About the Big Press
It cost $37,000—a fortune.
It will print, fold and paste from 8 to 64 pages
at a speed of from 6,000 to 12,000 an hour,
printed in colors.
The press is 12 feet high, 25 feet in length,
and 17 feet wide, hence making it 84 feet around,
and was built by C. B. Cottrell & Sons Co.
It was constructed especially for UNCLE
REMUS’S MAGAZINE, to provide for the tre
mendous circulation we are building up. It
really is two presses in one, as it is constructed
so that one of these can be stopped, and the
other started in 15 minutes, and keep right on
printing UNCLE REMUS’S MAGAZINE. Three
great rolls of pappr, 15, 30, 45 or 60 inches, go
in at one end, and come out at the other a com
plete magazine ready to be read at your fireside.
It hasvices ih^tn tli$ press of any* other
magazine, and it is bigger than any of their
presses. It is the only one of its kind south of
New York. It is run by electricity from a 40-
MAGNIFICENT MAGAZINE PRESS THAT WILL PRINT UNCLE REMUS’S MAGAZINE.
It is in a glass-covered press-room in tile Magazine’s handsome four-story building, and is now being tested for its run on the first issue. It
weighs 100,000 pounds; cost 137,000, and hfcfc required the work of 20 men 180 days in the grqat factory of C. B. Cottrell & Sons Cot, Westerly, R. I.

fir IwMr iWSnr Mm I I wiI] write for none
• m other than Ms own
Magazine. It is the crowning work of his noble career, one free from
enemy and enmity. Note the authority:
Andrew Carnegie, the great ironmaster, says:
“Joel Chandler Harris has given a helping hand to all the world.
He has won the hearts of all the children, and that’s glory enough
for one man.’’
President Roosevelt says:
“Georgia has done a great many things for the Union, hut she
has never done more than when she gave Joel Chandler Harris to
American literature.’’
The highest Southern editorial authority says:
“Such a magazine was never so badly needed as now in this
age of unrest, and adventure.” ,
Coming right down to our own fireeides, read the sentiment of one
of our new subscribers:

and do the next best thing—take Uncle Remus’s Magazine. Three
cheers and one yell for you. Long may you wave!
Most respectfully,
My y •R OTU What a fitting time for UNCLE REMUS’S MAGAZINE to appear! There were
■ ■ " ■ numerous delays. Our readers are so considerate as to have scarcely complained,
though all but consumed with eagerness to see UNCLE REMUS’S MAGAZINE. They appreciate the situation, and
we are grateful. They are to be repaid one-hundred fold by the greatness of the publication. Five long weeks were
we delayed in transportation of the mammoth press. We know also our readers are no more eager to see the Magazine
in actual life than those of the management, some of whom have wrestled with the proposition for Over two years.
Never before was a publication started like UNCLE REMUS’S MAGAZINE. Away last October our department
were organized and started on a rock foundation. In fact, the great proposition had been taking shape in far-seeing
Southern minds for years. We are ready to give you a great magazine—really a $3.00 publication for $1.00. Your
subscriptions are asked for the following reasons: First. Subscriptions are the vital test, and UNCLE REMUS’S
MAGAZINE deserves one-half million. Yours will be a direct aid. Second. The South, through UNCLE REMUS’S
MAGAZINE, wants to show the world a publication second to none. Hence an appeal to your loyalty. And third. You
need it in your home for it will be interesting to your whole family.
E L J9 tOt /DCODffDJTDg This means a whole lot to you, but you realize this from
Vff/lfl g the way they came pouring in last week from all over the
country. We have now Charter Subscribers in twenty-five states, Just use the blank opposite and enclose a dollar for
a year’s subscription, and in due time you will receive the certificate. Do not be impatient. Enough will be prepared
to go all around. Tell your friends about it. Get them to send a dollar for a whole year’s subscription, and get the
certificate. Or get them all to pay you a dollar each and 'send us the money and their names written plainly with post
office address, and we shall send you a cheek embodying our best offers for your appreciated services. Don’t forget
as you go along that our field is everywhere, and wherever the sun shines and Brer Rabbit runs, we need agents. We
are just starting our second agents’ cash money prise contest. Our outfit is free for the asking, and if you can’t act,
get some one in your community started earning big money with a good chance in the contest. It is a big, honorable,
money-making proposition we hand you for the asking. Only be careful that we have no agent in your community.
Our active workers receive our protection on their territory.
