Very shortly we must withdraw our offer of the new "Handy Volume" Issue of the ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA. We were able to offer to our customers and the public the new "Handy Volume" Issue of the Britannica at such phenomenally low prices only by arranging with the publishers for an enormous printing and by reason of this a very heavy reduction in manu facturing costs. All these contracts for paper, presswork, binding, leather, and so forth, were made before the war began. The sale has-been a success beyond the highest expectations.. It is a conservative statement that no such a sale of a single work, either in the number of volumes or in the total sales price was ever known before in the history of book publishing. Ve takejm'de in our achievement. We have placed in tens of thousands r6f homes a new edition of the most valuable work in the English language, the most useful, the most practical, and the most informed'We believe, and many distinguished educators have written to us to say, that we have done a distinct educational service. We wish we could have gone onselling this great work at this low price for years. That is impossible. So rapidly has the issue been subscribed for that the sets now remaining will soon be exhausted. The publishers now notify us that they cannot renew the present contract. So rapidly has the cost of production risen in the last few months that they cannot supply us with further sets at any thing like present costs. The price will have to be advanced from $11 per set for the lowest priced bindings to $19 per set for the highest price ; and there is no certainty that we can arrange for many more sets even at this price. The same sudden rise in prices which has occurred in many other lines of trade has come to the paper, printing and binding business. Paper has advanced between 60 and 70, morocco leather 502o, ink from 20 to 1503?, and other raw materials enter ing into the making of the Encyclopaedia Britannica much the same. All this is only part of a great wave of prosperity that has come to the United States. Prices in many lines have risen at an almost fabulous rate. A list is given in an adjoining column. Nor does this rise seem temporary. We seem entering upon an era of still higher prices and of rapidly expanding trade. The basic industry of the country, farming, is receiving high prices for all its products. A heavy congestion of freight rules all over the country. There is a shortage of cars, and of locomotives to haul them. Industry is humming. Twothirds of the factories of the nation are working overtime. Not in twenty years has the like been seen. AN OPPORTUNITY PASSING What is plain is that the opportunity to obtain the new edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica at the present prices will not be repeated. In some of the more expensive bindings exhaustion is already near; and in the most expensive, the full seal binding, hardly a hundrecTsets remain. We therefore give notice 'that in a very shprt time the sale will close, our offer will be withdrawn and tho Britannica will be pbtainable only at very much higher prices. There is still time to send for the handsome 130-page book described below, but we urge those who have been hesitating to for ward their orders at the earliest possible time. ;OliMr.fll. PRIGEf What This Vast Work Contains When it is said that tho new Eleventh Edition of tho Encyclopaedia Britannica is the most exhaustive summary of human knowledge ever prepared, in a single work, this carries Httlosuggestionof its vastrarige. It does not help much to'say that it contains iony-ono tnonsanq auicreni arucies. ft How Prices Have Risen Within a Year or 18 Months PAPER 60 to 10 f.

On Art Architecture and Music there is a total of 2937 different articles; on Chemistry 547; on Languages andWriting285; on Medicine and Surgery 644. The Britannica Is & splendid atlas, and tho total of its articles on Geography reaches 11,341. Tho number of articles on tho History of Nations is 6292: on the different literatures of tho world 4136. Abstruse subjects like Philosophy and Psychology roll up atotal ot 643 articles; Re ligion and Theology 3049; Mathematics 253. Sports and Pastimes show a total of 264 articles; Law and Political Science 1302: Engineering 419; Economics and Social Science 492. Needless to say all tho separate sciences are covered as completely as if you had separate text books for each; and in a far more compact and readable form. Biology, the science of life, has a total of 1886 arti cles; Geology, earth knowledge, a total of 740; Physics 285; Anthropology and Eth nology, covering oil our knowledge of man upon the earth, 458 articles. It is a highly practical work. Industries and Occupations aro covcrcdin 545 different articles; Military and Naval subjects in 320; Education in 172; Archaeology and AntiquU ties in 101. Just the mere text of tho new Eleventh Edition, printed in ordinary type would make three or four hundred volumes of average Book size; and at a dollar and a half a volume this would mean they would cost at least four or fivo hundred dollars that is, nearly ten times what the Britannica may be had ior in tho now "Handy Vol ume" Issue. But this does not nearly tell the story. You could not go to the biggest bookstore in tho world andbuy any thousand volumes. on oil these separate subjects and get any where near as complete and serviceable a -working library as the 29 volumes of tho new Britannica. Many of its articles are of considerable length, 50 and 100 pages and more, but the most of them are crisp, clear summaries telling the average person pre cisely what he or sho wishes to know on any given subject. mo new tieTtmn tamon u in tact a miracle or the sreateit o( llvlnir mlndi, but every page ot It bu compression and compactness, as it h ot complete ness and authority.

We supply the "Handy Volume" Issue of the new Eleventh Edition at one-third the prices of the larger-paged "Cambridge University" issue of. the same work. 2. You have the publishers' guarantee, and our own, that the volumes you have received are word for word, and line for line, the same as the "Cambridge University" issue, not an article or a single illustration omitted. 3.
