The Greatest Minds Now Living
Made the New Encyclopaedia Britannica
For nearly a century and a half, tho ENCYCLOPAEDIA
BRITANNICA has been not merely the greatest work of refer
ence in any language, but It has in each generation represented
the highest scholarship and learning and literature of its time.
In the preparation of the various editions, and especially
the last, three or four millions of dollars have been paid to tho
most eminent men of science and writers and teachers to
create this incomparable work.
A list of distinguished contributors would include practically
all the great names in science and learning among English
speaking peoples for tho last six generations, and many emi
nent men of other nations as well.
Here is one bit of evidence. Everyone knows that tho
Nobel Prizes 4feach amounting to over $40,000) are the blue
ribbons in the' world of science and letters. It is indicative of
tho thoroughly international character of tho new Eleventh
Edition of the ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA that seven of
its contributors have been Nobel Prize winners.
These include Lord Rayleigh, England; Dr. Wilhelm
Ostwald, Germany; Sir J. J. Thomson, England; Prof.
J. H. Van't Hoff, Germany; Sir Ernest Rutherford,
England; Prof. J. D. Van Der Waals, Holland; Prof.
' H. A. Lorentz, Holland.
Just a few others of the dUtlnsralabed contributors Include
Dr. Atfred Russel Wallace, co-dlicoverer of the "Darwinian"
tbeorytLord Bryce; Sir Geo rsell.Danvln-ernlnent mathematician
and ion of Charles Darwin Sir William Orookes i Sir Edwin Ray
Lankestert Sir Archibald Gelklej Sir Robert Ball; Sir James
Dewar; Sir William M. Ramsay Dr. Fridljof Hansen; Dr. Max
Verworn, and the poet Swinburne.
When you read an article in tho ENCYCLOPAEDIA
BRITANNICA, you have always full confidence that it is written
wjth the highest authority, that all of its statements are true,
that it represents tho latest word upon the subject treated.
A single dollar paid now brings you tho complete work.
Seven days remain seven working days.
One week from to-day ends our sale of the new "Handy Volume" Issue of
the Britannica at phenomenally low prices.
This sale has been a landmark in the history of American publishing. It means
the sale of a greater number of volumes in the same space of time than has
ever before been known.
We are proud of our achievement. We wish the sale could continue indefi
nitely. That the war has made impossible.
When we made our arrangements with the publishers of the Britannica for
this new issue, we thought we had contracted for a sufficient number of sets
to last for a long time to come. But the public was quick to realize what a
genuine bargain they had before them.

A week ago we gave notice that the supply of sets was nearing exhaustion
and that our present offer would have to be withdrawn. This has resulted .in an
enormous number of orders, which may bring the end sooner than we anticipate.
We hope that our friends who have sent their orders will realize that wp are
doing our very best to ship tho volumes promptly, but wo shall ask a little patience
if they do not arrive on tho day,they aro expected.

The Colossal Sale of This Work
The first edition of tho ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA
appeared nearly a century and a half ago before the colonies
had revolted, when Pitt was Prime .Minister and George the
Third was King.
In this century and a half cloven different editions have
been published, and in their making tho greatest minds of this
century and a half have been engaged.
Sir Walter Scott wrote for the Third Edition; Macaulay,
Do Quincey and hundreds of other famous men, for later
editions. To write for the ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA
long ago became a mark of distinction.
All this naturally required a huge outlay. For tho Seventh
Edition (1830) over $600,000 was spent for tho editorial work;
for tho Ninth Edition, one million dollars; and for tho new
Eleventh Edition, $1.500,000.
No other work In all the world has Involved tbe outlay of such
enormous sums. The total for all the eleven editions, for editorial
preparation, paper, presswork and binding, would probably far
exceed tto ooo.ooo.
And of no other work In tbe world, with tbe single exception of
the Holy Bible, have so many copies been sold. And by far tha
larger part has been In the United States. George Washington
was owner of a set, and practically every presidentislnce.
The grand total of sets sold, for all editions, In all the English
speaking countrlesof the earth, would be somewhere over a million
sets, or a total of around twenty-two million volumes. Thlsllslmore
than in all tbe vast national libraries of London, Paris, Berlin, New
York, Washington, all massed together.
It is this colossal sale which has alono made possible the
huge expenditures required to make, and re-make, the EN
CYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA from generation to generation
what it has been for now 148 years, the incomparable work,
without a rival in any language. i
And a SINGLE DOLLAR now brings yon the complete, new,
copyrighted Eleventh Edition.
