What Nobody Ever Told Me. By Mrs. Chauncey I. Filley. 12mo. 1 00

Men of Renown: Character Sketches of Men Distinguished as Patriots, Statesmen, Writers, Reformers, Merchants, etc. By Daniel Wise, D.D. 12mo. 1 00
The pen of the veteran writer of these “sketches” has been busy for many years, and always used for a good purpose. We commend this book especially to the youths whose characters are still in a formative state. It will be found wholesome and interesting reading; entertaining as a novel, and yet describing glorious realities. Some of our growing boys may be encouraged to try for themselves, to follow where then “men of renown” have led the way.
