fohn T. Faris, Editor of the Westminster Press, says: ‘ ' Here is a cyclopedia that is absolutely and wonderfully 'different.' Readers w ill say, ' Why
didn’1 1 think of it before?' But they didn t! Dr. Welts beautifies the commonplace and enriches the ordinary." AGoodIllustration will drive home any truth. Finding one, howr ever, is only one-half of the battle, for as Henry Ward Beecher said, “ the way to use it is the real problem. ”
Amos r .Weils’ Cyclopedia of Twentieth Century Illustrations is not only a mine of fresh illustrations, it is also a model of what can be done with the art and the most effective method of using it. Dr. Russell H. Conwell says: “It gives the truth wings.” It is the work of nearly a life-time. It has to do with practical affairs of modern life, newly-discovered facts of nature, .marvelous inventions, the doings and words of people of to-day—all drawn from wide observation.
