"QISTINCTIYE FEATURES OF ^yESTERN MAIL ENCYCLOPAEDIC DICTIONARY. ITS THOROUGHLY ENCYCLOPEDIC CHARACTER. It is hardly possible to attach too much im- portanee to this feature of the work. It ie not only a; comprehensive dictionary, but also a complete encyclopaedia to all branches of know- ledge. The editors have not rested content with giving merely a definition of each word, but, v.berever necessary, have supplemented the definitions by shoii articles containing a concise description and history of that which" the word represents. Especial efforts have been made to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the scientific information, the chemical and natural science ncmeiclature being brought up to the very latest date ITS COMPREHENSIVENESS AND ITS WIDE- NESS OF RANGE IN POIXT OF TIME. THE LARGER. NUMBER AND PRACTICAL CHARACTER OF ITS ILLUSTRATIONS. The numerous pictorial illustrations, although eminently artistic dn character, are in no sense mere embellishments, but in every case help tc elucidate the text. THE RICHNESS AND COMPLETENESS OF THE ILLUSTRATIVE QUOTATIONS. In both of these most important points the "Western Mail" Encyclopaedic Dictionary stands alone. The editors have endeavoured 'to trace out and show to the reader, by illustrative quotations, the history and development of each word, and such a system is for the first time fully carried out in the present work. In no other dictionary will there be found such a richness and fulness of illustrative quotation. In the "Western Mail" Encyclopaedic Dictionary each meaning and each sub-division of each meaning is. in nearly every case. illustrated bv a quotation, the whole work comprising a col- lection of examples for the fathering together of which a very large number of books of all classes and of every date has been specially read. The ordinary English Dictionaries have been content to register such words r.s are univer- sally recognised as "English." and are to be The ordinary English Dictionaries have been content to register such words :'s are univer- sally recognised as "English." and are to be met with in the writings and conversation of every-day life. But. beyond these, it is impos- sible to open any book or paper without meet- ing with words of a scientific or techni-al character the exact meanings of which. essentia! as they are to the full understanding of the passage? in which they occur, no ordinary dictionary supplies. In such cases the reado- or student, must, consequently, have recourse to some dictionary or glossary specially devoted to the collection and explanation of terms in use in the particular branches of science or art to which such words beloner. The "Western Mail" Encyclopaedic Dictionary, by combining in one all these special glossaries or voca bn-1 laries, effects a double saving—an economy of time and of money. A pENNYWORTH OF JifT'SIC.
