The amount of anriual subscription

bera obtained war 66. making goco. The
nuiaber of proprielora, or life members,
was 16, making $2,800, making a total
of $3,100. Among these lncoiiporn.tf.rrB
nnd mmtbers are Ithe minus ctf men
who have made the city of Macon anil
the commonwealth of Georgia Riotous
by Itholr illulstrrious rtvc*.
One of ithe peculiar fentures of the
socloty win that persons wh<j only paid
$10 were only nllbwed “to use the
books nnd vbik the reading rootm of
the society, but shall not be privileged
to take nnv books belonging <o aald
rrcloty therefrom.” It was only these
who paid $100 were allowed to take
uw-ay b-aoka; yot tn our day, by the
payment, or the promise to jny, ,of $1

stray almost «nv book ln.Mte library.
Hut times have changed, nnd no have

Wllsy Sc limit i •* frying to Sell Inferior
Cfcloptdlna Under FretnniM That Are
] Fnlae—“Diere Is No Vice Ho filmple but
Assume* Homo Murk of Virtue In Ills
Outward Furls.**
Wo clip tho following from tho At
lanta Constitution in tho hope that it
will protect our readers against tho
minrepresentutkmi of any unreliable
book agent* who may approach them.
Tho Constitution i* certainly doing an
excellent work in tho way of encourag
ing methods of homo education. And
it hi to bo deplored that there are per
sons no unscrupulous m to tako advan
tage of tho groat interest which has
thus been aroused and attempt to turn
it to tbeir own personal gain.
It would lw bad enough if they simply
defrauded Tho Constitution of the right
ful reword for its libera) educational
enterprise, but what is worse, theso
pretenders are palming ofT on an unsus
pecting public nil sorts of inferior pub
lications, at a prieo nearly sufficient to
buy the genuine now edition of tho En
cyclopaedia Britanniea, now offered at
special introductiory rates by The Con
stitution. Tho Constitution says:
In Wednesday's Constitution the lead
ing oditorlal was devoted to on expose of
the Insidious attempt of the jute trust to
deceive cotton shipper*. This brings ua to
t!i ( * < ''ii -I'l'" ;i» ion of aunt Iht mat t»*r upon
which tho public should bo informed.
Believing that tho wide dissemination
of the new edition of tho Encyclopncdiu
Britanniea would be a lasting and. dadoed
IwmsUt to the people of this section, a
special introductory contract was secured
from the Britanniea publishers wholly in
the interest of our readers. Tho Consti
tution is notin tho book ImsincHS for any
profit on the sale*. It is not concerned, in
a pecuniary sen ho, further Hum the legiti
mate IncrrnM of the number of subscrib
ers to tho dally and tho weekly Constitu
tion. The knowledge of the educational
good it is accomplishing through thin lib-
eml olfer would alone fh» suflicieut recom
pense for tho entire undertaking.
Tills liberal enterprise of The Constitu
tion low excited ili«s cupidity of certain
persons who have other books to sell.
Taking advantage of our methods for In
troduction of Britanniea Into bouses not
already provided, they seek to cunningly
Impress prospective buyers that t hey can
offer something 'practically tho saiuo” or
"just na good.” This is deceptive, and wo
wish our renders to understand that tho
new edition of tlio Encyclopedia Britan
nica In just off tho press; that it has never
been offered to the public, before in any
section of tho United States, and that ft
can bo hnd only from Tho Constitution or
Its authorized representatives. All others
purporting to bo tho samo nro so present
ed for tho purpose of deception.
This is a matter to which The Constitu
tion 1ms been slow to mnko reference, be
cause \v« recognize the right of every man
to advance his own pecuniary interests by
Helling any books ho may hnvo or may bo
able to obtnin. While no reference library
ran be found ennui to tho new edition of
tho Encyclopedia Britanniea, yet Tho Con
stitution recognizes the fact tuat this docs
not rendor other reference libraries value-
Icon; hiuI there may !>o those who could
not afford to puiclmw tho host even at tho
exceptionally low introductory prieo now
offered to Tho Constitution teuders. It
would Ihj an undoubted blessing to ouch
to obtain a rcforeiico library of any sort
that would come wltldn their means, for
all rrfomic-* hooka nro valuable aids to
ward Helf-oducatlon.
There can bo no objection, tberoforo, to
other persona offering their hooka for sale
anywhere and at any tlmo they see lit, so
long iv* they routine themselves to the
truth, and sell their hooka at proper prices,
not attempting by deceptive methods, to
obtain for their inferior works a prieo
which would onable tho purchaser, hnd
liq not been deceived, to obtain tho genu
ine now edition of the Encylonacdia lirlt-
tnnlcn. It would be nil well enough if
those Inferior woiks were sold at a prieo
proportionate, but thoRo who buy should
underhtnud that they are not getting tho
now edition, or any thing liko It. A refer-
encotonnv modem subject, such ns Aus
tral Inn ballot nystem, welding Iron by clec-
trb lty. ehrtr'icullon, etc., eliow bow ut
terly Inaduouato theso out-of-date editions
nro to (111 the needs of n mnu who wants
up-to-date information.
SmioofthoHo itinerants have been so
bold as to use language intended to lead
buyers to taltovo that they were represon-
tatIves of The Constitution. A little care,
however, will uncover thl* mask, as every
person who Is authorized to offer th« now
edition of the Encyclopaedia llrltnnnica is
provided with a totter of identification
from The Constitution. If not provided
with such a letter, which the buyer 1ms a
right to soe, purchasers may know ho
1h not a representative of ThoConMitu-
tlon, nor has be the geuulne new edition
of the Encyclopaedia Britanniea for salo.
