Good Books.

In every household, warnings have

tofore favorable are turned against this
stuff, a New York publisher now furn-
ishes us, through Cochrane, the best
books of all languages at prices which
defy competition even when compared
to trash, and in type clear and distinct;
with bindings strong and tasteful such
as befit the garments of wisdom and
practical worth. Here may be found
Poe's Prose Tales more absorbing than
