If one million working men would pay ten cents each into a fund to help
such a plan, it would mean one hundred thousand dollars a month, or one
million two hundred thousand dollars a year. If one hundred thousand
should do so, it would mean one thousand dollars a month and one hundred
and twenty thousand dollars a year. In five years, with judicious
management and cautious expenditure of such funds, the results would be
marvelous, especially as a dollar in the hands of co-operators would
prove far more efficient than a dollar employed in the extravagant and
wasteful channels of competition. Send a dollar for thirty-four sample
copies and make thirty-four converts to the cause of reform.
Six cents will pay for “Merrie England,” a book of 190 pages, which has
had a sale of 850,000 copies in England and has only begun to sell in
America. It is a popular yet scientific statement of the principles of
Socialism. It is addressed to the people who are prejudiced against
anything of the kind. Get a man to read “Merrie England” and the book
will do the rest. We mail two copies for 10 cents, twelve for 50 cents,
twenty-five for $1.00, a hundred for $3.50.
Ten cents will pay for “President John Smith,” by Frederick Upham Adams,
a book of 300 pages. It has passed through twenty-five editions in a
year. It is a success because it points out practical methods for
intelligent political action by which the people of the United States
may take possession of the government and run it in their own interest.
We mail a dozen copies for $1.00; fifty copies for $3.75.
Twenty-five cents will pay for any one of the following valuable books:
The Co-opolitan, by Zebina Forbush.
Evolutionary Politics, by Walter Thomas Mills.
Man or Dollar. Which? by a newspaper man.
From Earth’s Center, by S. Byron Welcome.
A Breed of Barren Metal, by J. W. Bennett.
Money Found, by Thomas E. Hill.
The six books, or six copies of any one of them, will be sent postpaid
on receipt of one dollar. Special terms to agents, with full list of
reform literature, will be mailed upon request.

MEN WANTED.
We firmly believe that in “The Co-opolitan” we are giving to the people
of the United States a book that will be of untold value in hastening
the progress of human brotherhood and a civilization based on justice.
We believe the people are ready for this book, and that any intelligent
man who believes in co-operation and knows how to express his ideas can
make a good living by selling copies. We want to hear from such men.
We also want to hear from those who have no time for selling books but
who believe intensely in human brotherhood and want to do their part in
making it a fact in this present life. Our object is to provide them
with literature for wide distribution, at prices that are based on the
actual cost of production.
