WOMEN OF THE WAR-We have received
from Messrs. Emery & Holmes, of Pitts
burg, Pa, a copy of the Women of the
War;" by Frank Moore The work is very
neatly printed and well bound, and contains
a number of fine steel engravings of heroic
women who shared the perils of the late
war for the Union, and are entitled to inher
it some of its glories. The work is one that
commends itself to the general reader, and
VIII be welcome visitor to the homes Of
the soldiers and their many friends all over
the country. See advertisement, Wanted,
agents to sell new book, published in an
other column.

AN AMUSING TRICK IN LEGERDEMAIN.

AN AMUSING TRICK IN LEGERDEMAIN.-
A cotemporary describes a new trick, y
called The Printers Delight" as follows;
Take sheet of note paper, fold it care
fully, and enclose bank note sufficiently
large to pay up arrearages. Keep your
eyes on the printer, and if you can detect a
smile the trick is a success.
We have few patrons we should like
if they would try the trick on US at once,
and see if our cotemporary tells the truth.

THE TIMBER BUSINESS. w learn that
the quantity of timber being taken out, in
some localities, is likely to exceed the usual
quantity. If this be the case, the prospect
for high prices is not quite so flattering as it
was several weeks since. Since our last is
sue, ten or twelve inches of snow have fall
len, and at this time not less than from TWEEN
ty-four to thirty inches Of snow remain in the
forests, a depth that is not too favorable for
the hauling of logs aud timber, but is better
than if there was not enough.

How TO Ger AN EDUCATION Boys say

let me say. every boy that wants an educa>
ton, il he will bend bis force to it, can get
just as good a one as he wants. The way
is open. Education does not come through
acadamies, and colleges. and seminaries !;
these are help, but it comes by study and
reading, and comparing, and all the schools
and colleges, and seminares in the world
will not make scholar Of man without
these; and with them . man will be one If
he never sees . college. Aud what 10 true
of boys is true Of girls, and what is true Of
this pursuit is true Of any other. The force
must be from yourself. and you must develop
it. IL is that indomitable IL can" that sets
