Tn l. New Webster. —Webster’s Internatioaal Dictionary is the book wibli is destined to go into every library, every public school, every household where American literature is received and where the English language is studied. The publishers have spent more than a quarter of a million dollars in bringing this work out in its unabridged, revised, enlarged and authentic form. It now takes the name “International,” and this is Intended to emphasize the fact that the language of the mother country now encircles the globe. . 4 Every page has been treated as if the book were now published for the first time. The claim of the publishers is that it retains that excellence in which has made Webster the safe and familiar authority, to which judges, journalist, scholar, artisan and man of business refer, and that in etymology, pronunciation, citations and pictorial i’-n-tratimrs it carries to greater perfection the merits of its predecessors. We believe that it abundantly justifies these modest claims, and that, as a comprehensive popular dictionary, it is likely to retain the pre-eminence which has loDg been held by “Webster’s Unabridged.” No dictionary can be final, but for the ijiext 25 years the “International Dictionary” must be accepted as the best work of its kind in the English language.— Bosion Herald, Sept. 28, 1890.
