PUBLISHERS NOTICES 



'Tis not in mortals to COMMAND success, but we'll do

The Mechanical Part of our Magazine. 



An important factor in the great suc- 

 cess of our magazine has been its 

 mechanical excellence, and for that we 

 arc personally indebted to Mr. R. H. G. 

 Cunningham of Stamford, Connec-

 the magazine since its first issue. It is 

 only just that we should speak a word 

 in his praise. Though his establishment 

 is not large when compared with simi- 

 lar offices in New York and other large 

 cities yet it is of fair size, and consid-

 towns of the size of Stamford, with a 

 population of some twenty-five thou-

 Arcadia at Sound Beach, Connecticut, 



and the magazines are brought to this 

 office by an expressman who usually 

 makes three trips for that purpose. 

 The weight of an edition is about a 

 ton. The paper comes by boat which 

 plies daily between New York City and 

 Stamford.

 Cunningham's office we can truthfully 

 say that our only objection is that he is 

 so often overcrowded with work due 

 to his fame as a first-class printer that 

 there is a tendency to delay the maga-

 bility for the delay, but we frequently 

 find him so busily engaged with large
