elsewhere In this paper, under the title of “A 
Second Literary Revolution,” show very clearly, 
though very surprisingly, how It Is possible to 
make such an extremely valuable and costly Cy¬ 
clopaedia accessible to the masses at such trilling 
coat. 
To remove any possible Incredulity which might 
exist In the minds of some that this Is only a 
plausible scheme for getting a large amount of 
money In small sums from a great many Individ¬ 
uals, In return for books which might never be 
delivered, the publishers do not rennire any pay¬ 
ment whatever in advance. You may, if you 
please, simply send your order by postal card, 
and make no payment except upon delivery of the 
goods themselves, and after you have examined 
them and found them satisfactory. Orders should 
be sent to the publishers at once, In order to se¬ 
cure the special terms given during the month of 
August.
