** The People’s Library ” combines two great advantages: Comprehensiveness anil Cheap¬ 
ness. It contains works upon all topics which the popular tasle might reasonably be expected to 
embrace. Among its eminent authors are: 
Anthony Trollope, 
Bulwee, 
Miss Strickland, 
William Black, 
Macaulay, 
Charles Reade, 
Samuel Smiles, 
The Publishers offer It at a price which is far below the aggregate price of the volumes of which it is 
composed. No other selection of books presents so varied and so large an amount of good reading 
matter, for the money, as The People’s Library. Cheap as it is, owever, it must be beyond the 
means of many individuals who would gladly avail themselves of its advantages; and accordingly 
the Publishers suggest that in such cases the co-operative plan of purchase can be adopted. Tn every 
Village and Country District clubs can be formed, so that each subscriber can have, for a small 
investment, the free use and part ownership of a library of one hundred volumes of instructive and 
entertaining reading. The People’s Library provides for the diffusion 01 useful knowledge. It 
supplies a demand that the intelligence of the people has created; it is a coadjutor of the public 
schools; its tendencies are elevating; its tone is pure. It carries the possibilities of mental culture to 
the most remote districts. It is a valuable acquisition to the Family, literary Societies, and 
Associations. Price, $100.00 per Set.
