book on building, and have derived no
little pleasure from an examination Of
its varied contents. Aside from It's plates
representing all the mouldings, castings,
basebOsrds, balusters, newell posts, hand

and sold by Messrs. Hink !; Co., which

the book, IL contains tho ground plans
and elevations Of about ninety of the
finest residences, school houses, ETC., in
the vicinity OF Cincinnati. 1t Is a book
which the intelligent carpenter and bull.

can be consulted with great advantage
by any one contemplating the erection
OF building, whether business house or

work, the plates OF which alone cost
several thousand dollars, Messrs. Hinkle
* Co., have displayed an enterprise that
