LIVE HOME JOuRNAL-NoTABLE CHANGE
Last October, Hearth asd Home passed into the
hands of Messrs. Orange Judd & Co., of 245 Broad
way, New York, the well known publishers Of the
Amcrican AgricRlfsrist- Journal long without
rival in sterling value and circulation. The mar
kcd improvements then expected to appear in
Hearth and Home have been fully realized, and it
is now one Of the choicest Illustrated journals
anywhere issued for the family circle-adapted to
both the juvenilc and adult people, and meeting
the special wants of the housrkerper. Besides it
supplies very useful chapters for the garden and
farm and an important news sheet, giving val
liable resrme of the news for a week, up to the
moment of Issue. From $500 to $500 worth OF
yery five engravings beautify each weekly num-
Der. We notice now a still further mark of enter
prise on the part of the publishers; they have Sc
cured the exclusive editorial services of Edward
Eggleston, SO widely and favorably known by his
writings in Scribaer's Moafkly, and many other
Magazines and Journals, and especially as the
chief experimenting Editor Of the Ner York In
dependent for some time past. With this notable
addition to previously large and strong editorial
force, Hearth and Home can not fail to merit and
command prominent place in every household,
in city, village, and country. Specimen copies
can doubtless be obtained Of the publishers, as
above. Terms only 50 year. Single numbers
cents Hearth and Home and american Agr'caifu-
rist together, s. year. Better add one or both
of them to your supply Of reading; they are each
worth infinitely more than the small cost.
~ The August number of RAND, McNAILY& q
Co.'S Railcay Guide is at hand. In addition to the
vast fund of useful information furnished, this
number contains, as a frontispiece, magnihcent
view of Niagara Falls-from the Canada side
which, for display of artistic taste and sample
of engraving, we have rarely seen equaled.

things, supersede all others. 1t not only gives
the time cards of 300 railroads, but in addition,
newspapers, banks, leading manufacturing inte-
rests and hotels of $500 railway and river towns
