The greater part of all improvements will be paid for by the individual property owners, but in order to do the work in a business-like manner, it will be necessary for the city to pay for these improvemenis and assess it against the property.

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. Evgry- thing 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, humior, pathos, satire, the weird, the mystical—everything that can be classified and everything that cannot be classified. 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 bave 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 and figures, and historical and personal bits that are of rare value. Furthermore, we have a corps of peo- ple ransacking libraries, reading all the current publications, the leading daily papers, and digging out curious and quaint facts and useful facts and figures from reference book, cyclopedia, etc., etc. Don’t fail to get a copy of this first 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.
