Given Away Within the last few weeks there has been an overwhelming demand for a remarkable book doling with a subject of absorbing interest, a subject that interests both young and old, rich and poor alike. This little volume does not ascend into the realms of viaiona; on the con* trary, it tears aside the curtain that so oftei* obscures our understanding of things, and it deals with plain, oold facts. It enlightens the man who is interested, and instructs and in forms the man who ia ignorant. It tells of new fields and pastures green, and points—without fear or favour—to where those fields and pas- tuna lie. Thia is not a book for the library shelf. It is a book to be read, and can be read by the young as well as the old. It will serve as a fund of information for the former and a source orf inspiration to the latter. For every careful thrifty man or woman it is one of the books that is essential. One's education is not com- plete without having read its thrilling and fas- cinating pages. The subject of money-making by modern methods is fully explained, and con- sidering the invaluable nature of the information imparted, it is done in such a masterly manner tLat your interest is at its highest pitch from beginning to end. .Nearly one hundred thousand copies of this publication have already been distributed, and those who have read it through have sent for copies for their friends.

IM GREAT! ST OF THESE— As a moral being, ill the total compass of hit relations to this world's duties, in the largeness 'and diffusiveness of his charity, in the gracioua- ness of his condescension to inferior intellects, I am disposed, after a deliberate review of my own entire experience, to pronounce him the beat man, the nearest in his approaches to an ideal standard of excellence, that I bave known or Nad of, wrote Do Quinoey concerning Charleb Lamb. In the mingled purity—a childlike purity and the benignity of his nature, I again ex- press my own deep feeling of the truth, when say he recalled to my mind the image and cha- racter of St. John the Evangelist—of him who *as at once the beloved apostle; and also, mora I Mouliarly. the apostle of lov* <
