SESESEEIRERESS BT G on B EECEEEERT & e SRS TR H5BE Efexaommmnne A GREAT EDITOR’S SUCCESS. He Ascribes to His Industry, Tempor- ance and Frugality. George W. Childs has at last ylelded to tho demand made to him ?n the publication of his recolloctions of peo= })ln and things. Lippincott’s Magazine or June will contain the first of four chatty articles, embodying the experi- oncos and reminiscences of this very remarkable man. By the courtesy of the publishers we are enabled to give our readers says thé Chicago Intor- Ocean the following extracts: “T want to sot out by saying that [ am sure you in kindness exaggerate the in= torest the world takes in my affairs. You say I am a successful man. Peor« haps I am; and if so, I owe my success to industr lemfl)urunco. and frugality. I suppose I had always a rathor re- markablo aptitude for business. James Parton, at any rate, was right in speak- ing of me in Tis biographical sketoh as ‘bartering at school my boyish troasures —knives for pigeons, marbles for pop= guns, a bird cagoe for a book.” Y1 WAS SELF-SUPPORTING at a vory early age. Inmy twelfth year, when school was dismissed for the sums mer, I took the place of errand boy in a book store in Baltimore at a salary of $2a weok, and spent the vacation in hard work. And I enjoyed it. I have noever been out of employment; always found something to do, and was always oager to do it,and think I carned every cent of my first money. When first at work in Philadelphia T would get up vory early in the morning, go down to the store and wash the pavement and put things in order before breakfast, and in tho winter time would make the fire and sweep out the store. In the same spirit, when books were bought at night at auction, I would early the next morning go for them with a wheelbar- row. And I have never outgrown this wholesome habit of doing things di- rectly and 1n order. I would to-day as lief carry a bundle up Chestnut street from the Ledger office as I would then. As o matter of fact, I carry bundles very often. But I understand that ce) tain young men of the period woul scorn to do as much.” MR. CHILDS THEN SPEAKS of the events of his life from the time he entered the United States navy, at the age of thirteon,and proceeds to say; “I had saved enough money when abou eighteen years old to go into busin for myself] so T set up a modest store i asmall room in the old Public Ledger building. It was a success; I mnlse money slowly but surely. Meanwhile, it is said of me that I aspired to higher things; that I was even heard to say, ‘I shall yet L.e the owner of the Public Ledger.” If thisis true, and doubtless it is, I do not seem to have overreached myself at that carly age. [ was twenty-one years old when I entered into the book-publishing busi- ness under the irm name of R. E. Peter- son & Co., afterward Childs & Petersoy. One of our first books, Dr. Kane'’s. *Arctic Explorations,’ was a great hit, 1t did not look asfirst as though we had made a wise venture. When the work was ready to issue, I took a sam copy and went over to New York to sgs licit orders from the leading booksel- lers. The largest would only give me a small order. ‘Mr. Childs,’ they said, ‘you won't sell more than a thousand altogether.” They ordered at first onl, 100 copies, but soon after sent for 5, more to meet the demand. Within one ear after the publication we paid Dr, Kane a copyright of nearly 370,000, THE DOCTOR’S ORIGINAL INTENTION was to write only a scientific ‘account of the expedition in search of Sir John Franklin, but I persuaded him to mgke of it the popular narrative he did and he afterward admitted to me that I was right in my suggestion. When the manugeript was finished he sent me a pathetic note, in which he said: ‘Here you have the work complete, and, p% as it is, it has been my coffin.’ E doubt he had then iome premonition of of the beginning of the end of his re- markable career. He died in Cuba within a year after receiving his copy~ right money, and doubtless many peo- ple remember well the splendid tribute arranged for him; that funeral was one of the most remarlkable in history. “We made another hit with Parson Brownlow’s book,of which 500,000 copies were ordered in advance of publication. Other successful works issued by us were ‘Peterson’s Familiar Science,’ of which a quarter of a million have been sold; Bouvier’s Law Dictionary, Shars- wood’s Blackstone, and Mr. Allibone’s great ‘Dictionary of British and Ameri- can Authors.” It cost over 860,000 to ublish this last, named important boole in three large volumes, and a great deal of the credit for the successful comple- tion of the undertaking is due to the enterprise of the late J B. Lippincott, who brought out the last two volumes upon my retirement from the book publishin business in 1863. The following year purchased the Public Ledger. And I want to say just here that much of the success of the paper has been due to the cordial and intelligent co-operation of my friend, A. J. Drexel.” Speaking of the Public Ledger, he says: *I worked hard to make the paper a success; for several years I sel- dom left the cditorial rooms before midnight, averaging from twelve to fourteen hours a day at the office. I strove to clevate its tone, and think I succeeded. If asked what I mean by this, perhaps I had better quote the friendly words of the late Rev. Dr, Prime: ‘Mr. Childs excluded from the paper all details of disgusting crime; all reports of such vice as mn{ not with propriety be read aloud in the family, that poison the minds of young men, inflame the passions and corrupt the heart; all scandal and slang, and that whole class of news which constitutes the staple of many daily papers, The same rule was applied to the advertis~ ing columns, and from them was ex- cluded all that, in any shape or form, might be offensive to good morals, The friends of the new publisher predicted an early and total failure, and the more speedy because he doubled the price of the paper and increased the rates of advertising. But he was governed in his course by two considerations: flvst, he had his own convictions of what is right, and, secondly, as strong- convictions of what would ny; and it has been well said that when one’s views of duty coincide with his pecuniary interests, all the facul- ties work in perfect harmony, THE EFFECT OF T11S SUDDEN CHANGE was at first to sink the sinking concern still lower. A class of readers and ad- vertisers fell off, A less conscicntious and a less courageous man would have staggered in the path he bad marked. Not £0 with Mr. Childs, He employed the best talent, and paid fair wufuu for gocd work. Ie published six days in the week only, and on the seventh day he rested from his labors, His paper and his priveiples hl:}i'nu 10 obluin reus ognition in the city. e made it a fam-* ily journal. [t gained the counfidence of the best people, who became its daily readers, and,therefore,it was qu\n [t the best medium of advertising.” 1t is not for me to add to or comment ugon these complimentary words. Ou the 20th of June, 1867, the Hro-ent Mx:fi' building was completed and for opened. The ceremonics were followe by a banquet attended by m dl? T quished men from different jovte ¢ T country, . 3 >
