The Nation, New York : 



As an Encyclopaedia of American interests for American 

 readers it is undoubtedly the best and fullest in existence. 



The Sun, New York : 



As it stands, The New International is the most helpful 

 Encyclopaedia in English that we have seen. 



Hamilton Wright Mabie: 



I have found The New International Encyclopaedia ready 

 to answer all my questions and give me all the information I 

 ask. The most careful person need not fear to trust it 

 implicitly. It happily combines scholarly exactness of 

 knowledge with simplicity and interest of statement. 



William R. Harper, D.D., Pres't University of Chicago : 



I have had occasion to use The New International Ency- 

 clopaedia. The articles I have consulted are well written 

 and show evidence of a thorough and satisfactory grasp of 

 the subject. The name of President Gilman as chief editor 

 guarantees that the work has been thoroughly done. 



An entirely new work. Not a revision of, nor based upon any existing work. Every 

 subject completely, exhaustively treated down into the year 1903. Comprehensive, accu- 

 rate, trustworthy, impartial, and intelligible. The most com- 

 petent specialists have contributed to its various departments. 



The advance sales have already exceeded $1,000,000. 

 Over 700 public libraries have purchased this 

 Encyclopaedia. 



It is not a Dictionary but a perfect Encyclopaedia 



worthy of its name. 17 Royal Octavo volumes. More 

 than 16,000 pages. 65,000 separate articles — double the 

 number found in any other encyclopaedia in the English 

 language. 100 full-page coaxed lithographs. 600 full- 

 page engravings. More than 7,000 illustrations. Every- 

 thing arranged for quick reference by busy men 

 and women. 



The New International, now practically complete, 

 is still offered at a special introdvctory price, so low

and on terms so easy that every book-loving indi- 

 vidual may possess it and not feel the outlay. 



There is a host of reasons why The New 

 International Encyclopaedia is best for 

 American readers, but it is impossible 

 to present them in an advertisement 

 We have therefore prepared an 80 

 page book containing handsome 

 illustrations and maps, and 

 fully describing this mon 

 umental work, which ^&
