Honey as Food and Medicine. 



A new edition, revised and enlarged, 

 the new pages being devoted to 7iew 

 Recipes 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 

 them far and wide. Single copy & 

 cents, postpaid; per dozen, 50 cents; 

 per huiKlied, $4.00. On orders of lOO 

 or more, we print, if desired, on the 

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

 (giving the name and address 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 result of the election has 

 proved a grand success, but not more 

 so than Kendall's Spavin Cure is 

 proved to be every day. 48w4t 



Holiday Presents are annually 

 sought for. But it is often difficult to 

 liiid appropiiate and inexpensive ar- 

 ticles of real value, that will be kept, 

 used and appieciated by a friend. 

 Among these we would make favor- 

 able mention of the Noyes Dictionary 

 Holders and Noyes Handy Tables.
