For Folks Who Read.

A great educator has said that if the ordi-
nary man would make it his business to un-
derstand thoroughly all that he read, even
though that all were little, he would become
possessed of practically complete education
for his walk in life. To read in an in,elligen,
fashion is as rare as the avoiding of other mis-
takes in this world. The reader who skins
merely gets into the vicinity Of fact and goes
around it-does not meet it-would not recog-
nize 1t If he met il again To get the worth
of ones reading is impossible if the reader
blnks at illusions which mean nothing TO him
instead of looking up new words and new
facts. 1t has not always been easy TO do this.
With the older reference works, the looking
up Of facts mean, long and often unfruitful
search.
With The Century before you you find in
stan,y, in just the right place, Just the one
word or fact you are looking for-there is
never doubt as TO its presence or its where
abouts The looking for it hardly interrupts
the course of ones reading; the finding of it
makes clear much that is TO follow. The pos
session and the use, intellgenly, of The Cen
fury in ones reading is as near to liberal ed
ucation as one can &c, nowadays without spe-
cial study courses.

For Busy Workers.

T. De Witt Talmage says of The Cen
tury:--
at is a great thing to have within reach
such storehouse of information. Instead of
wandering through LID aries TO find or miss
some important fact or discovery or discussion
or controversy, all you have to do is 20 recall
the frs, two or three letters of the subject you
are celebrating and put your hand on the
volume that contains all you want TO know.
For all the hurried and hard-worked thinkers
of the country, The Century Dictionary and
Cyclopeda and Atlas is rescue and rein
forcement."
A literary man accustomed to the US. of
books cannot but see the value Of The Cen
fury. But any man OF affairs can test its
worth to him in thorough and satisfactory
manner if he will look up the definitions in
his own business or profession. For instance,
let the doctor turn TO such words as fever, "
"operation:" the stock broker or banker to
put "call, " future" margin, " "priv-
lege, /" "op,ion :" the clergyman to Church, -
liturgy, catholic :" the engineer to "arch, a"
"wateT-supply, 'aqueduct;" and then let
him remember tia, every other field of inquiry
is covered with equal fitness and accuracy
Or let him open any of the other dictionaries
and encyclopedias at any word he pleases and
compare them with The Century. He will
often look in the older works and not find il {;
he will never turn 10 The Century in vain.
