Six Exquisite Volumes. Coloured Frontispieces.
Specially Clear Type.

In this, Messrs. Nelson claim to have produced the ideal edition of the works of the great dramatist.

Of its distinctive features, the most noticeable is the compactness secured by the use of India Paper—a compactness not gained at the cost of using small and eye-trying type. On the contrary, the use of India Paper admits of the use of a bold-faced and beautifully clear letter, of precisely the same character and size as shown in this paragraph. Students of Shakespeare who like to carry a copy about with them will specially value and appreciate this feature.

The whole of the plays and poems are included in only six volumes of ideally handy and convenient size, neither too large for the pocket nor too small for the shelf. Each volume contains an artistic coloured frontispiece and a decorative title-page. The binding is specially neat and tasteful, and there is a choice of three distinct styles of cloth and leather bindings, at from 2/- each volume net.

The extreme neatness and tastefulness of this set makes it one of the most exquisite and acceptable gifts that can be made. It is the edition that a student or lover of Shakespeare would choose for himself.

Prices, 2/-, 2/6, and 3/-each volume. Also in Sets in Cloth and Leather Cabinets; prices on application to the Booksellers.

Footnotes

¹ The common salutation throughout the Balearic Islands is Bon di tenga from an inferior to a superior, to which the reply would be Bon di. Frequently, however, the first of these is clipped down to the last word, which is pronounced "Tain-ga." After dark it becomes Bon nit, or Bon nit tenga, according to social standing.

² A peseta is worth rather less than a franc at the usual rate of exchange.

³ Note, by another hand.—Inquiries pushed by me, Taltavull, through the agents of my brotherhood in the neighbourhood of Du Toit's Pan, have elicited the following communication: "Pether, more generally known as Conkleton, was a regular Jew Kopjewalloper from Petticoat Lane. He had abundance of money, and was the pest of the diamond fields. Several of his runners were caught and convicted, but no case could ever be framed against him in person, as he flourished before the days of Diamond Registration. However, the charge of I.D.B. grew so strong against him that at last the boys took the law into their own hands and rock-salted him. Afterwards he disappeared. The lesson appeared to have been sufficient. Rock-salt, so they say, when fired into the skin, hurts." The name of my informant cannot be divulged; but he is a most earnest worker in the Great Cause, and I, Taltavull, will pledge my credit on his veracity.
