Book Notices.

GoDEY's LADY's Book for October
is brilliant number, opening with
a handsome steel engraving OF "The
Lady Of Lyons" This picture illus
trates the story Of Bulwer's famous
drama of that title which has been
carefully transcribed for the maga
zine in a narrative form. "The Lady
of Lyons" is fine piece of work.
The subject is one Of high literary
and dramatic merit, PAULINE being
u character made famous by the au-
thorship of genius and the histrionic
talent of the best actresses the world
over. A novel design in colors for a
sofa pillow or quilt accompanies the
usual illustrations, and the story
matter presents some notable fea-
lures. "The Yoke of Honor" ap-
proachcs final climax, having held
the interest of its readers to the
very end. Miss Emily Read, the
authoress of "Wearithorne," has q
strong dramatic story entitled "An-
othe- Christabel," and Max Wander
Weyde continues his observations
on Phillipa's clever doings: the sub
ject of tins months article is the
decoration Of interiors with rustic
work, leaves and grasses. The more
serious matter in this issue is repre-
sented by Three Letters from He.
rat" There are several pretty po-
ems, and bright story called "Al-
ice and l." The number closes with
full Arm Chair and readable
Book Table. The new subscribers
are promised some rare Inducements,
and the old ones find the attractions
of the book strong enough to hold
their interest. Godey's compares
favorably with the best publications
of its kind in this or any other coun-
try. 1t aims to be, and certainly is,
LADY's Book PAR EXCELLENCE.
The October number of DENoREsr's

able mention. The present number Is
filled with readable articles, among

Cotton seed or cotton seed me al

Cotton seed or cotton-seed meal,
when fed in excess TO milch cows,
has tendency to whiten the milk
and butter. In order to obviate this,
liberal supply of corn meal should
be substituted in feeding. With the
present large corn crop, our Arkan
sas farmers can well afford TO use
freely OF meal for feeding in this
connection, which would doubtless
result in the production of a quality
of butter equal to, il not superior TO

From II Well Known Citizen.

A reporter of the Sun, calling at
the office of Bev. j. j. Bruce, the
courteous and efficient tax collector
of Williamson county, noticed his
improved appearance and asked after
his health. "Well," said Mr.. Bruce,
''during the year 1877 small scab
appeared on my nose, and though it
gradually grew larger, it did not be
come sore or trouble me very much
until the summer of 1878, when the
inside of the sore assumed some
what the appearance of a seed wart,
and began to itch and discharge,
which made me quite uneasy. /
used various salyes. plasters, and
other remedies, none of which did
any permanent good, the sore gradu-
ally spreading, and my anxiety Of
course increasing with the growth of
the cancerous ulcer. In October last
my attention was called to Swift's
Specific Is. S. S. and I began us
ing it. The effect at first was to
cause the sore to assume an angry
look, and in short while TO dis
charge quantities of matter, which
relieved me of the poison, and the
progress towards recovery has been
steady and sure, until TO day have
only the scar and small sore left TO
remind me of the painful ulcer, and
it has ceased to trouble me at all, so
tar as pain and itching are concern.
ed. The Swift Specific has greatly
improved my general health. i do
most cordially commend tins remedy
to all who are suffering as / was"
There is probably no more reliable
high-toned gentlemen in the county
than Mr.. Bruce, and his endorse
ment of Swifts Specific is another
evidence Of the great merit Of the
remedy. Williamson County Texas
