Moonbeams From the Larger Lunacy

The prudent husbandman, after having taken from his field all the straw that is there, rakes it over with a wooden rake and gets as much again. The wise chfld, after the lemonade jug is empty, takes the lemons from the bottom of it and squeezes them into a still larger brew. So does the sagadous author, after having sold his material to the magaadnes and been paid for it, dap it into book-covers and give it another squeeze. But in the present case the author is of a nice consdence and anxious to place responsibility where it is due. He therefore wishes to make all proper admowledgments to the editors of Vanity Fair The American Magasdne, The Popular Magazine, Life, Puck, The Century, Meihuens A nnual, and all others who are in any way implicated in the making of this book.
