"Ohl l IN so glad, Charley" ant
Grace sprang up from the sofa, anC
clapped her hands gleefully as child
The young man gazed up into the
face of his betrothed, and thought
how very sweet and childlike she
seemed, with that joy-light breaking
into her eyes.

fond, half significant smile, and, blush
ing at her own enthusiasm, returned
quietly to his side. r r.y ,.s

have looked down in eoldness and
scorn upon her, how many pages o
her life have been darkened and wet
ted together with very bitter tears
YOU would be glad as l am, at the good
fortune that has come to her at last.
"Well, Oracle" answered the young
man, with a little emphasis of natural
indignation running through his tones

HARPER'S STORY BOOKS. A MONTHLY SERIES OF MAR.
RArIvEs, BIOGRAPHIES, and TALES, for the nstruc-
ton and entertainment Of the Young. By JACOB
AB0rT. Embellished With numerous and beautiful
Engravings.
TeRMs.-Each number of "Harper's Story Books"
will contain 16O pages in small quarto form, very
beautifully Illustrated, and printed on superfne calen-
dered paper.
The series may be obtained of Booksellers, Periodical
Agents, and Postmasters, or from the Publishers, at
Three Dollars a year, or Twenty five Cents a Number
gilt. subscriptions may commence with any Number.
The postage upon ''Harper's Story Botxs," which
must Paid quarterly IN advance, is Two Cents. s.Har-
per's Magazine" and "Harpers Story Books will be
sent to one Address, for one year, for FIVE DOLLARS
The Quarterly Volumes, as completed, neatly bound
in Cloth gilt, are sold at one Dollar each, and Muslin

back Numbers uniformly bound, at Twenty-Five Cents
each.

lin," and 'The Studio"
They are the best children's books ever published
They Srisely avoid the introduction or discussion of
religious topics, yet are such as christian parents may
unhesitatingly place in their children's hands. The
price is marvelously low. Twenty-Five cents a number
makes it about six pages Of print and two excellent
engravings for each cent Of the money.
The engraving alone without a line of letter press,
would be cheap at the price. One good thing these
story Books will certainly accomplish: henceforth in
feror authorship and used-up worn out illustrations
can not be palmed off on children. They have samples
here of what is best for them, and they are shrewd
enough not to put up with any thing Of lower quality.

We have heard SO many fathers aud mothers who
recognize the pleasant duty of guiding the minds OF
