 bottom of the page. 

 Being new every 

 word is in its proper 

 alphabetical order. 

 It is complete and 

 unabridged. The 

 printingof this work 

 on thin India Paper 

 is the greatest inno- 

 vation in the history 

 of book making, fhe 

 exclamation of every 

 one is; "Why has it 

 never been done be- 

 fore ?" The old-style 

 Dictionary m e a s- 

 ures nearly 6 inches in thickness, and weighs 

 from 12 to 15 pounds. Printing thesame work 

 from the same plates on the beautiful India 

 Paper reduces the bulk to only 1'- inches in 

 thickness and the weight to within 4 pounds
