GOLDEN DAYs.-It was a grand,
good thing when the idea was con-
ceived of publishing that boys and
girls weekly, Golden Days. 1t
started three years ago with the aim
of furnishing high-class, moral
weekly, whose contents should be
characterized by their purity and
chasteness, yet entertaining and in
structive. No pains have been spar
ed to carry out these plans, and the
popular recognition of it's merits
shows how much it is appreciated.
The paper is one every parent can
trust thier children with, and will
always be found welcome guest in
every household. Eminent writers
are employed in furnishing serials,
sketches and short stories, while
special features commend themselves
to the reader. The paper is for
sale by all news dealers. James

and as the rascal has been spotted,
he is cautioned to be little care
full in the future, for if caught
he will be treated as he de.
serves, to the full extent of the law.
