Nothing is more common in all libraries, public and private, than imperfect and partially bound sets of serials, whether newspapers, reviews, magazines or the proceedings and reports of scientific and other societies. Nothing can be more annoying than to find the sets of such publications broken at the very point where the reference or the wants of those consulting them require satisfaction.
It sold the same material to as many newspapers as it could for simultaneous publication in their Sunday editions, which had each its special field, and did not compete with another. I do not think the syndicate began with serials, and I do not think it is likely to end with them.
Oh, it's just grand." No, we don't use serials and when we do we buy them in stereotyped plates by the pound. This made Miss Bolton droop, with another disappointed "Oh." The grain of the world seems so coarse when one looks at it closely.
The art of writing them is now so disciplined and diffused with us that there is no lack either for the magazines or for the newspaper "syndicates" which deal in them almost to the exclusion of the serials.
"If mysterious poisons were believed in by the ancients and remained undetected in their time it was because there were no means of analysis. But the drug of the Borgias would now lead the simpleton who might employ it straight to the Assizes. Such stories are mere nonsense, and at the present day people scarcely tolerate them in newspaper serials and shockers."
The ways of failure are infinite, and of course are not nearly exhausted. One good plan is never to be yourself when you write, to put in nothing of your own temperament, manner, character or to have none, which does as well. We have them every month in some American periodicals, and our poor insular serials can get on without them: "have no use for them."
She had always believed London society quite the proper thing, and she had followed the serials of "The Duchess" with reverent awe. But Mrs. Franklyn-Haldene ought to know; she had traveled in Europe several seasons. Mrs. Franklyn-Haldene was one of the prominent social leaders, and Mrs. Fairchilds had ambitions. The ready listener gets along very well in this old world of ours.
He was disgustingly gleeful about it, particularly as it was a better specimen than mine." "Would you know it, if you saw it again?" Rand asked. "Yes. I remember the serials. I always look at serials on Confederate arms. The highest known serial number for a Leech & Rigdon is 1393; this one was 1234." Rand pulled the .36 revolver from his pants-leg and gave it a quick glance; the number was 1234.
Think what she'll be, when he's fifty!" "Of course if you happen to want a policeman, there's never one within miles of you." "This tipping system is terrible, but what can one do about it?" "I don't know what we ever did without the telephone!" "After I've shampooed my hair I can't do a thing with it!" "I never read serials." "No, let me pay! I've got to change this bill anyway."
Our literature was government agriculture reports, patent medicine almanacs, seedsmen's booklets, and Sears Roebuck catalogues. We subscribed to Farm and Fireside and read the serials aloud. Every now and then, for real excitement, we read something stirring in the Old Testament that cheery book Jeremiah, for instance, of which Andrew was very fond.
