Because of the desirability of keeping the work abreast of the. Progress of a constantly changing and developing industry, the publishers have assumed the burden of resetting the type for each edition, resisting the temptation of greater profit which would attend re printing from plates with minimum revision. There fore this edition is wholly set anew - the ninth op portunity for free revision which the writer has enjoyed during the publication of the work, which has reached a total of twenty - five thousand copies since the appearance of the first edition in 1889.
