of the Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia and Atlas, very latest edition, and the sets are now ofiered at half publishers prices, with the addb
tional privilege of small monthly payments Usually, when books are sold on the instalment plan, regular prices are charged and the volumes
are delivered one at a time as paid for Then comes the aggravation of wanting to look up some subjects only to find that it's Jn a volume yet to be
delivered Not so with this offer The entire work is sent to your home, or office, upon an insignificant first payment and there are no bothersome
collectors to cause you annoyance You remit by mail, monthly An ideal way to make your home a "Century Home" A home nowadays without
its Century, is like the play of "Hamlet without a Hamlet," as an enthusiastic owner of the work remarked
The Bee extends a general invitation to any and all who read this announcement, no matter where they may reside, to send for specimen pages
and full particulars, via corner coupon above This Is the simplest way, and it puts you under no obligation whatever The specimen book is made
up of pages and maps from the volumes themselves, and, as it may be had for the asking, we will only emphasize the worth of the Century, by point
ing below to a few of those in Omaha and elsewhere, who own and use it The specimen book will tell more than it is possible for us in this announcment
Our Guarantee:
The Bee guarantees that each subscriber
to The Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia
arid Atlas through this offer will receive the latest edition of this work, and the same looks in every
particular jm per, printing, binding, etc. that cost double when ordered direct. There is only one Cen
tury Dictionary and Cyclopedia and Atlas, and this is it. This offer is genuine.

INFORMATION CONCERNING THE CENTURY AND OUR
OFFER WILL BE FURNISHED FOR THE ASKING BY ,
HAD THE CENTURY been printed on the same size pages and on
the same plan as the ordinary encyclopedia, the information con
tained in these large, handsome volumes, would have required forty vol
umes, This is not a hasty statement, but based upon exact computation,
The imprint of The Century Co, is a guarantee that the volumes arc as nearly perfect, as modern
machinery and expert bookbinders can make them.
No matter how many books a library may possess, there's a big vacancy if The Century is not
among them,
