The patent" DUPLEX INDEX" having given such general satisfaction, we have decided to apply it in the future to all copies of the "Annual."

THE

American Educational Catalogue

For 1888 [Nineteenth Year].

THE AMERICAN EDUCATIONAL CATALOGUE, whose value to the trade is proved by the fact that it is now in its nineteenth year, claims to be the best practical aid to the dealer in or buyer of school-books.

With its alphabetical arrangement by authors, its separate class-index, carefully sub-classified to an extent not followed by any other catalogue, its completeness and accuracy, it is presented as the best finding-list, the most convenient order-list, and the most satisfactory class-catalogue for school use.

The catalogue was entirely remade last year, to omit books which have dropped out of use and to include all live books, and it will add this year all new books (ready or to be ready for the fall) in their proper alphabetical place.

The page of explanations of the Telegraphic Code will not be given in imprint editions unless specially ordered.

The Catalogue is specially planned to be of service for circulation by retailers among schools and private buyers. The imprint edition possesses not only temporary value, but will serve its purpose during the whole year. No imprint edition of less than 100 copies can be supplied. Orders for editions should be sent to us at once.

CASH TERMS.

With sole imprint of ordering firm, and stitched, per 100 copies, $5.00; per 1000, $40.00.

There is no extra charge for printing name, business card, etc., on the imprint page; the last page is left blank at the disposal of the dealer, but any copy for that, advertising special lines or general business, will be set up and printed thereon for $5.00, or $1.00 if plate is sent.

*

Copy for imprint and shipping directions should accompany the order.

The regular Educational Number of "THE PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY" will be supplied at 25 cents per copy, or five for $1.00, postpaid.
