781 



Huney as Food and Medicine. 



A new edition, revised and enlarged, 

 the new pages being devoted to 7!e(« 

 Kecipes for Honey Medicines, all kinds 

 of cooking in which honey is used, and 

 healthful and pleasant beverages. 



We have put the price of them low 

 to encourage bee-keepers to scatter 

 thern far and wide. Single copy 6 

 cents, postpaid; per dozen, 50 cents; 

 per hundred, $4.00. On orders of 100 

 or more, we print, if desired, on the 

 cover-page, " Presented by," etc., 

 (giving the name and iiddress of the 

 bee-keeper who scatters them). This 

 alone will pay him for all his trouble 

 and expense— enabling him to dispose 

 of his honey at home, at a good profit.

THE INDEPENDENT. 



TUE IXDEPENDKNT needs only to bo better 

 known to add to Us already large list of friends. It 

 has been published for ihirty-flve years and has 

 acquired a world-wide reputation as the best re- 

 ligious and literary newspaper. 



The Ixdepeni>ent is not denominational. Its 

 creed and field are broader than any sect. As a 

 Christian journal, its aim is to strengthen and "ei- 

 tend Evangelical religion and to defend it against 

 the attacks of Materialism, Atheism and unbelief. 

 It Is free to approve or criticise In any of the de- 

 nominations whatever it believes is designed to 

 advance or hinder the progress of the Gospel of 

 Christ. 



In civil and political affairs The Independent 

 will contend for sound ideas and prinoiples. It 

 fought against slavery and the iniquitous system 

 of the Oneida Community. It is now fighting 

 against Mormonism. It believes in the reform of 

 the civil service and tariff, in the purification of 

 politics and in cheap postage, and will maintain 

 those principles which the highest ethics and best 

 Intelligence require. 



The Independent is designed to suit all tastes 

 and wants. We provide weekly stories by the best 

 magazine writers, poems by the leading poets of 

 America and England (we first published in Amer- 

 ica Tennyson's last poem), and for others, who look 

 especially for instruction, whether in reltgioua, 

 literary, educational, philosophical, or scientific 

 articles, we furnish what no other periodical doea 

 or can. We pay large prices to obtain the most 

 eminent writers. Besides the editorials, there 

 are twenty-two distinct departments, edited by 

 twenty-two specialists, which include Biblical Re- 

 search. Sanitary, Legal, Fine Arts. Music, Science, 

 Pebbles, Personalities, Ministerial Kegister, Hymn 

 Notes. School and College. Literature, Religious 

 Intelligence, Missions, Sunday School. News of the 

 Week. Finance. Commerce. Insurance, Stories, 

 Puzzles, Selections, and Agriculture. 3S Paeea 

 In all. 



We will report in full Rev. Joseph Cook's cele- 

 briited Boston Monday Lectures, which will begin 

 in January. Mr. Cook has just returned from a 

 two years' trip round the world, and his lectures 

 this Winter will attract greater attention than 

 ever.
