Miss Alcott certainly has to remarka-
BILE degree the encouragement most inspir-
ing to an author-that of seeing her books
widely circulated and everywhere sought
for. The extraordinary success of her
Little Women" must be as gratifying to
the talented author as to her publishers,
who even now find the sales increasing
day by day, and are already selling the
forty-sixth thousand of that delightful
story. This last creation of Miss Alcott's
genius has leaped at once into wonderful
favor. Messrs Roberts Brothers, who
publish it in such an elegant and pleasant
form, are hard pushed, even with the re-
sources of their house, to meet the de-
mand, which has now reached the twen-
tieth thousand, and which promises to
make San Old Fashioned Grip the sue
cess of the season.

we must recommence from the beginning.
Every failure is a step to success; every

which glories in having the Lord for its

This is the Celestial City.
