review, philosophy, science, art, poetry, wit, humor, pathos, satire, the weird, the mystical—everything that can‘be classified and everything that cannot be classified. A paragraph, a little bit, a saying, an editorial, a joke, a maxim, an epigram. Nothing Like It in the World There isn’t anything in the world just like THE SCRAP BOOK. It is an idea on which we have been working for several years, and for which we have been gathering materials. We have bought hundreds and hundreds of scrap books from all over the country, some of them a century old, and are still buying them. From these books we are gathering and classifying an enormous number of gems, and facts end figures, and historical and personal bits that are of rare value. Furthermore, we have a corps of people ransacking libraries, reading all the current publications, the leading daily papers, and digging out curious and quaint facts and useful factsand figures from reference book, cyclopedia, etc., etc. Don’t fail to get a copy of this fisst issue of THE SCRAP BOOK. It sells at the price at which all our other maga- • • zines sell—Ten Cents a Copy and One Dollar by the Year. On all news stands or from the publisher FRANK A. MUNSEY, 175 Fifth Avenue, New York
