New Your Cm. it. Y.. July o. 1895.
Miter Samuel—Dun Era: The Daily
News‘s! July 8rd had considerable to
say, in the way'of asadvsrtisemsnt for
Johnson’s Encyclopedia. Ir. Brainard.
the book agent, and his representative.
Ir. billiaid.
It is with regret that the subject is ap-
proscksd, for i had always supposed my-
self an' engineer, and not in the adver-
tising business for a book agent, especi'
ally a stranger.
Kr. liallaid,.whom I supposed, from
his conversation, circulars, etc, was
Mr. Bralnard, called on me, and among
other things said: "lir. Blder,ycur name
has been handed me, as being one well
up in your line of business. I am the
representative of Johnson's Ency clopsdia;
have been forced into a “fight in your
city by a newspaper which Is trying m
palm of! a reprint of Britannica on the
public.” ‘
(At breakfast table, in adjacent room-
psrties were discussing the liberal offer
of Tim SENTINEL). Upon looking over
one or two volumes of our Encyclopedia
Britannica, he said, "Yes it’s exactly the
same work; look at that poor print, bind-
ing, etc., and then compare it with these
pages, which are exactly the same as
pages similarly numbered in Johnson’s.”
I told him that often 1 had found less in-
formation than was expected in Britan-
nica; he said that fault could not be
found with Johnson's. After a long dis-
cussion, during which he said you were
swindling the public, be stated: “Now
what we want you to do is to compare
your work, Britannica, with Johnson's,
which I will send you. We do not ex-
pect you to work for nothing, and will
pay you liberally for your time and
trouble. Just make notes of where you
find Britannica wantinc. and compare it
with our work, embody it all in a letter
or testimonial, and if you like our work
andrwant a copy. we will give it to you
at a reduced price.” . '
The two works were compared, and as
my opinion was adverse to Johnson's,l
did not feel in duty bound to give a book
agent a recommendation for his work,
especially when the result justified one
for Britannica instead. I did think,how-
ever, that if the work Ina Bsxrrsal. was
giving, or selling, was exactly like ours,
that the “swindle,” if say, was about to
be perpetrated by Johnson's representa-
tive, and not by THE Ssnrrxan. With-
out question, either work is well worth
the price asked, but so far as I can see,
Britannica excells Johnson’s so far as its
treatment of the subjects named in
my letter to you were concerned,at least.
The News states that I said, "1 exam-
ined the subject of filtration.” My letter
read, “I decline toendorse, etc, so far
as its treatment of engineering subjects,
filtration, chemistry and biology are con-
cerned; further than this I know nothing
of Johnson's."
In looking for filtration in Johnson's
work, a reference saying, “See Water,”
or something like that, was encountered.
This seemed strange to me for other things
beside water are filtered—chemicals, sew-
age and other liquids, -and all in adif
ferent manner.
The purification of sewage by constant
and intermittent filtration is taking the
attention of the whole scientific world.
The health of future generations depends
upon it, and still in looking for informa-
tion in regard to it in Johnson’s, it says,
“See Water.”
Sewage is not water, fllteration of sew-
age is not filterstion? of water, nor can
sewage be properly filtered in the same
manner as water. It seems absurd, there.
fore. that the entire matter of filteration
should be embodied under the subject
“Water." .
My statement in regard to filteratlon
was for this and other reasons justified.
Johnson‘s is undoubtedly a very good
work, but Britannica is much better.
This is my opinion, and no strange book
agent for a few or many dollars, or
books at a reduced price, nor careful
comparison of the two works by myself,
has changed that opinion.

The question is often asked: What
does it take to constitute a successful,
educated man or womar? Some one has
answered this question by saying that
"an educated person is one who knows
how and when to act." Amateur ora-
tors have often thought to tackle the
fancy and play upon the credulity of
their audience by pointing to such men
as Abraham Lincoln as, glorious exam-
ples of the men who have succeeded
without an education. These craters
mistake college building for education.
Lincoln was an educated man; he got
his education at a different sort of col-
lege from that of EarvarJ, Yale and
the University of Michigan. He availed
himself of the means within his reach.
And this is true of every man that has
ever made a success. Tun. SENTINIZI.
