The Largest Boon in The word.

The trustees of the British mu.
scum are in treaty for the purchase
of the largest book in the world.
Toward the close of the seventeenth
century the reigning emperor Of
China appointed an imperial COM
mission to reprint in one vast collec-
ton all native works of interest and
Importance in every branch Of lit.
erature. In the beginning Of the
following century the commission
ers completed their laboFs, and were
able to lay before the emperor a
very palpable proof Of their dill
gence in the shape of a compilation
consisting of 6, 100 volumes, entitled
"Kin ting koo kin too shoe tselh
ching" or can Illustrated Impe-
rial Collection of Ancient and Mod
ern Literature
Only "a small edition was printed
off in the first instance, and before
long the greater part Of the copper
types which had been cast for the
undertaking were melted down and
coined into cash. Accidents by fire
and by violence have considerably
reduced the numbers of copies Of
the imperial edition originally
printed, and it is believed that only
a comparatively few now remain
extant. The trustees Of the British
museum having become aware that
one such copy has lately been offered
for sale at Pekin, have entered into
negotiations for purchase, and it is
much to be hoped that they may
succeed in adding this rare and in
%teresting collection to the national
library.
