The Century Mmruzlno is now so well known that to toll of Its t > nst success seems nlniost an old story. ThoN. Y. Tribune lias said that It and the companion. St. Nicholas for Young Folks , Issued by the same house , "are road by every one person of thirty of the country's population , " and large additions of both ars sent beyond the seas. It la an interesting fact that a few years ago it was found that seven thousand copies of The Century went to Scotland. quite a respectable edition in Itself. The question in England Is no longer "Who reads an American Hook ? " but "Who does not see tlio American magazines ? " A few years ago The Century about doubled its circulation with the famous War Papers , by General Grant and others , adding many more readers later with the Lincoln History and Kennan's thrilling articles on the Siberian Exile System. One great feature of 1891 is to be "TUB GOLD IIONTEKS OF CALIFORNIA. " describing that remarkable movement to the gold Uelds in ' 49. in a series of richly illustrat ed articles written by survivors , including the narratives of men who went to California by the different routes , accounts of the gold dis coveries , life in the mines , the work of the vigilance committees ( by the chairman of the committees ) etc. . etc. General Fremont's lost writing was done for this series. In Novem ber appears the opening article , "Tho First Emigrant Train to California , " crossing the Rockies in 1841 , by General Bidwell , a pioneer of pioneers. Thousands of American families who had some relative or friend among "the Argonauts of ' 49."will be intererested In these papers. * MANY OTHER GOOD THINGS ARE COMING , the narrative of an American's travels through that unknown land Tibet ( for 700 miles over ground never before trod by white man ) ; the experiences of escaping War-Pris oners : American Newspapers described by well-known journalists ; accounts of the great , Indian Fighters , Ouster and others ; personal anecdotes of Lincoln , by bis private secretar ies ; "The Faith Doctor , " a novel by Edward Eggleston , with a wonderfully rich program of novelettes and stories by most of the lead ing writers , etc. , etc. It is also announced that the Century has purchased the right to print , before its ap pearance in France or any other country , ex tracts from advance sheets of the famous Tal- eyrand Memoirs , which have been secretly preserved for half a ceutury to be first given to the world through the pages of an Ameri- : an Magazine. All Europe is eagerly awaiting he publication of this personal history of Talleyrand greatest of intriguers and dip'o- ' mats. The November Century begins the volume , and new subscribers should commence with hat issue. The subscription price ( $4.00) ) may be remitted directly to the publishers.

What one will not know about preparing for Christmas , about trimming the tree and suitable gifts nnd good cheer and how to heartily enjoy the mer ry Christmas-tide , after reading this charming Magazine , is not worth knowing. "Lighting the Way for Santa Glaus" is the very appro priate introductory water-color , the rich humor of which will be highly appreciated by the little ones and "children of a larger growth"as well : and the engraving that fol lows , "Raphael Painting the Virgin and Child , " is from a noted painting , and will be appreci ated for its historic value as well as its beauty. Besides these , there are at least two hundred and fifty other handsome illustrations , for this representative Family Magazine is noted for the quantity and good quality of its pict ures. "In the Streets of Paris" is a profusely il lustrated article , in reading which one is in fancy transported to that charming city , and if one prefers to visit nearer home , the des cription and exquisite pictures of the Wash ington residence of Senator Sawyer of Wiscon sin , afford a revelation of beauty. There are splendid stories and poems , and every depart ment is brimful of just what you want lo know in its special line. "Sanitarian" treats of that sad ailliction "Obesity. " and the commonsense mon-sense treatment recommended is bound to be efficacious ; and "Our Girls" will be de lighted with the comedietta in their special department. But our advice is , subscribe for this splendid Magazine , and you can have a rare treat each month. It is only ยง 2 a year , and is published by W. Jennings Demorest , 15 East 14th Street , New York. Remarkable Rescue. Mrs. Michael Curtain , Plainfleld , 111. , makes the statement that she caught cold , which settled on her lungs ; she was treated for a month by her family physician , but grew worse. He told her she was a hopeless victim of consumption and that no medicine could cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption ; she bought a bottle and to her delight foundherself bene- fitted from llrst dose. She continued its use and after taking ten bottles found herself sound and well , now does her own housework and is as well as she ever was. Free trial bottles tles of this great discovery at A. McMillen's drug store. Regular sizes 50 cents and Sl.OO. Card of Thanks. We , McCook Camp Sons of Veterans , wish to express our gratefulness to the W. K.
