NEW5 AND aOSSIP OP A NEW BOOK ON THE BIBLE have been 

 corrent in book and Christian circles everj-where for some months In it^ 

 authorship was to be combined the superb talents and literary abilities of 

 three of tie greatest lights in the world of religions literature. 



The book is about to appear and on its title p^e in collaboration as authon 

 are found the names of that most popular of all writers. IAN MACLAREN (Rev. 

 John Wa:son), together with M. m. WHARTON, B.O., the great E%-angelisi. and 

 J. WILLIAM BOELt Pb.D., one of the most prominent and popular writers on 

 Biblical subjects. A MASTERPIECE INDEED must be the book which <ialls to 

 its creation such a combination of unmatchable talents, IT IS A MASTER- 

 PIECE— and it is good news we bring our readers when we tell them that after 

 the most persistent endeavor and the most industrious and earnest nepotiations with 

 the Publishers, this paper is one of a syndicate which has secured the eniire firet 

 edition for distribution among their subscribers, not as a means of winning profits* 

 but to encourage the people to become regular readers, because of the unusual 

 privileges which are offered regular patrons. 



The book Is enUtled " THE OOLDEN MORNINO." and while it was intended 

 to be a J5.00 book, and has everything about it — authorship, illustrations, paper, 

 printing and binding— to warrant that price, we have, after manv objections and 

 refusals, made terms wherebv WE ARE IN POSITION TO OFFER IT TO OUR 

 READERS AT A GREAT REDUCTION. It contains nearly 800 pages and over 

 500 superb illustrations. It is printed with clear type- on coated paper, and is 

 bound to beautifully illuminated covers, with gold end ooloitd stamping. 



IT 15 IN REALITV THE BIBLE IN STORY FORM arranged so as to 

 assure a perfect understanding of THE GREATEST OF ALL B00K5 even by 

 little children. All ambiguous and obscure phrases and descriptions have been 

 put into language which makes them clear as noonnda^. The historic events have 

 fceen arranged in their proper order, and the story is made continuous and of 

 absorbing interest throughout Poetical description so freely used in the Bible, 

 and the many Parables, have all received analysis and now appear as plainly tola 

 tales which need no interpreter or eiplaoation. 



Hundreds of artistic and accurate pictures have been used to embellish its 



Sages and fir in the miud of reader or student the scenes so graphically described, 

 fo book of a religious nature has e\-er been so sumptuously illustrated. This 

 feature alone costing an enormous sum of money, as every drawing was made 

 especially for this work. 



It will be of highest valae to the young, as from a few readings, thev will • 

 get such an understanding of Bible truths and promises from this book, that it 

 would require years for them to gather through Bible reading or studv. Indeed, 

 one of the chief claims of "THE OOLDEN ftORNINQ" to universal 'popularity, 

 is that the children will learn to reverence and love the Bible and to accept its 

 teachings through reading this charmingly written story. 



WE ARE READY TO DISTRIBUTE THIS GRAND BOOK AflONQ OUR 

 READERS who should order at ouce, as our portion of the introductory edition is

 mas time, R. A. Bi;rnett & Co. 



Cincinnati, Dec. 7.— There is a good demand 

 for all kinds of extracted honey. While clover 

 and basswood sell at 8^8J4c; amber and South- 

 ern, t>(«'7c, according to quality and packag'e. 

 Fancy comb honey in no-drip shipping-cases 

 sells at 15(11 I6c; darker grades hard to sell at 

 any price. Beeswax, 2<>c, C. H. W. Weber,

New York Dec. 10.^ — Demand is very good for 

 all grades of comb honey. Receipts are some- 

 what light and not up to former years. We 

 quote: 



Fancy white, 15 cents; No. 1, white, 13(3il4c;

 quality. Extracted remains Arm at following 

 prices: California white, S^c: light amber, 8c;
