LITTELL'S LIVING AGE FOR 1915
Since its absorption of EVERY Satur-
day The LtrtRg Age, always the chief,
has become the O2iy eclectic weekly Of
the country. After its successful career
of over thirty years, it seems more Wig
erous and prosperous than before. And
it would be difficult to over estimate its
value to American readers as the only
thorough as well as fresh compilation of
a current literature which embraces
within its great and generally inacceSsi-
BILE mass, the productions of the ablest
living writer's in science, fiction, poetry.
history, biography, politics, theology,
philosophy, criticism and art
Represented in its pages are such dis
tinguished authors as Prof. Max Muller.
Prof. Tyndall, DIR. w. b. Carpenter,
Hon. w. f. Gladstone, Prof. Huxley,
Francis Power Cobbe, Richard A. Proc
tor, Matthew Arnold, the Duke of Argyll,
Charles Kingsley, Arthur Helps, James
Anthony Froude, Mrs. Muloch, Anthony
Trollope, Mrs. Oliphant, Miss Thackeray,
VIM. Black, Geo. Macdonald. Jean In
gelow, Erckmann Chatrian, Ivan Tur-
guenieff, Tennyson, Browning, and many
others-an unequalled array of names.
In the multiplicity of quarterlies,
monthlies and weeklies, all of which it
represents with satisfying completeness
attempted by no other publication. The
LiCing Age is an invaluable economizer
of time, labor and money 1t is pronoun-
ced the ''best of the eclecticsn and. all
things considered, the cheapest and has
become almost Indispensable to every
person or family desiring a satisfactory
compendium of the noteworthy in the
literary world In no other known way.
certainly, can so much of the best work
of the best minds of the age be obtain
ed so conveniently or with so little mon
ey. as through this most comprehensive
of periodicals.
For those who wish the cream of both
home and foreign literature, the publish
ers make some advantageous combina-
tions with other leading periodicals, by
which subscriber is, at n remarkably
small cost, put in possession of the best
current literature of the world. The
prospectus given in another column,
should be examined by ali in selecting
the periodicals for the new year. The
volume begins January Isl, but to those

EDS. JEFF. The merry sound of
sleigh bells once more greets our ears,
and, as we step to the door of our
''sanctum' TO gaze for a few moments
on the attractive scene, with longing eyes
and palpitating heart, because we've got
no rig), we are forcibly reminded of those
good old days of yore, when with hearts
too full for utterance, we tugged our lit
tie hand sled up the ever memorable
hill by the old log school house, to en-
joy the inexpressible pleasure of giving
some bright-eyed, ,rosy-cheeked ducksey-
Jane handsome sleigh ride down part
of the decIivity, and then by making a
slight curve to the right or left, sent our
beloved companion down the remainder
Vi the distance in style more unaffec-
uonate than desirable; but alas, those
nAicson days have silently g'ided into

thoughts We close our observations

ress; We attended on Sabbath eyening
and were favored with sermon fron,

the corner of Queen and ST. Asaph streets |
looked aud wondered "hy all the gd s at once y
what does this mean. This is the workings OF
the Board of Public Works. Lock at the de-
struction of property. The property Of Mrs.

point" where Mr. Clifford, the Superintendent
of Police, has arranged, without water ram,
to make water run up hill. Excellent arrange
mcnt. My honest impression is that the prop

from the corporation damages for injury done.

The National Zetung and Post, of Berlin,
state that Count Won Arnim, has been arrest
cd on charge of embezzliug important State
papers The Prussian Cross Gazette reports
that four Berlin policemen and two function
aries Of the Foreign Office appeared last Sun
day at Count Won Arnim's estate Nasseu-
heid-and demanded number of letters signed
by Bismarck and sent to Won Arnim, while he
was Ambassador. The letters relate to the
Counts private affairs and were to be used as
basis for certain legal proceedings which their
possessor has already instituted. The Count
replied to the officers that the papers were not
10 his house. He refused to tell where they
we're, and declared he would not surrender
them. The police made long and fruitless
search of the premises, and then conducted the
Count to Berlin, where he was lodged in po-
lice station. The Counts residence 10 Berlin
was also searched, but the papers were not
found. Only private letter book was SEIZED.
Members of the Won Arnim family have pc
titioned the Emperor for the prisoners re-
lease, on the ground that his health is bad and
his confinement dangerous.
