The ..Parisian Dream City is pub
.lished by the same house tina It produced
the ever-famous Dream City of the
Worlds Fair at Chcs go, and the present
work is intended as companion volume
to that More than ten million copies of
the Chicago Dream City" were sold, sur
passing the circulation of any other book
in the world: and it is expected that the
BIPARTISAN Dream City will fully equal
the Chicago marvel We therefore ad-
wise all who desire to secure early copies
to place their orders at once and thus
avoid annoying delays. A full description
of the work, with coupon for ordering,
will be printed in our advertising columns.
We take it for granted that none OF
our readers will miss this opportunity to
visit Paris and take in, the Exposition
for the small sum of ten cents week.
