Tim Bcrlbner edition of the Encyclopedia
Britannica has been in my library some
years. I have found it accurate uud re
liable and fully illustrated.
The edition offered by Tim TBIBVKB Is
not abridged; but, In matter of faot, the
same work on good paper and substan
tially bound, besides having the additions
and revisions, American articles and maps
up to date. The additions are in the back
ot each volume and give the latest data on
statistics, together with history, scienco
and biography of living men, thus render
ing the work more desirable aud practical
as a book of reference tbau tho original.
That this work can be sold for $1.98 per
volume seems almost incredible, as i paid
Io per volume, or $1'J3 for mine, bouud in
cloth. U. 0, Hl.'OHES,
