Helps You to Remember 1t.

The great events of the past are closely related through, cause and effect with
each other and with the Present. No man can understand the Present who
doesn't know the Past. Does HE KNOW the past who reads in his encyclope-
da that the French Revolution, for example, began in 1899 and ended in 1895
or 1900 or 1904, with a list OF events loosely tied to various intermediate dates?
Assuming that he car remember any part of it while he is closing his book! A
few moments with RipuhS History of the Work., on the other hand, brings
clearly into view the causes and effects, as we'll as the events of the Revolution,
and photographs them nIeldy on the mind. ~
Exhaustive indexes bring every important name and event since history
began within immediate finding.
John Clark Rdpath, who is the greatest living American Historian, spent
a lifetime in preparing this great work. The publishers invested over a quarter
of a million dollars in Illustrating it and getting it ready to print.
Every nation, ancient, medieval and modern, from the beginning of cvi-
cation o 1897 is adequately treated. not in a dry catalogue of dates, but in
vivid, stirring sentences that bring back the past as a living, moving reality
Equal space is devoted to description of the beginning and development Of
nlankind-th makers of events distinguished from the facts of history. In
this respect
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1897-09-29
Ridpath's History Is Absolutely Unique.

The eight imperial volumes contain in round figures $500 double columns
pages, the equivalent of about 80 ordinary octave volumes of 500 pages each.
Nearly 1000 engraving, Reproductions, maps, chronological and race charts and
diagrams, many Of them in coorS, illustrate the text and constitute the most
extensive art gallery of history ever brought together.
The type is large and well spaced, the printing even and clear, the paper
clean and superintendent, and the bindings handsome and substantial.
The set has always been sold at prices running from $500 to $780,
according to binding. Over $4,000 sets have been sold at these prices They
could not be sold for leSsby ordinary nlethods-but we have taken AN ENTIRE

eral years ago she lived with a man
there named Sturlein, but later on it is
said she discovered that she was never
legally married to him and a separation
Immediately followed.
By dint Of hard work and economical
living, Mrs. Sturlein succeeded in ac-
quiring a considerab bic amount of prop
erty and money which is estimated to be
worth somewhere between $4,000 and
$4,000. No relative survives the de-
ceased, and as she left no will, her entire
worldly belongings will revert to the
state through the hands Of the public
administrator. A leading physician Of
Los Angeles, who has known the de-
ceased for years intimately. is also Of
the opinion that no relative is left 10

Sturlein, who is reported to have for
merly lived with the deceased, is pre-
pairing to lay claim to the estate, and
will probably carry the matter into the
courts. but it is very doubtful If he can
establish any legal right thereto from
the alleged fact that he was never le-
