There Are Other Cyclopædias.

Granted you want an encyclopædia. Is the Britannica the best?
This is a vital question.

The Encyclopædia Britannica has cost more to produce than any other.
It is larger.

Its articles are written by the most eminent men in their own specialty, regardless of expense.

It is the standard encyclopædia of the world.

The standard and most voluminous encyclopædia must be the best. Don't you think so?

For Americans, is a reprint better than the original?

Yes; for it is cheaper.

Then it has all the original has and more.

It contains modern, American, Rand-McNally maps of the United States and of all the states and principal cities of the Union.

It is modernized for Americans.

Undoubtedly, a reprint is better.

And which reprint? for there are many.

The one printed the clearest, on the best paper, the best binding-the Werner edition.

The one with the latest maps, on first quality map paper, in colors - the Werner. The one that will best please the Bibliophile-the Werner.

More yet.

The Werner 5-Volume New American Supplement, just produced at a cost of $65,000 for authorship alone, supplies everything American that the original edition lacks.

It Americanizes the Britannica. Makes it American and cosmopolitan in the fullest sense of the word. Lifts the entire work out of the somewhat insular rut the bare original is in.

Completes it for you and me.

Some Interesting Facts.

An Ex-President of Yale University gives it as his opinion that the purchase of 3,000 volumes would not produce so good a working library as is furnished in the Encyclopædia Britannica alone.

The complete work of thirty volumes represents a library of 140 ordinary duodecimo volumes, each illustrated with two full-page engraved plates and 60 separate illustrations. Each page of the work contains as much type

matter as five pages of an ordinary octavo volume, printed in the usual style and type for library use. Taking the ordinary octavo volume of 600 pages

as a basis, there are in the Encyclopædia Britannica

18 volumes on Geography;

18 volumes on History;

15 volumes on Philosophy and Religion;

6 volumes on Medicine in its departments;

5 volumes on Law;

20 volumes on Industrial and Applied Sciences;

6 volumes on Mercantile subjects;

7 volumes on Agriculture.

6 volumes on Games, Music and Legends;

And whole libraries on Natural History, Biography, Fine Arts, etc.

It has been said concerning this great reference library: "If all other books should be destroyed, the Bible excepted, the world would have lost but little of its information."

For more than 100 years the Encyclopædia Britannica has been recognized as the highest standard reference library on all subjects.

No court of justice ever questions the authority of the Encyclopædia Britannica.

Clergymen are among the most competent Encyclopædia critics. all pronounce the Britannica the best.

They

Professional men and women everywhere testify to the superiority of the Encyclopædia Britannica.

Scholars and educators are not divided as to which is the greatest Encyclopædia. They all use the Britannica.

The New Werner American Supplement in 5 volumes is entirely the work of Americans - Americans of mark and of reputation.

They write on what they know most about.

They tell you the American of everything-the latest of everything-the last word of the world's progress and knowledge.

Just to jog your memory as to a few points out of many you might like to know about, here are a few of the subjects fully covered by the Supplement, not properly or not at all treated of in the original work-not so fully nor so authoritatively treated in any other Encyclopædia published:

Origin, Methods, and Advantages of Steel Frame Building.
