"The Latimer Family; or, The Bottle
and the Pledge" by T. S. Arthur, with
eight full page illustrative engravings,
is published this day by 7. B. Peterson
u Brothers, Philadelphia. There is
nothing that will tell upon the human
heart with AS much lorce, and make SO
lhdellble an impression as book-a
story drawn from real life, and faithful
ly illustrated; when the characters are
depicted, not exaggerated, but truth ul-
ly painted to the very life; where all the
temptations and snares are exposed,
and human character, with all it, weak
ness, with all its Wickedness, and with
all It's capabilities, is shown in the light
OF day. Such has been done in "The
Latimer Family; or, The Bottle and the
Pledge," and the author has been sur
passed by no writer, for simple pathos,
easy and natural description, and a
vivid portrayal Of the horrors wrought
by the gigantic evil of lntemperalce.
1t is published in large octave volume,
paper cover, with the edges cut open ali
round, price 81 cents a CODY only, and is
for sale by Robert Clarke g. Co., Cincin-
