A week is relatively a long time. Much can be accomplished '' fc]]l ' in seven days, but it is marvellous how quickly the weeks pass in mAm our busy, diversified modern life. Weeks have come and gone, /ff and thousands have accepted the LAST CHANCE to acquire the Y Jill "ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNIC A " for Five Shillings as the m ( first payment. .Only one more week remains, one week only-six BT, i ojaf working days, rj 1 SATURDAY, APRIL 5, JS THE LAST DAY. jfi\ It does not take a week to make up your mind' to buy someY j] Ny teing you know you ought to buy. The mere making up your Ug gj mind requires, first, consideration as to whether the thing in g=g* itselfis agoodarticleandwhetheritis the price asked. You VmM know, as well as everyone knows that the ENCYCLOPEDIA Wm n BRITANNIC Ais the greatest of all books. You knew this long \/V\ ago. Yonr friend, who has more money than you have, bought the rj ] book at the high price. You wanted to buy it, but couldn't | «M spare the money. You can now buy the same book at half !r—^ ~this price, because the "Daily Mail" has obtained from Lj I « The Times" the right to offer the book at the reduced price Wk W and for Five Shillings as the first payment. You may complete L/n v | your payments at the rate of 12s per month. You should make up \A j your mind to buy it now. This is your chance this week, your iMR chance to-day. The Daily Mail will enable you to accept the Ip^ chance to day, but cannot do so after another week. Time flies. LJO The opportunity will soon have passed, never to be renewed. A l®f railway is run on a time schedule. It is often "behind time" /S k in its arrival and departure. The time limit in the case of the LJI Five Shilling offer is fixed, definitely, positively, absolutely. There • ™^3 will be no days of grace. The offer will be closed. The only de- ' V Ipf lay, the only possibility of " behind time will be on the part of ]HJ X those who want the book, who appreciate the extraordinary bar;S gain and the extraordinary terms, but who failed to send their order 'jN quickly enough. The offer will positively be withdrawn on \^g| $i April 5. VERY HEAR Tl ~ T "THE TIMES." PRINTING HOUSE SQUARE, H LONDON. X3T [COPY.] .
