We Give this Savings Bank to Yon If we drop ten cents every day in this bank we shall soon have Fixed Habits of Economy and become rich and successful. If we devote io Minutes every day in looking up one question we shall become educated and i move in the very best society. ) Of which the great London devine, Rev. C. H. Spurgeon said: “If all other books should be destroyed' the Bible excepted, the world would have losl but little of its information.” To secure the World-Herald edition of this great reference library for TEN'CRNTS A DAY you must act quickly or not at all, as the offer is for a limited time only. FOR THREE DOLLARS. We will for a short time send you our Encyclopedia Britannica, the balance to be paid for at the rate of 10 cents a day. The most wonderful set of books on earth. The most liberal offer ever made by a news paper. The terms are too liberal to last long. We have set apart a certain expenditure to extend this opportunity of a lifetime to all our readers. We should be sorry that any of them should get left out, for the Britannica is the one Encyclopedia you have always wanted and said you would own some day. When your wealhty and ambitious friends showed you their expensive sets, costing from §125 to §200, and told you that the enormous price was due to the rare excellence of the books, you wished you, too, could own them—in plain truth, you positively envied the fortunate possessor of this matchless set of books. A newspaper makes friends by serving well the friends it has. To all our friends and readers we extend this unheard-of offer. By this lucky chance you have the advantage over your wealthy friends. The edition we offer in twenty-five large quarto volumes is the only complete and unabridged edition of this great work in existence, revised to date. The Britannica itself needs no endorsement. The fact that over three million dollars was expended in its preparation, requiring the labor of two thousand of the world’s greatest scholars, tells the story of its exalted superiority. Read Our Wonderful Proposition, And bear in mind that this special offer will remain open for a few days only. On receipt of three dol lars we will forward to any subscriber the complete set of twenty-five volumes of our new wide margin edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, the balance to be paid at the rate of §3 monthly; or we will send one-half the set at once on receipt of two dollars and the balance to be paid at the rate of 10 cents a day, payable monthly. The remainder of the set will be sent promptly as soon as the first half is paid for. This edition is printed on a fine quality of paper, is elegantly and substantially bound in heavy silk cloth. The lids of the book are of stout oakum board, which will hold its shape and never warp. The lettering is of gold leaf of the purest quality. It is bound with a double flexible back, just like an Oxford Teach 'er’s Bible, and is more strongly bound than the edition which is sold for §8 a volume. We guarantee / this wcrk to be entirely as represented in every way. Readers who desire to examine before ordering can have a volume sent them for examination. Bear in mind this special offer is made only to our readers and will be withdrawn in a short time. A beautiful dime savings bank will be furnished to each subscriber for the book wherein you can deposit a dime each day. Gut this out and send it in with Three Dollars. ; : : ' ! - - ; . ; _ : Please send me the complete set, 25 volumes, of your Encyclopedia Britannica, in silk and - cloth binding, on your “special” proposition of ten cents a day, payable monthly, and I will make ; ; payments thus until the amount of §49.00 is paid.

'• • - -1 ; NAPOLEON ON RECIPROCITY. A Possible Reason Wby Pngluml IVas Al ways Ready to Him. Napoleon was in very good spirits j and seemed very desirous to show that j though he had ambition England was ' not without her share also. He said that ever since the time of Cromwell we had j set up extraordinary pretensions and1 arrogated to ourselves the dominion of the sea; that after the peace of Amiens Lord Sidinouth wished to renew the for- j mer treaty of commerce, which had been made by Vergennes after the American war, but that ho (Napoleon), anxious to encourage the industry of France, had expressed his readiness to enter into a treaty, not lilco the former, which it was clear from the portfolio of Versailles must be injurious to the interests of France, but on terms of perfect reci procity—viz, that if Franco took so many millions of English goods England should take as many millions of French produce in return. Lord Sidmouth said: “This is totally new. I cannot make a treaty on these conditions. “Very well. I cannot force you into a treaty of commerce any more than you can force me, ancl we must remain as wo are—without commercial intercourse.” “Then,” said Lord Sidmouth, “there will he war, for unless the people of England have the advantages of com- I merce secured to them which they have been accustomed to they will force mo j to declare war.” “As you please. It is my duty to : study the just interests of France, and j I shall not enter into any treaty of com- j merce on other principles than those 1 i have stated.” Ho stated that although England made ! Malta the pretext, all tho world knew | that was not the real cause of the rup ture—that ho was sincere in his desire for peace, as a proof of which ho sent his expedition to San Domingo. When it was remarked by Colonel Campbell that Eng land did not think him sincere, from his ! refusing a treaty of commerce and send ing consuls to Ireland with engineers to examine the harbors, he laughed and said that was not necessary, for every harbor in England and Ireland was well known to him. Bertrand remarked that every embassador was a spy. Napoleon said that the Americans ad mitted the justness of his principles of commerce. Formerly they brought over some millions of tobacco and cotton, took specie in return and then went empty to England, where they furnished themselves with British manufactures. Ho refused to admit their tobacco and cotton unless they took from France an equivalent in French produce. They yielded to his system as being just. Ho added that now England had it all her own way, that there was no power which could successfully oppose her system, and that she might now impose on France any treaty she pleased. . “The Bourbons, poor devils [hero he checked himself], are great lords, who are contented with having back their estates and castles, but if the French people be come dissatisfied with that [tho treaty] and find that there is not the encourage ment for their manufactures in the in terior of the country that there should be, they [the Bourbons] will be driven out in six months. Marseilles, Nantes, Bordeaux and the coast are not troubled by that, for they always have the same commerce, but in the interior it is an other thing. I well know what tho feel ing is for me at Terrare, Lyons and those places which have manufactures, and which I have encouraged.” — Thomas Ussher, R. N., in Century. How Crinoline Is Used. Talking with a celebrity on feminine costume a day or two ago I lightly touched the mooted point—crinoline—and asked the masterly opinion on the subject. “Crinoline,” replied the young man, “as we employ it, is not likely to detract from feminine grace or loveliness. On the contrary, all I desire is to give a con sistent appearance to the materials em ployed, and for that purpose some con venient and as light as possible material has had to be adopted. Alpaca woven with horsehair is about the least weighty lining going and accordingly is more in demand than any other. It is also prob able that later on strips of aluminium will be used to rigidly maintain the hems of skirts in funnel shape. Stiff muslin sewn with narrow lines of straw is forth coming from several manufacturers, but it is exceedingly heavy and inconvenient, and in consequence I have not given it house room.”—London Telegraph. Women of Their Period. In the great momentum of the women movement, which gains new victims every day, one is inclined to overlook the fact that woman was a power moral ly, socially and intellectually in the fif teenth century as well as the nineteenth, that the doors of tho universities were open to her not only to study hut to teach within their sacred precincts. In the University of Salamanca she had a place, and when Isabella of Spain de sired to acquire the Latin tongue it was to a woman that she turned for a tutor. In Italy, even in the thirteenth century, a noble Florentine lady won the palm of oratory in a public contest in Florence j with learned doctors from all over the world.—New York Sun. Street Railway Crossings. Grade crossings on street railways are. as dangerous as on trunk lines and should be just as carefully protected. If a railroad company should cross the tracks of another, leaving the chances of collision to be avoided solely by the watchfulness of the engineer, there would be a great hue and cry. Yet similar carelessness is passed over in the case of street railways, though the danger is even greater on account of the increased frequency with which the tracks are used.—Kate Field’s Washington. A Bad Habit. Mrs. Clamwhooper—John, you have a very annoying habit of saying ‘‘What’s that?” whenever you are spoken to. Can’t you break yourself of it? Mr. Clamwhooper (reading)— Eh — what's that?—Texas Siftinars. %/eetheart‘s : ' my wife’s you know—wears ■ '■.i. e’fiil, iife-is-worth-living expres sion, ever since 1 presented her a box of WHITE RUSSIAN She is always recommending Kirk's •caps to her friends—says she is j ihrough with experiments—has just. what she needed to make labor easy, { and ensure perfectly clean clothes.
