The Ame7 c0n Reprint of tie En-
cHc3ODeHiu britannica.

We wish to call the attention Of the readers
and thinkers of our city to this grand work. No
work of its kind stands higher in the estimation
of scholars than the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Its great cost was the only hindrance to its gene
raj use. American readers generally could not
afford to pay ten dollars per volume for twenty
one volumes. And until the work was reprinted
in the United States we were obliged to- content
ourselves with its possession in few of our lead
ing Libraries.
The work is now furnished in the American Re-
print at about one half its original cost and PEI:
feet in all its parts every word cut, illustration
map and plate being honestly and faithfully re-
produced.

Col. Z. b. GRAY, Agent for Reprint of ENCY-
CLoP.EDIA BRITANNICA,
DEAR SIR: The opportunity you have given
Us to compare the three editions of the ninth is
OF: the Encyclopedia Britannica-yiz., the
Original English Edition." the American Re
print" by J. NJ Stoddart Il Co., and what is call
ed the "Scribner-Hall Edition"-has enabled US
to discover the following facts:
inferior to the Original in the letter press pa
per and binding.
3 1t does not give the full text of the English
Edition." and in some instances the omissions in
text are such a character as to teach error. Es-
pecially is this seen in the article ANATOMY,
5. The plates do not agree with the Original"
most of them being smaller. These reductions
in some cases being made, and the text descrb-
ing the plates not being changed, a correct idea
of the size of the plants (see article "Botany")
cannot be obtained.
t. The marginal references, il many instances,
are so bound into the backs of the volumes as to
render them quite useless.
5. The maps vary from the "Original," show
ing that they not ''from the same" but from
quite inferior, plates. Notably is this the case
in the maps of Cornwall and Cumberland, i'll
which the fine-line engraving showing elevations
is entirely omitted.
6. SO many serious detects occur in this ''Scrib
ner-Hall Edition" that we do not hesitate to say
that the guaranty given that we getting the
work, both in letter press and illustrations, like
the English edition." is not being carried out in
good faith. In other words, we are not receiving
what we contracted for.
So far as we have examined the american
Reprint" published by J. M. Stoddart & Co., it
is a faithful reproduction in subject-matter OF
the original text, maps and plates. 1T is well
printed on excellent paper, is well bound, and is
in better form for the shelves and ordinary hand
ling than quarto.

II is q most agreeable dressing, which
is st once harmless and effectual. for
preserving the hair. It restores, with
the gloss and freshness of youth, faded
or gray, light, and red hair, to rich
brown or deep black, as may be desired
By its use thin hair is thickened, and
badness often though not always cured.
1t checks falling Of the hair immedi-
ately, and causes a new growth in all
cases where the glands are not decayed;
while to brashy, weak, or otherwise
diseased hair, it imparts vitality and
strength, and renders it pliable.
The VIGoR cleanses the scalp, cures
and prevents the formation of dandruff;
and, by its cooling, stimulating, and
soothing properties, it heals most if not
all Of the humors and diseases peculiar
to the scalp, keeping it cool, clean, and
soft, under which conditions diseases
Of the scalp and hair are impossible.
As g Dressing for Ladies' Hair
The VIGoR is incompatible. It is color

will not soil white cambria. 1t imparts
an agreeable and lasting perfume, and
rs an article for the toilet it is economi-
cal and unsurpassed in its excellence.
