Small Savings That are Certain to Re
turn Large IntsrsAt
There is widespread idea that books
are costly luxuries, and that only those
possessed Of abundant means can afford
to be the owner Of works covering a
very wide range of topics. Hence many
men, young rs we'll ss old, who are
desirous Of educating themselves, are
prevented from 80 doing simply be.
cause it is impossible for them to
spare the money needed for obtaining
the necessary books. 1t is quite true
that the possession of complete
library involves large expenditure,
which is beyond the reach Of persons
OF humble means. But it is fact that
the ability to educate ona's self does
not depend upon large expenditure for
books At best an education is but an
epitomization Of the knowledge of 9TH
ers, and does not involve original re-
search except ia few cases. To OBJ
tain such an epitomiz4tion does not
necessarily involve detailed study of
all the works upon any desired topic,
aimee this has already been done by the
best scholars, the results OF those la
bors are confined in those great con-
densations known as encyclopedias.
The encyclopedias is the poor mans
complete library. In it is the concen-
trated wisdom Of the best minds the
world has ever seen. 1t is authoritat-
i've and complete.
The amount required in order to OBJ
tain possession Of that greatest Of all
encyclopedias, the Britannica, is so
small that no one can plead poverty as
reason for not purchasing it. The in
significant sum of 10 cents day can
surely be laid away by anyone who Ia
regularly employed, no matter how
small his wages, and yet that is all
that Is needed beyond the first cash
payment.
A little self-denial 10 all that is nec-
assary, and it will prove a literal cast
ing of bread upon the waters, for no
money is so well spent or so certain of
returning large interest as that de-
voted to obtaining an education.
THE TRIBUNE invites every working
man in the city to call at the encyclo
pedia headquarters, 437 Spruce street
aud examine this work, which is put
within their reach for less than one
fourth the price heretofore asked, and
uDon the unequallsd terms of 10 cents a
day.

widened and deepened.
About seventy-hve volumes have re-

many of these are of a substantial ma

1t is the desire of the management to
open the library On Saturday evenings

and it is hoped that all friends will in.

were in fine form, and both dill splendid
work. Neither was batted much. Roa.

hits in the second inning. But for that
stroke of good luck and good batting the

to look like the home boys would win
out, but those hopes were blasted by
most unfortunate misp.ay. McFarlan

caught between the bases. McFarlan
thought the hit to Boyd WAS a fly and he
was trying to put himself safe on first.

before run could be gotten in.

lowed by o scratch hit by Crockett.

third. Anderson hit to left, Meara took
o base on balls and each Of the men got
an extra bag on wild throw to first by
