OR LIBRARY DEPARTMENT OF A. C. McClurg & Co., CHICAGO. RDERS for libraries-public, university, college, or school-filled with promptness and the greatest care. Our stock of miscellaneous books is very large and complete, and our special Library Department with a corps of trained assistants enables us to give the best attention to the peculiar demands of libraries. We are continually receiving large consignments of foreign books-those for public libraries coming free of duty—and we make a specialty of picking up both domestic and foreign books which are out of print or which for other reasons are difficult to secure. Our prices are very low and we shall be glad to correspond with librarians regarding their wants. WE LIBRARIES. E solicit correspondence with bookbuyers for private and other LIBRARIES and desire to submit figures on proposed lists.

APPLETONS' LIBRARY LISTS. YOR more than fifty years Messrs. D. APPLETON & Co. have been engaged in the publicaP tion of the choicest productions from the pens of distinguished authors of the past and present, of both Europe and America, and their catalogue of books now comprises several thousand volumes, embracing every department of knowledge. Classified lists of these publications have been prepared, affording facilities for a judicious selection of books covering the whole range of LITERATURE, SCIENCE, and ART, for individual bookbuyers or for a thorough equipment of any library. Lists A, B, and C are of books selected especially for School and College Libraries. The other lists are of books grouped according to subjects, and include the above. Single lists mailed free. Complete set, ten sections, 18 cents, to cover postage. Bound in one volume 340 pages, 8vo, 30 cents. Free to librarians. D. APPLETON & CO., Publishers, E beg to inform Librarians that we are doing rebinding work of every description for public libraries throughout the United States and Canada. Our flexible sewing insures strength, and perfect opening of old volumes. Our prices are low, and we shall be glad to correspond with Librarians regarding their wants. G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS, LIBRARY AGENTS. ESSRS. PUTNAM have peculiar facilities for handling all library business in Mtelligently and to the best advantage of their customers. Their Branch House in London (through which they receive English orders for American books) enables them to supply, promptly, English books, without the commission usually paid by American dealers. Their extensive miscellaneous and retail business makes it practicable to buy all books at the lowest prices, to carry a large stock of standard books in every department of literature, and to keep in touch with the current publications of the day. Their business experience covers more than half a century. LONDON: 2 Star Yard, Carey St. W. C. LEIPZIG: Hospital Str. 10. PARIS: 76 Rue de Rennes. GUSTAV E. STECHERT is the only importer in America, who employs no Agents, but has his own offices at: 2 Star Yard, Carey St. W. C. . 76 Rue de Rennes. . Hospital Str. 10. LONDON: where experienced clerks and assistants attend carefully to the orders from New York. That such orders can be filled better, cheaper, and quicker and with less trouble and work to the Librarian than if the books were ordered from European Agents, can easily be seen for the following reasons: I. I am in direct communication and account with all European publishers and dealers. II. Therefore I need not pay any commission to Agents, but always get the bottom price and often an extra discount. III. The Librarian saves the correspondence to various European firms and has to keep only one account. IV. As shipments are received Weekly: "Mondays from England and France and Thursdays from Germany," no order, large or small, needs to wait for accumulation of material. V. If books from England, France, and Germany are ordered, these books will congregate at New York from where they will be sent in one shipment, thereby saving the expense of packing, freight, consular fees, Custom House charges, cartage, etc. VI. Of all publications, appearing in consecutive volumes or parts, a list is kept here and abroad and continuations are sent as soon as published, without a reminder from the Librarian. VII. Being provided with a large Bibliographical material of all European countries and with a collection of Catalogues of second-hand books, I am enabled to give quotations on nearly all European and American publications, new or old. VIII. Special attention is given to the procuring of second-hand books and Sets of Periodicals, of which I keep a large stock on hand, constantly refilling by buying whole Libraries and by attending auction sales. IX. Binding is done carefully in Europe under supervision of my clerks, and pattern is kept of the binding of every first volume, so as to insure a uniformity of the succeeding volumes. X. XI. Periodicals supplied cheaper, quicker, and in better shape than if ordered by mail from American Publications at lowest rates. The following is a list of some Sets of Periodicals on hand: Geological Magazine. By I. Rupert Jones, H. Geologische Reichsanstalt. Jahrbuch. Bd. 1- und Journal of the Society of Chemical Indus- Proceedings and Transactions of the Phi- Reports of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. From the commencement in 1831 to 1893. London, 1835-95. 8vo. Parties going abroad will find it in their interest to make their headquarters at my offices at London, Paris, or Leipzig and make use of the services of my representatives. Books may thus be bought in any part of Europe and charged and sent to the New York firm, according to special arrangement. GUSTAV E. STECHERT, 9 East 16th Street, New York.
