Lives Of Cleveland and Hendricks.

Announcement Is made of the rapid
completion of Pictorial work COM
prising the Lives of the Presidential
Candidates on the Democratic ticket,
written by the veteran author, Col.
by Frank Triplett, and published N. ID.
Thompson Il Co., st. Louis, Mo-, and
New York. This work is sold through
agents exclusively. It il designed, not
only to serve the popular taste and
want In giving, exhaustively, the facts
In the boyhood manhood of the Cam
didates-their private Lives and Pub
lie Services-but to have more endur-
ing interest than the ordinary Cam
paign book. To this end the publishers
have engaged on the work corps Of
skilled designers and engravers to ele-
gantly and profusely illustrate the
scenes and incidents In the lives of
these eminent men, now sd prominent
ly before the people. Personal anec-
dotes and "reminiscences will constitute
leading and certainly a most enter
tanning and instructive feature OF this
timely work.
Col. Triplett has marked ability, and
enjoys especial distinction as Bio
graphical writer. While exhaustive
In the recital Of facts, his power Of an
osy ycsSt esAsN nAc hSCh ihol8uU AntO tHc
philosophy of events and measures,
give him special prominence among
American writers of personal history.
1t ia not too much to say that
that he Is better prepared for the work
In hand than any other American au-
thor.
The books from his pen, of which
several have met the popular taste and
been more than ordinarily successful.
They have given him high rank among
American authors, and the public men
Ofthe day. This has given Kim unsur-
passed facilities for procuring all the
material for fascinating interest, beauty
and profuseness of illustration, and Of
comprehensiveness of fact, 1t will COM
mend itself TO every vOter.
To the book agent this rare compiIa-
ton of authentic history, pictorial ILL
ustration and brilliant authorship, will
ut once suggest the universal demand
1t will create, and also the advantages
interest 1t has over the ordinary Cam.
paign book, and the grand opportunity
1t offers for profitable agAcy. We ad-
vertise 1t In another column.
