To-DAY.-We call attention to the
advertisement of 7O-Day in another col
umn. This paper seems to have laid
out path for itself, aiming to furnish a
fnely-illustrated paper at price that
places it within reach of all Intelligent
readers, and sparing no expense to Sc
cnre the best reading matter for its
readers. Added to this, the sound judg-
ment and exquisite taste that is shown
in its selection of Premium Chromos en-
ab'es Agents to offer inducement that
are irresistible. Last year Mrs. Ander-
sons "Just So High" was the subject,
and few thought it could be ezcelled,
but now the publishers come forward
with another charming child picture,
"Little Sunshine" by the same artist.
aud also Chrome of one of the celebra-
ted Birket Fosters most beautiful land
scapes in water-collor. Each subscriber
has choice of either one of the above
named chromos, and We do not exaggre-
rate when we say that neither one could
be purchased for less than seven dollars,
The publishers wish agents everywhere
and offer liberal inducements.
