We have purchased (because it Is just the thing- we have needed) the Columbian Cyclopedia Library, con sisting of the Columbian encyclopedia, which is also an unabridged dictionary thirty-two volumes of convenient size neatly bound, four volume3 of thean nual cyclopedic review, lour volumes of current historyfor 1896, one Columbian atlas and the neat convenient revolving oak cas ewith glass doors. From the evidence obtained we find that some part of this work is placed In the best private and public library In this country an dabroad, for the reason that they cover a field relative to the past, present and. future progress and achievements of the human race not attempted by others. The plan is original, and the work throughout Is carefully and ably written. Current history contains 220 pages. Is Issued two months after the close of each quarter, this length of time being taken to reduce all information received to be an absolutely reliable and authentic basis. If these are kept on file, this magazine will prove a permanent and invaluable record of all Important movements in political, social religious, literary, educational scientific and industrial affairs. The magazine will be lndispensible to all people who have encyclopedias, as It will be needed to keep these works up to date. To those who do not own encyclopedias it will be doubly valuable as their source of information is more limited. About March of each year the four volumes of current history are bound Into one volume, known as the Annual Cyclopedic Re view. There are now four of these bound volumes covering yearsl892-3-4 and 5. The work has for endorsers and subscribers in this city and state such people as Mr. Gere, edltor-Inchlef of the Lincoln Stale Journal., Hon. Joe Bartley, state treasurer, Hon. W. J. Bryan.
