The following offer of free books has probably not been equalled heretofore. In this small space it is impossible to explain the whole offer, but we will send a copy of our 16-page illustrated HARPER'S ROUND TABLE Book-List to any one who will send us an application for it. (The supply is limited.) The offer includes libraries of two, three, four, and five books each, and a few libraries containing from forty to two hundred and fifty books, which are sent to any one for certain numbers of paid two-dollar subscriptions to HARPER'S ROUND TABLE. These libraries have been carefully chosen, with a view, in some cases, to educational libraries for schools, for Sunday-schools, and for the home, in others for libraries of fiction, of travel, and of biography. The Book-List also contains a catalogue of standard works, which are offered singly for one or more two-dollar paid subscriptions to HARPER'S ROUND TABLE. If you are a school-teacher, send to us for a circular announcing the special offer which we are making to you.
