ENGYGLOP/EDIA BRITANNIGA The Encyclbpzedia Britannica, Revised and amended, unless in connection with a. years subscription to THE ADVANCE. Before The Northern Advance secured control of this ' real: work the publishers price was $40 a, set, while we give you a. set`. and a. year's pmper or $26. Tha.t s What you get for pa.troniz_ing a. live newspaper. _ The Encyelopa>edia_ Britannica, Revised and Amended, is published in 10 large illus- trated and handsomely bound volumes, nd contains about 7,000 pages, 14,000 columns, 8,- 500,000 words--altogether an amount 0 reading matter equal to about 110 ordinary 1'. 1110. voluines in amount and 1,000 volumes in interest and practical information. Apart from its inestimable value as a work of reference, this Encyclopzedia has a value which many people never think of associating with books of its description. It is a perfect library of general literature of the mostentertaining kind. Are you fond of history? It contains the history ofevery nation that ever ourished, tells the story of every war that ever was waged, and gives an account of every important battle that was ever fought. Biography 1 -It tells the-life story of every man who has helped to mould the destines or thoughts of the world-Lcompletely if the man be deauil, or down to the present year if he be still alive. Do you want travels, famous voyages, wild adventures among savage tribes or in in- hospitable deserts? The Encyclopzedia contains them all, not compiled in a hasty, catch- penny style, but written by masters of thought and language in each department. Some of the nest essays of Macaulay are to be found within the pages of his work ; or, if you incline to scientic study, the Eneyclopaedia offers you papers prepared by such authorities as Huxley. Tyndall and Helmholtz on every department of science which the mind of man has yet explored. And the `superlative advantage of the whole arrangement is that if in the course of your readin you meet, as so often happens, a perplexing reference to something you never have heard of before, or have forgotten, you have only to take down another volume of the Encyclopzedia to learn all about it at a moment s notice. Because it `combines the best features of the best English and American Encyclopazdias. It contaiusin an amended form every article in the original Encyclop;e;lia Britannica-ar- ticles. written` by the foremost men of the age, at a cost of more than a million dollars. It presents a series of entirely new articles on distinctly Canadian and American subjects, which are but li htly ` touched in the original edition, It condenses within reasonable "limits articles on` istinctly British subjects, on which the Britannica is exceedingly diffuse. It contains 4,000 bio aphical sketches of all prominent living men and women--a feature which is "totally lac ing in the original. And it presents a large number of new and beautifully executed maps, including an entirely new map of each and every nation on earth.

PETERSBURG, Aug. 18.--In the coming fall wholesale legal proceedings against Nihi- _lists and Anarchists will take place here. Many well educ_'ated'men`and women are charged with having taken part in Nihilistic plots, as students, `teachers, 4 merchants, army oflicers, etc." Few of them` will get free, as an indictment is almost `as good as conviction, One of the most interesting cases will be that against the niece of State s Counsel Ilinski, indicted for having opened | met there nights, the young lady presiding. State s Counsel Ilinski, who is known to be loyal to the government, was entirely un- , aware of the fact, and, it is said, will not move a nger to save her. The young lady is highly educated,` bright, attractive and courageous. They offered her freedom if she wovld name all the conspirators, but the house .of her uncle to conspirators, who ` she arnly refused. ` i ROME, Aug. 18.-An aerona.ut who made an ascent yesterday at hlacerate, was ob- served to sail gracefully away to the east when suddenly he` fell from the car and plunged downward from a dizzy hoi ht.

The Extent` the Shoe Trade. The maqnitudel the shoe industry in the States is illustrated in this way by the Shoe and Leather Reporter: The census _of 1890 reports the population to be 65,- 480,540. Annual increrse in native popu- lation, two per. cent.; of. immigrants, something like half a million persons. Hence 1,749,610 more pairs of feet are to be shod each year;efor each pair it is esti- mated that three pairs of shoes are need- ed, making the total increase every twelve months of 5 248,930. This year the pop- ulation may be reckoned at` 64.530,150. They may be expected to use 195,590,450 pairs of shoes, costing to produce, an average, $1.15,a 'pair-$221,594,017. Add the manufacturers prot, 5 per ,cent., and the aggregate annual expenditure for shoes by consumers is $419,926,860, inde- pendent of what. they pay for rubbers, which will swell it to $350,000,000 or thereabouts. ' ' ' A good many Grit contemporaries are demanding that the preachers take a hand in politics by denouncing the corrup- tion at Ottawa. The Grrit.contempor- aries imagine that if the preachers were to take the matter up the Grit party would be the gainer. They. are not anxious for purit'y--they are after votes. But why should the preachers pitch into the cor- rupt politicians? When a preacher goes astray--- which, unfortunately, is too often the case-or when a member of a con- gregation becomes corrupt, the preachers do not thunder against the culprit ; they make every endeavor to "hush the matter up and keep it quiet. Why, then. should the Grits expect the preachers to denounce` a corrupt politician 3 .; There is `a story somewhereabout s mote and a beam that seems to t here.-_-Ham'ilton: Spectator. , i What the Grits Want tne'1?:eahers to `Do.
