TIME, TIDE AND OPPORTUNITY W^IT FOR NO JVI7KM. Now or NEVER, not Now or LATER. IN calling your attention to the " Daily Mail " withdrawal of the " Encyclop.wlia Diitannica " ofter in New Zealand, we have but little to add to what we have already said in these columns. We believe the announcements heretofore made tuue fully explained our no\el ofter. We have been in receipt of many letters of enquiry, however, from persons who desire still further information, and to these we ha\e replied — (1.) The full 26 \olumes are forwarded immediately upon receipt of the order, or within 21 to 36 hours. Stock is carried temporarily in Wellington. (2.) Subscribers pay carriage cost from Wellington only. The a\erage freight charges to any poifc in New Zealand from Wellington for a se°t of' the books is ss, and the railway carriage can be ascertained at nearest railway station (3 ) The books weigh 210 lb , and are carefully packed m London in a /inc-lined or tar-paper-lined case. The bookcase weighs about 85 lb., but being bulky the carriage is about 50 per cent, in excess of ihat of a set of books. It is set up ready for use. (1.) Books are forwarded upon the first payment of 5^ ; monthly payments to commence on receipt of the books, and can be paid to any branch of the Bank of New South Wales in the colony with foims which we furnish regularly. There is no duty to be paid upon either books or bookcase. (5.) We especially lecommend the three-quarter Levant binding, because of its greater durability and attractiveness, although all bindings are serviceable, and with proper care will last a hfet me (6.) This offer will be permanently withdrawn on April sth, and orders p sted later than that date will not be accepted. (7.) In an emergency you can send a wire to us on the last day asking us to reserve a set of books, name the binding, and adding that you are posting the necessary first payment. If you do this your order will be booked on receipt of the order form, properly filled in, and necessary remittance.
