THE COMPLETE WORKS OF ARTEMUS WARD
By Charles Farrar Browne. With a biographical sketch of the author by Melville D. Landon. The present edition is of a work which has been for more than thirty years prominently before the public, and which may be justly said to have maintained a standard character. It is issued because of a demand for a better edition than has ever been published.
In order to supply this acknowledged want, the publishers have enlarged and perfected this edition by adding some matters not heretofore published in book form.
A large 12mo, printed from new electroplates, with 28 full-page illustrations, and photogravure portrait of the author, handsomely bound in cloth, gilt top, $2.00.

Over 80,000 copies have been sold. Illustrated. Cloth bound, $1.50.
