A limited number of rozolving cavab has been sent from London especially for subscribers, in China.

Black Edinburgh Edition) can he supplied with the Supple- mentary volumes, 11 in number, at 40 per cent discount if they subscribe now.

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 Encyclopædia Britannica up to date. An extraordinary demand for the. Bup- plement has made it possible to offor the 35 volumes for considorably less than the prices 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 a large reduction in manufactur ing cost, Subscribers in China are for the moment, on exactly the same footing as subscribers in England, but orders 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 am.
