AT MUCH LESS THAN WOODCUTS.

Direct Reproductions from Prints, can be printed on an ordinary Press.

The cost of preparation varies with the size and quality of the subject; but it is, in all cases, below the price of woodcuts-the difference becoming more striking, the more complicated and difficult the design. The diversity and variety of illustrations make it necessary for us to estimate on all work ordered, instead of having a price list. The figures under each cut in our circular will enable our customers to form an approximate idea of prices. In all transactions with us, our customers may rest assured that our aim will be to give perfect satisfaction.

From the German of Adolph Streckfuss. By Mrs. A. L. WISTER, translator of "The Second Wife," "The Old Mam'selle's Secret," "A Family Feud," etc. 12mo, extra cloth, $1.50. From the first to the end the story grasps and holds the attention, and it is to be pronounced one of the best and most powerful of Mrs. Wister's translations. The tone of it is above reproach, and its naturalness is to be altogether commended.

NEW EDITION OF MOLIÈRE,

IN MONTHLY VOLUMES,

At $3.50 each.

WITH NINETEEN ENGRAVINGS ON STEEL.

On the 15th of February will be issued the first volume of Molière's Dramatic Works, olive cloth, gilt top, with portrait and six engravings on steel, after well-known paintings by eminent artists. The translation is the first complete one of the works of "the greatest of all comic dramatists" (Chambers' Encyclopædia); it will be printed on white ribbed paper, expressly made for it, from electrotype plates cast from a new font of type.

In the early part of last December an edition was printed, and disposed of within a week, and the publishers now believe that a large constituency can be reached by the monthly issue.

MOLIÈRE is the initial work of the Gentleman's Illustrated Library, under which title the publishers design issuing a series of volumes of exceptional value, perfect in typography, beautiful in illustrations, and creditable in manufacture. The volumes will be such as every gentleman would desire, and the publishers will aim to make them in every way worthy of their destined place.

Specimens, Circulars, and Show Cards forwarded on application to the publishers.

GEBBIE & BARRIE, 615 Sansom St., Philadelphia.
