India Paper new

Encyclopaedia Britannica in the entire world that is still unsold IS RIGHT HERE in America This great work, written and 'edited by the scholars of the world, is the accepted" international authority on all branches of knowledge. Consequently, it has a large sale in every civilized country. But of all the sets printed on the famous India paper, the only ones in the world still available are the few thousand now being sold in this country. And these will ' soon be all gone a few week at the outside will see the very last set sold. Thousands of sets were sold in Great Britain. Today it is not "possible to buy the Britannica in that country except at secondhand and at whatever premium is put upon it.

Every set offered in Australia is gone. South Africa is "sold out." ' India is "sold out." Japan, where more sets of the Bfritannica were sold than of any reference work in any language, is "sold out." Argentina, which led all LatinAmerica in sales of the Britannica, is "sold out" In Canada, the only sets that can be purchased must be sent from the United States. You have the opportunity fQ W to acquire one of these last sets of the Britannica printed on genuine India paper. But only for a few weeks longer at most because the remaining sets are selling fast Orders are coming in from all parts of the United States and Canada at an increasing rate from day to day. If you lett this chance past, you will never have another to buy this world-famous work printed on the beautiful India paper. It is NOW or never if you want a set. More than 175,000 sets have already been sold in America only a small fraction of the entire stock remains. You cannot delay and expect to get a set. Therefore we urge you to act immediately, i No one should buy the Britannica unless he is convinced that it would be useful to him. And in your case YOU are the one to decide how much this Library of Knowledge would help you in your busmesst or work,

You can see sets and leave orders at : Summers Pharmacy Hohman Street, near State

just as it is helping tens of thousands of others. This great work leads to the highway of Success it not only gives you practical information on any subject, but it increases your efficiency, broadens your point of view and employs the scope of your activities. It has a dollars-value because the knowledge it gives you increases your earning power. You need the Britannica for a hundred and more reasons. You certainly owe it to yourself to find out all about it before you order it. And if you then decide that you want it printed on beautiful India paper, N'OWT' is the time to buy it 1M J VV at the specially attractive price at which these very last sets in the world printed on ' India paper are offered. You are not asked to pay cash for it only to get your order in at once with a first payment of one dollar. You can pay for it in a limited number of convenient . monthly amounts of as low as $3 for the cloth binding. And you have the use of the books (29 volumes) while paying for them they will be shipped as soon as your order is received. But you must act promptly. Every day's delay lessens your chance to own one of these very last sets of the Britannica printed on genuine India paper. You must buy it "VTiAT Jor Never!
