_The NEW EDITION of the
INSIDECOMPLETUAR
BRITANNIAWARE_
_not only gives a succinct birds-eye view of the_ dernier cri _in
every field of mental activity, but retells anew, in crisp and
chatty fashion, the story of such departments of human knowledge as
have been revolutionised under the searchlight of the Bell’s Eye
Lantern. A glance at the margin of this cover will convince the reader
