THE woman journalist is not to obtain a footing in Japan. The Japanese House of Legislature has just decided that women are not fitted for the work of either editors or publishers, and has consequently passed a regulation to the effect that no one is to hold a post of this kind except a male over twenty-one years of age.

THE New York Herald is to celebrate its entrance to its new building with some novel features. It intends to print colored illustrations such as have never been printed in daily newspapers before; and "wash drawings" and direct reproductions from photographs will adorn its pages. Emile Zola's novel, Lourdes," will be published in its columns.

GEORGE ILES is authority for the announcement that, beginning next January, an index to periodicals on a new plan will be published Cranston & C weekly in New York. Each issue during a quarter will recapitulate all the tiles from the beginning of the quarter; and at the end of the sixth, ninth and twelfth months a special issue will recapitulate all the titles from the commencement of the year. This publication is made possible by the Mergenthaler and similar machines which cast type as a solid line. Its publisher will be J. Wellman Parks, who at present is in charge of the library exhibit of the National Department of Education at the World's Fair.

Imprimerie Paul Dupont, who show specimens of title-deeds, a complete collection of parliamentary debates in France from 1787 to 1860 in 110 volumes, and a fine library of educational works; and A. Storck, of Lyons, who, besides a large line of law-books, has sent some fine works of art, including "Recueil d'Archéologie Lyonnaise," etchings representing the principal ancient architectural monuments of this great provincial city, and some very valuable works on medicine and hygiene.

Among publishers who make specialties of juveniles J. Hetzel & Co. stand easily first, and have sent a long line of children's books, toybooks and educational works. They, however, also carry a most important line of illustrated novels, among which are the works of Jules

THE PUBLISHERS' EXHIBITS AT THE Verne, Erckmann-Chatrian and Victor Hugo,

WORLD'S COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION.

FRANCE.-II.

STILL in this second room of the French book exhibit we find sixteen volumes of "La Grande Encyclopédie," a monumental work (prepared exclusively by specialists), published by H. Lamirault & Co., who are planning to complete it in twenty-eight volumes. On another shelf we find another important work of reference, Pierre Larousse's" Le Grand Dictionnaire Universel du XIXeme Siècle," published by La Librairie Larousse (Hollier-Larousse & Co.), which has recently been augmented by a second supplementary volume (making the seventeenth of the whole work), which is in itself an encyclopædia of contemporary events. Messieurs Larousse also exhibit Le Dictionnaire Analogique," edited by P. Boissière; " Le Dictionnaire des Opéras," edited by Felix Clement and Pierre Larousse ; Le Dictionnaire d'E'ectricité et de Magnetisme," by G. Dumont, and "Les Annales d'Electricité," a supplement to the former; "Le Dictionnaire Complet Illustré de la Langue Française," edited by Pierre Larousse; and "La Revue Encyclopédique," published under the direction of Georges Moreau-a fine array of works of reference, all reaching perfection in mechanical details. A. Le Vasseur & Co. display some interesting illustrated works, among the most notable of which are A. Descubes' "Nouveau Dictionnaire de Histoire, de Geographie, de Mythologie, et de Biographie," a work in two large volumes that has been recognized as official by the Commissioners of Public Instruction; and the complete illustrated works of Pierre Loti, with designs by G. Bourgain and Desiré Bourgoin engraved on wood by A Léveillé.

and, also, several of Viollet-le-Duc's famous
architectural works. Another well-known pub-
lisher of illustrated gift-books, juveniles, indus-
trial arts and scientific works, Charles Delagrave,
has on exhibition
Gautier, a work crowned by the French Acade-
'La Chevalerie," by Leon
my, full of handsome illustrations; "A History
of the Military School of Saint Cyr," with fifty-
two illustrations by Paul Jazet, and “L'An
1789." by Hippolyte Gautier, a magnificent
quarto volume with 650 illustrations, which ac-
cording to luxuriance of binding sells from 50
francs to 200 francs. This firm also has fine
atlases and dictionaries and makes a specialty of
catalogues and bibliographies chiefly for educa-
tional purposes. L. Westhausser, Paris, also
devotes himself to juveniles, and draws most of
his material from Germany and England. He
has on exhibition a collection of nearly 200 chil-
dren's books, among which are many of those
movable picture-books first invented by Braun
& Schneider, of Munich, and I. F. Schreiber, of
Esslingen, Germany. M. Westhausser also dis-
plays a line of literary biographies and many
important works on military science.

Interesting as are the exhibits of every publisher, we must move a little more rapidly. Librairie de l'Edition Nationale, of which Emile Testard is the leading spirit, exhibits the complete works of Molière, illustrated by J. Leman and Maurice Leloir; the edition nationale of Victor Hugo's works, illustrated by contemporary masters; the collection artistique of the works of Balzac, Alex. Dumas, Mérimée; and a number of other superb editions. M. Testard also publishes an excellent popular magazine, La Revue de Famille. E. Plon, Nourrit & Co. exhibit a collection of memoirs of people noted during the ancien régime, the revolution, the empire and the restoration, such as Marbot, Jarras, Macdonald and others; also, the latest novels and some luxurious illustrated works, among which La Neuvaine de Colette" is specially noteworthy. They are also the publishers of La Revue Hebdomadaire, which in history, travel, fiction and contributed articles on contemporary questions is a representative periodical of the inThe law publishers represented include L. La- tellectual progress of the day, giving an enormous rose & Forcel, who are strong in books and peri- quantity of information and entertainment in its 320 pages per week. Alfred Mame & Fils, of odicals in their special line, and also have some Tours, seem to have solved the problem of cheap, important publications in political economy; | perfect books, and show a large line of publica

tions in which school-books, juveniles, and religious books, prayer-books and missals predominate. They also display a number of handsome illustrated gift-books and works of art. Bélin Frères have educational and classical works, philology, geography, mathematics,

etc.

C. Reinwald & Co. devote themselves to natural sciences and philosophy, and publish French editions of Darwin, Haeckel, Vogt, Buechner, Broca and others; also, noted works on medicine, anthropology, archæology, etc. They also publish a monthly bulletin of the French book trade, already in its thirty-fifth year. H. Le Soudier shows a long list of educational works, chiefly translations from the German. Hachette & Co. have on exhibition a long list of well-known standard works in history and general literature, illustrated works and editions de luxe that are truly luxurious in every detail. Among the latter they exhibit "The Book of Ruth," "The Book of Joseph," "The Book of Esther," "The Song of Solomon," "The Capitals of the World," Emile Michel's "Rembrandt," etc. They also have Elisée Reclus' Géographie Universelle" in eighteen volumes; Perrot and Chipiez' "History of Ancient Art" in five volumes; Littré's " Dictionnaire de la Langue Française" in five volumes; complete sets of many of the best-known French authors and a long line of Greek, Latin and foreign classics. L. Hébert, successor to Alex Houssiaux & Co., displays artistically Coppée's " (Euvres Complètes" in ten volumes, with illustrations by Flameng; Balzac's Œuvres Illustrées," and illustrated editions of the complete works of Victor Hugo, A. de Musset and Molière. Edouard Rouveyre has a fine exhibit of art publications and of his bibliographical works, including Buchot's, Uzanne's and Dêrome's.

beautiful colored covers; "Memoires de Madame
de Staal;" and Bertheroz's "Femmes Antiques,"
with etchings from illustrations by Bouguereau,
J. P. Laurens, Hector Le Roux, Maurice Leloir
and other celebrities. No words can do justice
to these treasures which M. Terquem keeps
under lock and key, but will gladly show to all
who can appreciate them and handle them as
their luxurious "get-up" makes necessary.
The third room contains the historical and
theological publications of Victor Lecoffre, the
publisher of Catholic works and books of church
music; the illustrated works on the industrial
and decorative arts, published by Rouam & Co.,
most noticeable among which are "La Femme
dans l'Art," by Marius Vachon, a work written
for the glorification of woman and the influence
she has had on art, and the bound volumes of
the Revue des Arts Décoratifs, a monthly publi-
cation edited by Victor Champier.
Here are
also the publications of the Syndicat de la Presse,
including the great French periodicals, Revue
des Deux Mondes, La Gazette des Beaux Arts, La
Revue Illustrée, Le Monde Illustre, etc., and the
magnificent maps published by the French war
department. Various government publications
fill the adjoining rooms. Scattered through
the rooms of the French publishers' section
are exhibits of fine-art pictures, of printing,
binding, etc., which we shall describe in our
next article.

THE ANGLO-AMERICAN PUB. CO. AND
J. SELWIN TAIT & SONS SUCCEED
TAIT, SONS & CO.

TAIT, SONS & Co. have issued a circular dated July 25, in which they announce that the exceptional encouragement which they have throughout received from the trade in connection with their English copyright fiction, and the fact that they now as a consequence draw the larger portion of their new literature direct from Great Britain, have decided them to concentrate their attention more closely upon that branch of their business, and to make it, in fact, their special feature. For the better carrying out of this decision they have transferred their interest in Tail's National Library of Best 200 Books to a new corporation, specially organized for the purpose, entitled "J. Selwin Tait & Sons (Incorporated)," with adequate capital and other facilities for carrying out such a large and important work.

Before leaving this second room we must take special notice of the exhibits of the Cercle de la Librairie and of L. Conquet, two cases we have left until last as they demand and tempt more lingering notice. The publications of the Cercle de la Librairie are chiefly trade publications, bibliographical and literary works of special value to the bookseller. The " Catalogue de la Deuxième Exposition du Cercle" (July, 1881), containing ancient and modern engravings and etchings in exquisite reproductions, is in itself a very important publication. L. Conquet, the bibliophile's beau-ideal, shows in a small but artistically arranged case his choicest publications-books that in every detail are as near perfection as human ingenuity can attain to. Gérard de Nerval's "Sylvie," the daintiest book ever handled by the fastidious amateur, is here, with etchings in the text by E. Rudaux; Gautier's "Emaux et Camées," on India paper, bound by Ruban, one of the latest of the French artistic binders; and Ludovic Halévy's "Trois Coups de Foudre," illustrated from designs by Kauffmann, etched by T. de Mare. Among other works are "Monument du Costume," with illustrations by Freudenberger and Moreau le Jeune, drawn in 1775-1783 to illustrate the manners, customs and fashions of France in the eighteenth century; Champfleury's "Le Violon de Faïence," with thirty-four etchings by Jules Adeline; Alphonse Daudet's "Fromont Jeune et Risler Ainé," with Bayard's drawings, etched by F. Massard, and tastefully bound by Cham-brary of Best 200 Books. Both organizations bolle-Durn; Mme. de la Fayette's "La Princesse will, for the time being, occupy the same offices de Clèves," a sumptuous edition with etchings at 31 East 17th Street (Union Square), New by Lamotte; Louis Morin's " Vielle Idylle," in York.

With the view of adopting a title which shall the better serve to designate and advertise internationally the special range of their business. and also to avoid any confusion which would arise from similarity of title, the name of Tait, Sons & Company will hereafter be The AngloAmerican Publishing Company. This alteration will involve no change whatever in the directory, management, constitution or capital of the company, which will remain in all respects the same, with the exception of the change of name already noted.

The trade will, therefore, in future, address "The Anglo-American Publishing Company on all business hitherto transacted by Tait, Sons & Company, and "J. Selwin Tait & Sons" on the business connected with Tait's National Li
