''An Entirely New Feature of a Thrilling Novel: Entitled, The Social War of the Year 1900; Or, Conspirators and Lovers. A Lesson for Saints and Sinners'' is an American utopian novel by Simon Mohler Landis, published in 1870 and adapted as a play in 1873. Commercially unsuccessful, it has been noted for its lack of literary merit and the repugnance of the ideas it advances. ==Author== Simon Mohler Landis (d. 1902) was a clergyman from Pennsylvania, pastor of the "First Progressive Church of Philadelphia" which he founded in 1865. Frequently bankrupt, he made a living through lectures and by selling inventions such as the "Patent Compound Male and Female Magnitude Syringe and Organic Bath". He styled himself a doctor, although there is no evidence that he ever received this academic degree. ''An Entirely New Feature'' is his only work of fiction. He also wrote a sexual education book, ''A Strictly Private Book on Marriage: Secrets of a Generation'' (1870), on account of which he was prosecuted for obscenity and jailed for five months. He recounted this trial in ''Prison Life Thoughts'' (1872) and remonstrated in publications against self-abuse, free love and doctors.〔
