IS ABOUT TO BE WITHDRAWN.

The complete set of

THE TENTH EDITION

(London),

The Encyclopædia Britannica,

at half the Catalogue Price, for preliminary payment of

$20.

A FEW MORE DAYS WILL END THIS OFFER.

THE REVOLVING BOOKCASE.

It is a prime necessity of its very, oxistence that the Tenth Edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica should be a work of ample proporti ns, a great library in itself. This means shelf-room, and shelf-room is not always available.. Bu the especially constructed revolving bookcase of quarterol oak, minimises the spice occupied, and the volumes arrange themselves in it so that they can easily be reached. A limited number of revolving cases has been sent from London especially for subscribers in China.

TO POSSESSORS OF THE

NINTH EDITION.

Those who already possess the 24 volumes of the Ninth Edition, (The Authontic A. & C. Black Edinburgh Edition) can be supplied with the Supple- mentary volumes, 11 in number, at 40 per cont discount if they subscribe now, A limited number of copies of the Supplement is been shipped from London for distribution in China, Prices, order forms and Prospectuses may be obtained on application to Kelly and Walsh, Limited.

The Encyclopædia Britannica 10th Edition, 35 Large Quartos. 26,000 Articles, 2,000 Contributors, 31,000 Pages, 614 Plates and Maps, 11,400 Illustrations, 40,000,000 Words of Text.

CASH PRICES THE SAME IN

CHINA AS IN LONDON.

In order to effect a quick distribution of the 14th Edition, The Times' offers the work in China st London prices, sea-freight and landing charges paid as far na Shanghai

or Hongkong. Cheques should be made payable es follows ;—

To Hongkong and Shanghai Bank, to crailit of H E. Hooper," for either of the following amounts:---

For the Half Morocco Binding..

For the Cloth Binding..

For the Three Quarter Morocco Binding

$340

$415

$450

(This Binding is recommended both for its durability and beauty),

For the Full Morocco Binding

$580

Note: The foregoing prices can apply only to the first impression of the New Volumes which The Times' has prepared in order to bring the original 24 volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannics up to date. An extmordinary demand for the Sop- plement has made it possible to offer the 35 volumes for considerably less than the pricos at which they can be sold hereafter. More than 30,000 persons at home who already possessed the early volumes have subscribed for the supplement, almost all of them in advance of its publication, so that The Times' was enabled to make one consecutive run on the presses, and thereby to effect & large reduction in manufactur- ing cost. Subscribers in China are for the moment, on exactly the same footing an subscribers in England, but ordern should be registered promptly, as it will not be possible to guarantee indefinitely the acceptance of orders in China at the London' prices with the additional concession of 'free carriage from London to Shanghai an Hongkong.

MONTHLY PAYMENTS.

The convenient and well approved system of acquiring the Encyclopædia Britannica by monthly payments has been tried by The Times with great success, in all parts of the world, and it will now be extended to China. By this plan the subscriber pays £2u
