AT last we are treated to novelty in
the way of almanac-making. Dr. j. G.
Aver q Co., the we'll known manufactur-
ing chemists Of Lowell, Mass, send us
their almanac for 1889 in the shape of a
good sized book, embracing editions il
English, calculated for the various sec.
tions of the United States, the Dominion
of Canada, India, South Africa and Aus
tralia; also editions in nine other langua,
ges. The volume contains also speci
men pages of pamphlets issued by the
company in II languages not represented
by the almanacs, including Greek, Turk
ish, Armenian, Chinese, Burmese anG
Hawaiian-21 languages in all. From
the interesting preface we learn that ne
fewer than 100000 of these almanacs
are printed yearly. Thus placing the
work as far ahead of any other of the
kind in circulation and value as Ayers
sarsaparilla is ahead of all others in merit
and popularity. Be sure to secure copy
of this fayorite almanac at your druggist
1t is a species of "yellow-covered htera-
ture" which no family should be without.
