[This e-text comes in three different forms: unicode (UTF-8), Latin-1
and ascii-7. Use the one that works best on your text reader.

--If "oe" displays as a single character, and apostrophes and
quotation marks are "curly" or angled, you have the utf-8 version
(best). If any part of this paragraph displays as garbage, try
changing your text reader's "character set" or "file encoding".
If that doesn't work, proceed to:
--In the Latin-1 version, "oe" is two letters, but French words like
"etude" have accents and "ae" is a single letter. Apostrophes and
quotation marks will be straight ("typewriter" form). Again, if you
see any garbage in this paragraph and can't get it to display
properly, use:
--The ascii-7 or rock-bottom version. All necessary text will still be
there; it just won't be as pretty.

Boldface text is shown with *asterisks*. The notation [->] represents
the pointing-finger symbol.

The layout of the advertising pages is shown after all text, along with
a list of file names for major illustrations. Typographical errors in
the original, whether corrected or not, are listed at the end.]
