A Great Success 



FOR 



The Marvels of the Universe 



was perhaps to be expected after the great interest shown in "The 

 Wonders of the World/' but not only do all the tens of thousands of 

 subscribers to that work seem to have welcomed the appearance of its 

 natural successor, but many thousands of new readers have been attracted 

 with the result that the First Part of "Marvels of the Universe" has 

 met with 



A Reception 



beyond the Publishers' most 



sanguine expectations. 



Every copy of the first large printing was ordered long before the day 

 of publication, and the Publishers have had the greatest difficulty in 

 providing the further big numbers required to meet the demand. 



No one can form more than a vague idea from an examination of 

 the First Part what the whole work wiU be like, but that it has given 

 general satisfaction as a first instalment is proved by the fact that 



The Demand for Part II. 

 has been just as great. 



This Part is now before the Reader, and he will see for himself 

 that it is quite as interesting as Part I. It will also be a further 

 indication of what good things are in store. 



Already the Publishers have gathered an abundance of excellent 

 material, and the field is so wide that they have every confidence in 

 being able to keep the work up to a high level until its completion. 

 The fact that it is being written by specialists who are also skilled 

 writers should of itself be an ample guarantee for the future.
