dence of his liberal method of diifusing know-
ledge'
Frotn the Illustrated Newspaper, Dec. 31, 1859.
" Mr. Evans has done more than any other
publisher or b«*>kseller in the United States
towards diffusing knowledge to the people,
and although the gift is the allurement to
the purchase of the book, still when it is re
eeived, it is hardly thrown aside, but is read
by some one, and thus many books are read
that otherwise would not have found their
way into.the hands of readers."
George G. Evans, the originator of the Gift
Book Enterprise, keeps constantly on hand
the most extensive stock, the greatest assort-
ment of books, and circulates free to all who
uvay apply, the most complete catalogue of

eannot be surpassed. The most liberal com-
missions are offered, and by soliciting Bub
sor ptions to books ia the manner proposed,
twenty books can be sold in the same time

fined to my boase, and most Iff nto-Ébi# in^
my bed ; during which time I had beeri ün-'
successfully treated by ^ve physicians, all of

which 1 comuieuced the use m Dr^K^vrs'
Liver medicines, which gave marked relief i a
three days, and in a short tima I waa entirely!
iclieved from ths disease, and I now oonfrider

cially in that distressing disease, as
iu uiy opinion, unrivalled.
