War
The great bargain we of fer the new Encyclopaedia
Britannica, unabridged, complete, in a new handy form
at an unprecedented low price was all created before
the war, the preparations, contracts and purchases
made. We could offer this bargain, we could make
these prices, only because of huge purchases at very
low prices and great economies in manufacture. We
could not do it now; nor can we obtain any more sets
at anything like present prices.
After next Saturday you will have to pay from $11
per set to $19 per set more (according to the binding)
for identically the same work.
If you are thrifty, you will save this money ; if you
are careless, hesitating, you will lose it,
because you need the Encyclopaedia Britannica
in your home. Your family needs it; the children es-
Eecially. And if it is the right kind of a home you will
ave it there.
Remember, after you receive the complete
set of 29 volumes you have three full weeks
in Which to make up yourmind whether
you want to keep them.

The Tremendous Cost of the New
Eleventh Edition
It seems almost unbelievable to say that a million and a
half dollars could bo spent on any single set of books (espe
cially if these books were to be sold for a total of fifty or sixty
dollars). Only one work in the whole history of publishing
has ever cost so much and that is the new Eleventh Edition of
the Encyclopaedia Britannica.
It cost this enormous sum first of all because it is a work of
the highest authorities in every field of human knowledge. It
could have been compiled by hack writers for a tenth this
sum; but it would not have been the Encyclopaedia Britannica.
The contributing staff includes representatives from
81 different universities in 21 different countries, and from 65
other colleges, a total of over 700unlversityand college experts.
And all of these have won distinction in their especial fields.
The 1500 contributors furnished a total of over 40,000 articles.
Every one of these 40,000 articles had to be verified, edited,
compressed and trimmed into its allotted space. Thousands
of these articles were submitted to two or more experts for
revision and criticism.
It is this sort of patience and thoroughness andprodigal
outlay which has made the Encyclopaedia Britannica the one
work of its kind in all the world. If you buy anything else
you buy something inferior something cheaply made, just
to sell.
A Library To Be Proud Of
If you have a taste for a smartly kept home
whether large or small
if in that home you have a well-selected collection
of books whether it be large or small
if In your conversation you reveal a knowledge of
books and events and history
and it your children are bright and well-informed
you inevitably gain distinction in the eyes of youp
neighbors and your friends.
Towards all this the possession of the Encyclopaedia
Britannica contributes immensely. Everyone knows
that It is the greatest reference work in-the world
the highest authority-the last word.
From it you can cultivate as richly stored a mind
as roost people get from the finest university training
(and the odd thing to it is that the 41.000
articles of the Britannica form a mine of in.
teresting reading as well),
A dollar, with the order form adjoining, brings
you the complete work.

the better equipped you are for your work, or to face

The Encyclopaedia Britannica in the new Eleventh
Edition is the most complete and most up-to-date
source of information and self-education that exists in
any language nothing to compare with it. For 148
years the Britannica has been the standard and the
highest authority.
You have a chance to get it now at a wonderfully
low price and on the easiest possible terms.

What Every Woman Should Know
In these days of Woman's Clubs, Suffrage meetings, Better
Mothers, Better Babies, and Better Homes, the modern woman
must be far better "prepared" than the woman of former times.
But very few women have any real chance to gain a
thorough education or really to learn much. Not one woman
in 200 in the United States goes to college.
This is just why the Encyclopaedia Britannica has been
such a splendid uplift and aid to many brilliant women, and to
lots of others who just want to know a little more than they
do, Mrs. Kate Waller Barrett, President of the National
Council of Women, says that her children were very largely
brought up on the Encyclopaedia Britannica and that she her
self owes to it an immense debt.
In hundreds of women's clubs it has already become known
as an unfailing source of reference in debates and discussions.
Actually many women's clubs have purchased it.
Almost every woman in tho land can now own the newest
edition of the Britannica in the daintiest and most attractive
form in which this or any other encyclopaedia was ever issued.
And the volumes of the Britannica lend an unusual stamp
of distinction and refinement to every home in which they are
found.
A Miracle of Compactness
If vou are familiar with the older issue of the En.
cyclopaedia Britannica, you instinctively think of it as
a huge work in 25 to 35 volumes, occupying eight
feet or so on your bookshelves.
The 29 volumes of the new "Handy Volume" Issue
take up only 32 inches on the bookshelf and weigh
only about 50 pounds,
Yet every one of the 30,000 pages of the grqat
Cambridge University issue is nere, without
the abridgment of a line or a word.
In the handsome bookcase here shown you can
pick it up and move it anywhere you like (or put It
In your trunk and take it off to the country with you
if you like), . i
And each volume, printed on the beautiful India
paper, Is so light that you can hold it in your hand and
read for an hour with no sense of fatiguef
Never was any great work of reference-Issued In
such a compact andnandy form.
And the amazing thing of It Is that It actually costs
you only one-third the price charged for the larger
sized Cambridge University issue of identically the
same work.
See our guarantee below. An order form is in
the adjoining circle.
