"This book on OBSTETRICS is the first and ONLY COMPLETE book on this subject ever sold by subscription. In order that it might not attract the attention of children and yeet be perused by all and placed either on the table or in the library, we had the illustrations left out and bound into a chart, which will be delivered to the subscriber with the complte book. ... To do this involves much more expense on the part of the publishers but it gives great satisfaction, as the chart can be hidden away from youngsters and used as a private study by rightful parties when reference is necesary. A Persual of this CHART in connection with the book may be the means of saving the lives of dear ones as well as a great deal of expense."
