. Humour without vulgarity and ' instruction, combined with geniality is found in tho inimitable "Punch," the journal whch.ig.so essentially British in sentiment that it is found in every part of the British Empire. For long years past "Mr. Punch" and his drolleries have provided just that relief from dull care which, is required at times. In caricature, word-picture, and in verso tho happenings in all parts of , the - world —the- history-making events—are faithfully portrayed by "Punch."' There is a humorous side to every picture, and perhaps in no oaso is this more exemplified than in connection with the_ ipolitical intrigues, the false, mendacious, bombastic, arid hypocritical utterances, the fake'd ports/ and general cant and humbug that lias been so much in evidence in , conneotion, with the great-war. "Mr. Punch" has in his own super-excellent' way let a flood of satirical light on the many phases of the conflict, and every Britisher _ will find genuine amusement in perusing the volumes of "Punch" for the war period, while providing books for his library which will never fail to interest and amuse. By arrangement with' the publishers, The Dominion enn, for a limited time, pffcr to its readers a-special inducement to become possessors of the volumes from July, 1914, to December, 1915, and the weekly parts for 1916.' Ordinarily, tho, cost of these would be fifty-six shillings, but : a limited nuhiber of orders can be booked for 425. The first" volume is supplied immediately the order is received and the balance of the volumes and parts aTe sent from London direct, i For threo half-crowns extra the 'parts for-1916 will be supplied bound, making five volumes in all for . 495. fid. Parts for 1917 posted weekly . as issued, will cost 18s. 6d. extra, so that for 68s. "Punch" can he obtained -for.the whole/ period from July, 1914, to December, 1917.' The oiler is unique and not likely to recur, and early application is-necessary from anyone desirous of'participating.
