 From the large number of books protesting to teach the German language it is difficult to make any selection. But for young chil- dren nothing has come to our notice which in our opinion has so much to recommend it to the public as Dreyspring's First German Cumulative Reader. The narrative is con- strueted in the plainest and simplest Ian guage, the events and casualties following each other in rapid succession, and the youth ful imagination is assisted by numerous ap- proprfate illustrations. Should this First Reader" prove a success 1t is the authors purpose to extend it into series by adding to it three others of a higher grade. AL though this book is primarily intended for children, yet it might be used to advantage by adults as an introduction to German. Tt is published by D.

 The stories of StIvanus Cobb, jr., are widely known through the columns of the New York Ledger, but his works have not until now been published in book form. The first to appear is one of his best, stOrion, the Gold Beater." IL is story of New York life, abounding in thrilling scenes and start ling deneuements, keeping the interest of the reader from the beginning to the end. 'sThe Deserter" and 'From the Ranks are two in- teresting stories of army and barrack life by Captain Charles King, U. s. A. The plots are well worked out and the style is easy and pleasing. The volume will well repay a pe- rusal. Both the above and "Orien" are pub lished by Cassell & Co.,, New York, and are for sale in this city by Judd the bookseller.

Glasgow has system of automatic tele- phone call bells. There are seventy six of the boxes scattered about the city, and every subscriber has key to them. A non-sub- seriber wanting to use them must first ring up the exchange and asks if the connection he desires can be made. If it can, he drops the fee, which is three pennies or six, accor- ding to the distance he wants to talk, into hole in the box. The pennies as they fall break circuit and ring bell at the central office. When the bell has rung the required number of times the central office makes the connection. At the end of the three minutes allowed for conversation the connection is broken automatically.

" Love Your Enemies.v

When the Eighth Vermont Regiment
was in Louisiana one of the officers
was taken very i'll and left in charge of
a picket post. A woman living near
by urged him to come to her house, as
the climate was malarious He de-
clined her hospitality, but before long
became so much worse that his com
panions carried him to the house
in almost a dying condition. Mrs.
Sparks-ths was the good woman's
name-perceived his almost desperate
case, but had no medicines, nor could
any be procured nearer than New Or
leans, ten miles away. What could she
do for this enemy? Her husband was
inlirm, and the few negroes who re-
NAMED to her were old and decrepit.
Moreover, it was late in the afternoon,
and rain was falling heavily, but some
thing she must do, even though the
sick man was in arms against her gov
eminent. She sent one of her serv-
ants to the house of neighbor, five
miles distant, and this woman, vio-
lent secessionist, went herself to New
Orleans, through a drenching rain, for
the medicine. She travelled fifteen
miles in the storm and the darkness,
and crossed the Mississippi river twice,
and all to save the life of an enemy.
The officer remained in the house six
weeks and was cared for most assidu-
ously. Such deeds are worth recount
ing; they go far to redeem the horrors
of war.-1he Presbyterian.
