Perhape you say that you have got along without it for a long time. That is just what your grandfather probably said about the telephone. Can you afford to do without it any longer? \Who would want to do without running water or telephone service after once having them, even if his home had been without them for years before? Practical, everyday peqple who have used the Bri- tannica 3 How did we ever get along withowt the new Britanwica!" Or t ';l it *The most wsgful thing that ever came inlo the house." A Many-Sided Service The Britannica differs from other utilities in being useful and nécessary in more ways than any other one thing you can have in the house. It gives you the benefit of the best expert advice in_every field and on every subject. Britannica service makes you more efficient. It helps you do your own work quicker and better—it is concentrated, stored-up energy, & stoge-house of live, valuable information, a true “power-house.”” Because it supplies you with the meas of saving time, trouble and energy. ‘The Britannica_puts service expert advi as the tam connect with your physician. You need it for the unforesesn as well as for the countless everyday thingé¢hat you know you want help on. Al the difficulties that can present themselves to you are problems other people have had to meet. Men and women the world over have worked, each of them for years, scene of them their whole lives, to solve these problems. Their experience is in the Britannica for you to profit by. They are at your call when you have the Britannica. For $1 down and 10 cents a day for a few months you may own this wonderful service. It is as if for that small sum you could call by telephone the best authority or expert in the world to answer any question that came up, to give you advice on any sub- ject you wanted help ool Do You Want Help in Your 's Worl You can get it in the Britannica just as many other people have done. For inwtance, a North Carolina cotton broker said that the article on Cotton was worth the price of the whole set. A New York lawyer got just the information he needed in a lawsuit about iron and steel. He couldn't find it anywhere elee or get it from his client who manufactured car-couplers. A manufacturer of flavoring extracts learned from the Britannica enough about his own business to save the, cost of the whole set. He end el montioned in IMs ph poid ot lnu(h:n.n-lfl o --dunudnl-wm). Do You Want Help at Home? Planning a house or remodeling one, studying decora- tion or ventilation, you get expert advice and valuable suggestions from the Britannica. FEqually useful is what you will get from this same wonderful, all-around service on the care of babics and children, food, diet, cookery, rules for health, directions for first aid to the injured, study aids and supplementary reading for school boys and girls and for young men and women in college. An owner of the Britannica, who was born in Denmark, says: “In my country instead of ‘encyclopaedia’ we way ‘familjebok,’ that is “family book." The Britannica is an ideal ‘family book." * Improvements in Service Other utilities have been improved, cheapened and made more conveniént by long and gradual processes, #0 that we hardly notice the change. The setvice of the Britannica has been improved wonderfully fast in the last few years. The' new eleventh edition with. more in it and of better quality has been sold right along at a lower price than previous editions; and quality and quantity considered, at a lower price than apy other encyclopaedia. Now the jmore convenient and compact ‘‘Handy Volume' fissue of the néw edition is offered for 649, less than the FREE BOOKLET COUPON We will gladly send both, if you want them. SEARS, ROEBUCK AND CO., Chicago. ut the “Handy Volume' Adaress. . .. Britannica big-volume form. It Is Three Times as Easy to Buy and just as valuable—because it contains every- thing in the set that costs three times as much. The Utility is More Usable The new Britannica is the first encyclopaedia to appear In a form that is not repellent, awkward and in- convenient. The word "‘encyclopaedia,” like the phrase “unabridged dictionary," probably brings to your mind's eye a picture of a heavy, cumbersome volume or shelf after shelf of such volumes. The “Handy Volume' Britannica, printed on India paper, light, thin, strong and opaque, changes all that. The volumes are only an inch thick and the page is only 8] inches high and 64 inches wide—not as big as a magasine page, instead of being 2 big as the page of an unabridged dictionary. A “Handy Volume" weighs only 31 cunces (1 Ib. 502.). That is a good deal less than the average weight of a novel. It is about one-sixth the weight of a volume of the encyclopaedia printed on heavy paper and with the old-fashioned, awkward, big pages. But everything in the big, awkward volume is in the light, attractive “Hendy Volume'® which w%' 1t is exactly as useful because it has the full 100% of the contents of the bigger set, and much more usable because in smaller compass. . __} (A ke cwoviond by Sears.
