After six years of fast j living 1 felt my constitution broken ; down. L- put myself under the care of due of our best physicians. His treatment seemed to ao me no good, finaliylietsaid, at best I could live bpt a few years, that my bowels, kidneys and lungs .were all threatened with consumption and were fast wasting away in certain decay. I tried everything advertised, hoping to gain relief, finally I drifted into a state of melancholy and hopeless despair, suffering excruciatingly from dyspepsia, short breath and urinary catarrh. A year ago I saw Brown’s Iron Bitters . adver-. tised, I used them and they have acted like a charm. I soon began to enjoy dreamless slumber, and now I feel myself a man once wore, and have gained 54 lbs. since using the remedy, nor is my flesh flabby. I feel very strong and can hold out a 45 pound weight I truly believe that Brown’s Iron Bitters saved my life.” Oh, lq£ us pray That ram it may, For rain it will for a’ that.

The Cyclopaedia War. The month of July, iSSi, witnesses the completion of the largest and most important literary work this country and the century have seen. It is the Library of Universal Knowledge, large type edition, in 15 large octavo volumes, containing 10 per cent more matter titan Appleton’s Cyclopaedia, at less than one-fifth its cost, and 20 per cent mors than Johnson's Cyclopaedia, at a little more than one-fourth its cost. Chambers’s Encyclopaedia, which forms the basis of the Library of Universal Knowledge (the last London edition of iSSo being reprinted verbatim as a portion of its contents), is the laborious product [f ■ » °* r 'P est British and European scholarship. It has devcl- l |j \7 oped through a century of Cyclopaedia making; its various editions having beep many limes revised, in successive years, till it has come to be universally recognized, by those competent to judge, as standing at the very front of great aggregations of knowledge, and better adapted than any other Cyclopaedia for popular use. It contains such full and important information as the ordinary reader, or the careful student, is likely’ to seek, upon about 25,000 subjects in every department of human knowledge, Chambers’s Encyclopaedia, however, is a foreign production, edited and published for a foreign market, and could not be cx- ipa ejjas g *■ peeled to give as much prominence to American topics as (fjfc 6* \i £-& American readers might desire. To supply these and Wti A“ C xa> oilier deficienciesji large corps of American editors and writers have added important Articles 'upon About 15,000 topics, covering the entire field of human knowledge, 1 ringing the whole number of titles under one alphabetical arrangement to about 40,000. Thus the work is thoroughly Americanized, and the Library of Universal Knowledge becomes at ohee the latest and most complete Encyclopaedia in the field, at a mere fraction cf the cost of any similar work which . has preceded it. ’ •’ • ;: ; of the 15 volumes, complete, in extra doth binding, $15.00. In half 1 BB wW Russia, sprinkled edges, seo.oo. In half Russia; gilt fcop, $22.50. Ip full library sheep, marbled edges, $25.00. The superlative value and .importance of this great Encyclopaedia lies especially in the fact that it is brought within the reach of every one who aspires after knqwledge and culture. 11 is really a libra- g w *y c-L universal' knowledge. It brings a liberal fep? i P ij education easily within the reach even of every “ « *- 5 -' 41 ’**■" *■ “ *» 3 plowboy of the country and apprentice boy o: the city. Ever,' farmer and every mechanic in theiand owes it ter himself and to his chi 1 .ren that such a Cyclopaedia shall henceforward form a part of the outfit of Ims home. To the professional man, and every person of intelligence in every walk of life, a Cyclopedia is a necessity. Of course the old and wealthy publishers who have grown rich (it is said that the Appletons have made a profit of nearly tiro million dpi.lars on their Cyclopaedia) from the, sale of their high-priced publications are not pleased that their monopolies are broken and‘ their power overthrown. Of course the book agents and booksellers who have been used to getting from 40 to 60 per cent commission for selling these high-priced books are SIO,OOO Reward s^'^sss.-s^s: m w w on 15 per cent commission, though those who are not short-sighted discover that their own interests, after all, are identical with the interests of the people, and their real profits, in the end, are increased, by the immense sales which result from meeting the people’s wants. The majority of • booksellers, however, are better pleased to slander than to sell this and our numerous other standard and incomparably low-priced publications. But the Literary Revolution has always looked to the people, in whose interests it is, for its patronage, and it has never looked in vain, as our more than Boa 1 B. £\ , one million volumes printed last >(a M |I B £sk <Bf (Ch, yfi. year (this year being increased ” H two irxL 2 i4wi to probably more than two millions) abundantly prove.
