Number.” 25c. a copy or one dollar a year._

THE ROYCROFT PRINTING SHOP at this time desires to announce a sister book
to the Song of Songs: which is Solomon’s. It is the Journal of Koheleth:
being a Reprint of the Book of Ecclesiastes with an Essay by Mr. Elbert
Hubbard. The same Romanesque types are used that served so faithfully
and well in the Songs, but the initials, colophon and rubricated borders
are special designs. After seven hundred and twelve copies are printed
the types will be distributed and the title page, colophon and borders
destroyed.
IN PREPARATION of the text Mr. Hubbard has had the scholarly assistance
of his friend, Dr. Frederic W. Sanders, of Columbia University. The
worthy pressman has also been helpfully counseled by several Eminent
Bibliophiles.
_Bound in buckram and antique boards. The seven hundred copies that are
printed on Holland hand-made paper are offered at two dollars each, but
the twelve copies on Japan Vellum at five dollars are all sold. Every
book will be numbered and signed by Mr. Hubbard._

ANÆMIC.
Oh pray excuse,
this muse.
Anæmic she—
Nipping,
at crackers,
Sipping,
at tea—
A bloodless she!
Stuff her
’till she cries, enough!
Cuff her,
’twill make her tough.
Puff her— ——
if you want a duffer
Nipping at crackers, sipping at tea—
...
A buxom muse is the muse for me.
ELEANOR B. CALDWELL.
