THE LAST OF A GREAT OPPORTUNITY.

The enormous sale of the “Library of Famous Literature’’ iu New Zealand has exceeded anything hitherto known in the history ox bookselling. Not a work for pedants or dry-as-dust scholars, it makes its appeal to the laigcst public, in particular to the homo and family circle, to busy men and women whoso opportunities for making acquaintance with the world’s great literature have be n limited, and to those interested in the training and edueali n of tho young. It is at once a library of the most entertaining reading and a library of the best reading which the world’s literature' may afford. Those who subscribe now may secure this cpoch-m.-iking work at a reduction of fifty per cent, from the regular price, end, furthermore, may receive the complete work, the entire twenty volumes sent all at one time, upon the preliminary payment of ten shillings. Bun to take advantage of this opportunity, it is necessary to act

immediately, for the edition is almosj exhausted, and on Tuesday, September t, the offer must bo withdrawn. The order form, which appears in another column, should be cat out and posted to-c.ay—to-morrow may be too late. Carriage Cost of the “Library of Earn ous Literature.” Many inquiries have been received with reference to the carriage charges on tho “Library of Famous Literature.’’ Tho weight of tho work is about 851b5., and the charge for carnage is 3s 9d from Wellington to any port m New Zealand. The cost of carnage from the nearest port to inland points may e ascertained upon application to the nearest railway station. Arrangements for Acceptance of Late Orders.
