Britannica, Revised and amended, unless in connection with a. yea.r s subscription to THE. KDVANCE. Before The Northern Advance secured control of this eat work the publishers price was $40 a. set, while we give you a set and a. year's paper or $26. That sawha;t?you get for patronizing a live newspaper. The Encyclopedia Britannica, Revised and Amended, is published in 10 large illus- tl'8.te(%0and handshmely bound volumes, and contains about 7,000 pages, 14,000 columns, 8,- 500, words-.altogether an amount of reading mattefequal to about 110 ordinary 12 mo. volumes in amount and 1,000 volumes in interest and practical information. Apart from its inestimable value;-as a work of reference, this Eucyclopaedia has a value which many people never think of associating with books of its description. It is a perfect library of general literature of ethe most entertaining kind. Are you fond of history? It contains the history of every nation thatever ourished, tells `the story of every war that ever was `waged, and ives an account of every important battle that was ever fought. Biography ? It tells the ife story of every man who has helped to mould thegdestines or thoughts of the world-completely if the man be dead, or down to,thepresent year if he be still alive. Do you want travels, famous voya es, wild adventures among savage tribes or in in- hospitable deserts ? The Encyclopae ia contains _thQn_a1l, 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 Encyclopedia offers yourpapers prepared by such authorities as Huxley. Tyndall and Helmholtz on every department ofscience which the mind of man has yet explored. And the superlative advantage of `the whole arrangement is that if in the course of your reading 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 Encyclapaedia to learn all about it at a moment s notice. Because it combines the best features of the best English and American Encyclopgedias. It contains in an amended form every article in the original Encyclopaedia Britannica.-an 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 lightly touched in the original edition. It condenses within reasonable limits articles on distinctly British subjects, on which the Britannica is exceedingly diffuse. It contains 4,000 bioiilphical sketches of all prominent living men and women-a feature which is totally lac ' g in the original. And it presents a large number of new and beautifully executed maps, including anventirely new map of each and every nation on earth.` Injshort, it is what its names implies-The Encyclopaedia Britannica, Revised earnu. .u.| uuvn and amended."

Many of the men and their fmnilies are subsisting on one meal a.-day and have been doing so for two weeks. The men talk with an air of grim determmetion to light it out to the death if need be. There 19 no hope, however, that this will not be- come necessary, as the National Executive Board of the Coal Miners Association of the United States has at last recognized the strike and approved it and has issued a call to all its members to contribute to the relief of the strikers. It has been stated that mine owners in adjoining states have been supplying contracts for the Indiana mine owners. This will be investigated by the board, and if it cannot be settled in an other way the miners in those states wi l be called out also.` One Dead, the other Ilfiano. _ NEW Yonx, Dec. 17. --John Kleusch, who competed with George Stratton, deceased, in a. 45 days fast. in a dime museum `here, ` was adjudged insane to-day, and sent to an . -no-Jenna ` V'IN KVJJII asylum. born 01 u uuuu.
