MUTUAL ASSURANCE WITH MODERATE PREMIUMS.

SCOTTISH PROVIDENT

INSTITUTION,

6 ST. ANDREW SQUARE, EDINBURGH.

THIS SOCIETY differs in its principles from other Offices. Instead of charging rates higher than are necessary, and returning the excess in the shape of periodical Bonuses, it gives from the first as large an Assurance as the Premiums will with safety bear reserving the "Wliole Surplus for those Members (a majority of the whole) who have lived long enough to secure the Common Fund from loss.

A Policy of ;£i20O to ^"1250 may thus at most ages be had for the Premium usually charged for (with profits) ^"1000 only ; while, by reserving the surplus, large additions have been given to the Policies which participate.

At last division of Profits, Policies for ^1000 sharing a first time were increased to sums varying from ;£ii8o to ^1300 or more, and others to ^1400, ^1700, and upwards.

Farther additions will be made at the end of the present year. The steady progress of the Business, and the rapid Increase of the Funds due (in great measure to the low rate of Expenses), give good reason to anticipate very favourable results.

* A person of 30 may secure £1000 at death by a yearly payment, during life, of £20 15a, which would generally elsewhere secure £800 only, instead of £1000. Or he may secure the same sum of £1000 by twenty-one. yearly payments of £27 13s 4d, being thus free of payment after age 50.

t At age 40 the Premium ceasing at 60 is, for £1000, £33 14s 2d, being about the same as most Offices require during the whole term of life. Before that time the Policy will have shared in at least one division of profits.

The FUNDS (increased in year by £341,000) are now £6,000,000.

Only Two Offices in the Kingdom, both older, have\as large a Fund. The Increase of the Funds in last five years exceeds that of any other Office.

The Society has taken a leading part in the removal of restrictions and grounds of challenge. The rules relating to foreign residence, revival of Policies, early payment of claims, etc., are specially liberal.

The Surrender Values (given in accordance with an original fixed Table) " compare favourably with those of other first-class Offices."

Reports, containing Tables of Rates, may be had on application.

dftitorml itoti«.

IN issuing the Fourth Annual Edition of Carment's Directory, we have to tender our sincere thanks for the largely increased support the publication received during the past year, the circulation of which has reached a point hitherto unattained by any publication of the kind in the district.

Encouraged by this, we resolved to still further enhance the value of our already useful work. The outcome of this has been the addition of a Professions' and Trades' Directory for Dalkeith. As a means of reference, this will, we doubt not, prove most useful.

Our best thanks are also due to our friends and corres- pondents who have always been so ready to assist us, and to the Editors of the various newspapers and journals who have so favourably reviewed our work in the past.

DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIONS.

TOWN HALL, BRUSSELS.

The Hotel de Ville of Brussels is the most interesting edifice in Brussels and one of the noblest and most beautiful buildings in Belgium. The building dates from the fifteenth century, and is 178 feet long, 165 feet broad, the handsome tower being 350 feet high.

THE GLASGOW INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.

If all things continue to go as well as they are doing the Glasgow International Exhibition will be opened in May, 1S88. It is hoped that the Queen may grace the opening by coming to the city. The Fine Arts Committee have now issued their prospectuses applicable to the sale and loan sections. Her Majesty the Queen is patron, and H.R.H. the Prince of Wales is honorary president. The corresponding members include Mr. L. Alma-Tadema and Mr. Hamo Thornycroft, and the committee com- prises many of our leading citizens, the Hon. Sir James King, Lord Provost, being Chairman of the Executive Council. The Art Section is to include sculpture (original works in marble, bronze, etc., terra-cotta, wax, and plaster of paris), oil paintings, water-colour drawings, works in black and white (charcoal, crayon, and sepia draw- ings, etc.), engravings and etchings (steel and copper engravings, lithographs, etc.), architectural drawings and models, and objects illustrative of Scottish history and archaeology. The Art Galleries are to be ten in number, occupying an area equal to 3200 square yards, and affording about 2450 lineal feet of hanging space. It is pro- posed that objects illustrative of Scottish history and archaeology shall be placed in a separate building specially constructed for the purpose. Electric light will be used throughout the Exhibition, and the mode of its application in the Fine Art Galleries will obviate the risks incidental, under other conditions, to the use of artificial lights. It may be added that, while detailed arrangerneuts are still only in prospect, it is contemplated that music, both choral and orchestral, shall enter largely into the daily life of the Exhibition. It is to be hoped that nothing will occur to mar the success of an Exhibition to which the citizens generally look forward with great interest, and which its promoters are earnestly seeking to carry forward on the highest as well as the most popular lines.

THE BERNESE OBERLAND. The Highlands of Berne include the most celebrated peaks in the middle of Switzer- land, among which are the Wetterhorn, Schreckhorn, Finsteraarhorn, Viescherhorn, Eiger, Monch, Jungfrau, etc. These mountains, seen on a clear day, say from the terrace in front of the Cathedral at Berne, form a panorama which can never be forgotten; while their great height does not appear too overwhelming, although they are mostly from 12,000 to 14,000 feet high. The old town of Berne itself is well worth seeing, the mediaeval architecture being most curious and interesting.

ST. PETER'S, ROME. While we give the palm to the Colosseum as the most wonderful ancient buildtijLg in Europe, and to the Alhambra as the most wondeiful mediaeval building, there fts no doubt that the Cathedral of St. Peter in Rome, although not the most extensive modern building in Europe, is by far the most magnificent. On entering the Piazza Rusticucci, opposite the fagade of St. Peter's, one is struck with the immense space, broken only by the silver spray of its glittering fountains and by the obelisk in the centre. The height of the whole obelisk is 132 feet, but of the shaft only 83 feet. On each side of the piazza are magnificent colonnades having 2S4 columns, and they enclose an area of 777 feet. The height of St. Peter's from the pavement to the top of the dome is 426 feet, and the whole building is so immense that if it were possible St. Paul's in London could easily be accommodated inside of it. The cost of the main building alone is said to have been above ten millions sterling, and the annual cost for repairs is £6300. Mendelssohn writes: " The building of St. Peter's surpasses all powers of description. It appears to me like some great work of nature, a forest, a mass of rocks, or something similar, for I never can realise the idea that it is the work of man. You strive to distinguish the ceiling as little as the canopy of heaven. You lose your way in St. Peter's ; you take a walk in it and ramble till you are quite tired. When divine service is performed and chaunted there you are not aware of it till you come quite close. The angels in the Baptistry are enormous giants, the doves colossal birds of prey. You lose all sense of measurement with the eye or proportion, and yut who does not feel his heart expand when standing under the dome and gazing up to it?" "The interior bursts upon our astonished gaze resplendent in light, magnificence, and beauty beyond all that imagination can conceive. Its apparent smallness of size, however, mingled some decree of surprise and even disappointment with my admiration, but as I walued slowly up its long nave, empanelled with the rarest and richest marbles, and adorned with every art of sculpture and taste, and caught through the lofty arches opening views of chapels and tombs and altars of surpassing splendour, I felt that it was indeed unparalleled in beauty, in magnitude, in magnificence, and one of the noblest and most wonderful of the works of man " (Eaton's " Rome ").

r I lHIS historic castle is built on a rock 22 yards from the shore, at the south-east -*- end of the lake of Geneva, and is close to the watering place called Montreux. Who has not read Byron's poem, "The Prisoner of Chillon?" This gloomy old castle dates from the tenth century, and is one of the most striking objects on the banks of the lake.

Chillon ! thy prison is a holy place,

And thy sad floor an altar— for 'twas trod Until his very steps have left a trace,

Worn, as if the cold pavement were a sod, By Bonivard ! may none those marks efface,

For they appeal from tyranny to God.

KITCHEN GARDENER'S CALENDAR.

January. This is the month for preparing early vegetables, whether by

the hot-bed or in the natural ground. If you have any lettuce plants in

frames, let them, -whenever the weather is fine, enjoy the open air, and even

in wet weather do not exclude the air altogether; but should the frost be

rigorous, let them be closely covered up. If the weather be open,

asparagus, radishes, carrots, spinage, parsley, <fec. , for early use may be put

in preparation this month. The soil must be prepared for various crops,

such as peas and beans ; some kinds of the former may be sown in a

favourable state of the weather.

Holidays are marked thus*.

FEBRUARY begins on Wednesday— 29 Days.

April.— Let the cucumber and melon hot-beds, which were made a month or two ago, be examined, in case they should not have attained the proper heat. Sow these plants early in the month; transplant lettuces; thin radishes; sow round radishes and spinage ; plant out full crops of cabbages and savoys; still sow onions and leeks. Sow spinage for a succession crop in May and June; it will yet succeed. Where a constant supply of the plant is required, they ought to be sown once a fortnight, as they soon run into seed. Beet, if omitted previously, may still be sown. Plant slips and cuttings of kitchen herbs, but take care not to give too much water to thyme. Finish the graft- ing of all trees this month. Plant strawberries in edgings ; add climbing plants of all kinds. Begin the hoe culture of killing weeds wherever practicable.

July.— Prepare ground for the autumn and winter crops. Plant your prin.

cipal crops of savoys and winter cabbages. Transplant brocoli, and sow seed

for a late spring crop. Plant late crops of kidney beans. Sow onions to stand

the winter, but this not before the end of the month. About the middle of

the month you may sow some carrots, which will come into use at Michael-

mas, and continue good till the spring ; the same remarks apply to turnips.

Thin, transplant, and sow lettuces, winter spinage, and several kinds of

radishes, particularly the turnip rooted. As celery is a water plant, and

requires to grow quick, it should be kept alive by wet. Lift all winter

onions that are full grown, and prepare mushroom spawn.

September. This is the season for providing mushroom spawn, and

dung for the mushroom beds. The spawn is found chiefly in dry old rotten

dunghills ; it is a white fibrous substance spreading in the dung. The

spawn must be kept from wet. Plant lettuces in frames for winter use ;

transplant cauliflowers. The young cabbage plants which were sown the

first or second week of August for an early crop next summer and autumn

should be planted into nursery beds. Continue to plant celery in trenches,

and earth up the plants as they advance. Continue to gather seeds. Cardoons,

which will now have made considerable progress, must be earthed up for

blanching, their leaves being previously tied up carefully and regularly.

Cover asparagus with manure. Plant cuttings of gooseberries, currants,

raspberries, and strawberries. Remove hardy evergreens, shrubs, &c.

November. Get everything out of the land this month which is not

intended to stand during the winter. In the middle, or towards the end of

this month, is a proper season to plant early beans, to succeed such as may

have been planted in October. The same direction may be applied to peas.

Brocoli may be laid down, and their heads pointed to the north, especially

the high growing kinds. Where the asparagus beds were not cleaned and

earthed during the last month, it must now be done. Artichokes should

now receive their winter dressing. The beginning of this month you should

take up carrots and other roots to be preserved in sand, &c, for the use of

the kitchen during the winter months. After the middle, or towards the

latter end of this month, according to the state of the weather, will be the

time to put fires in the hot-houses, particularly in the evenings.

DECEMBER begins on Saturday-31 Days.

December. Remove decayed leaves from the cauliflower plants, and let the plants have free air during the day. If the weather be dry and open,, radishes and carrots, for an early crop, may be sown. Keep up the succession of peas ; the kind called hotspur is one of the best for this season. Plant beans now, if you have not planted them earlier. Attend carefully to have the mushroom beds defended from frost and wet. Take advantage of the first day, if not frosty, to earth up such of the celery as may be in a fit state for it; and see that the plants are pretty dry before you begin earthing. Carefully examine fruit which has been laid up in the house.

EULE TO FIND THE WEIGHT OF CATTLE.

Take the girth behind the shoulder, and the length from the fore part of the shoulder blade along the back to the bone at the tail, which is in a vertical line with the buttock, both in feet. Multiply the square of the girth by 5 times its length, and divide by 21 : the quotient is the weight, nearly, of the four quarters, in imperial stones of 14 lbs. avoirdupois.

The Gates of Eden: A Story of Endeavour.

Second Edition.

' The subject of Miss Swan's " Gates of Eden" is one which demands, and receives from her hand, a skilful treatment. John Bethune rears his motherless boys in accordance with a preconceived plan. The elder is to be a minister, the younger is to follow the plough. Circumstances seem to favour his scheme ; for the future minister has, it appears, the advantage in appearance, in manners, and in ability. But the real truth is different. The depth of character and the best mental gifts really belong to the latter. How the young man, conscious of his power, yet stedfastly walks along the appointed path till he is free to choose, and how, once free, he enters on his own way and overcomes all its difficulties, is very well told in these pages. We have not often seen a better portraiture than is that of the two brothers. Miss Swan is too skilful to make the weaker of the two a mere foil to the stronger. He, too, with all his faults, has virtues of his own, and the reader is glad to see them reaching their true development before the story is finished. The episode of the recovery of Willie Lorraine, a repentant prodigal, is full of pathos ; as is also the love-story of Mary Campbell. The "Gates of Eden" is a worthy successor to the author's " Aldersyde."' Spectator.

' A distinct success. . . . We follow the career of twin brothers through the book Sandy and Jamie Bethune. Sandy, apparently getting all the brains, is sent to St. Andrews to study, and his conceits and fine talk on his visits home are humorously described. Then we see him transformed into the Bev. Alexander Bethune of Lochbroom. Jamie seems fit only for the harrows and the loom at first, but Aunt Susan always sees deeper than this, and we read with interest the story of his endeavour to rise to higher things. His character is well drawn, the earnest, noble soul following God's leading.' British Weekly.

' The " Gates of Eden" is, like most of its predecessors, a homely tale of Scottish life and manners. The homely dialect is given with admirable fidelity, and there is much truthful delineation of character.' Scotsman.

' The underlying conception that of a contrast between two brothers, the one brilliant, clever, and superficial, but needing stern discipline before the real strength of his nature can be evoked ; the other modest, unselfish, but earnest and indomitable is strongly grasped from the first, and is wrought out with such power and consistency as to hold the reader's attention by a kind of spell. The book is one which everybody can read with pleasure, and from which many will profit.'— Scottish Leader.

' One of the most dramatically rendered scenes of the book is that in which the death of old Peter Bethune is described. If the author had never written anything else, this part of the story would justify her claim to the place in the front rank of our most gifted literary artists.' Northern Ensign.

' A happy note is struck at the very outset of the " Gates of Eden," and the quality of the good beginning is maintained throughout. . . . The best of all the stories that we have yet received from the pen of its accom- plished authoress.' Kilmarnock Standard.

'Bemarkably beautiful, noble in spirit, rich in pathos, strong in the triumph of an earnest purposeful life.' Daily Mail.

Edinburgh, Past and Present. By J. B. Gillies.

With Notes of the County, Historical, Descriptive, and Scientific. By Rev. James S. Mill, Flora Masson, and Dr. Geikie.

'"Edinburgh, Past and Present," by J. B. Gillies, is a handsome book a sweet, dainty, and most pleasure-giving memorial of Edinburgh. The letterpress is first rate. Mr. Gillies is a skilled writer, and he knows Edinburgh History. In this volume, in a style at once simple and graphic, he links the past with the present ; and without any parade of antiquarian lore he tells all, or nearly all, that is worth repeating regarding the public and domestic history of the capital and its famous buildings and institutions.' The Daily Review.

' Mr. J. B. Gillies, if we mistake not, is a writer who already has attained a large share of popularity by his descriptions of storied scenes in the Modern Athens. Under this impression we may, perhaps, congratulate the " Benjie " of old upon the handsome appearance of "Edinburgh, Past and Present.' Throughout the two hundred and sixty pages will be found a large number of illustrations, very beautifully executed, and adding no inconsiderable interest to the spirited text.' The Publisher 's Circular.

' The book cannot be too highly praised.' The Inverness Courier.

'Eeadable from end to end, and in many places extremely amusing.'— St. James's Gazette.

' The illustrations of the book are gems of the art. No pains have been spared to make the book complete. It is finely and spiritedly written ; it is eloquently embellished. Every American visitor of "Old Edinboro" will surely want this charming work.' Bound Lake Journal, U.S.A.

' A better man than Mr. Gillies, the author of the letterpress, no one could desire as a guide through Old Edinburgh, for no man knows it better. Eeaders of the famous "Edinburgh Supplement" of the "Graphic" must know his handiwork. The illustrations are the very things one would wish for in such a book.' Aberdeen Journal.

' This is a spendidly got up book, both internally and externally. Author and publishers, artist and engraver, printers and binder have all combined to make the work worthy of the subject.' Kelso Mail.

'The vignette illustrations interspersed among the letterpress are charming. As a drawing-room book it is highly attractive.' Spectator.

' Everything in and about the Old Town of Edinburgh is interesting, and that interest is very much enhanced in the present work by the numerous and well-executed woodcuts which adorn its pages. The author has earned the thanks of his contemporaries by the able manner in which he has woven into his work the most salient points of Edinburgh History. Its style and typo- graphy are of that high order which we might expect from a firrn of publishers of such repute.' Western Antiquary.

' This is an elegantly got up and altogether very interesting volume; and numerous as are the books about Old and New Edinburgh, there is nothing in existence so well adapted to the requirements of the general reader.

The Story of Old Whiddy; or, How Little Doris

began to make Her Mark in Life. By Zala.

Rough, a Clever Dog. A True Story of his Life.

By Mrs. Jaevis.

' Two companion stories for young people, which would make a good present for brother and sister.' Scotsman.

' Two excellent books for the young, attractively illustrated. The intention of the writers, it may be stated, is not merely to interest their youthful readers, but to induce them to treat with kindness and consideration their faithful, intelligent, four-footed friends. We wish the books every success in this laudable object.' Border Advertiser.

' The writers of these charming stories are doing great service to the cause which the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals have at heart.' Haddington Courier.

' "Bough" is a true story of a clever dog, told in a most humorous and taking vein by the author of " The Autobiography of a Eobin." She proves that Bough was no ordinary fellow, and makes him tell the story of his wonderful career like the clever dog he is.' Dundee Courier.

' These are companion volumes which enforce upon children the duty of kindness towards animals, and the publishers deserve credit for the dainty dress in which they appear.' Dumfries Courier.

'We commend " The Story of Old Whiddy" as a book of rare merit. The story is sure to please the young folks, especially those who are fond of domestic pets. It is not a mere book of pictures though these are beautiful and plentiful they are illustrations, and make the narrative more real and vivid. ' Orcadian.

' Handsome little volumes, . . . very pleasantly written, . . . calculated to teach excellent lessons. They will be appreciated by children when more expensive gifts might not be. No parent or friend will regret putting them nto the hands of the young folks.' Brechin Advertiser.

' Wonderful Old Whiddy ! Let all the children read his life.'— Weekly Post.

'"Bough" is worthy to be classed with "Bab and his Friends." "Old Whiddy" is also delightful.' Presbyterian Witness, Halifax.

' Both stories are as graceful and pretty as anything of the kind we have seen for many a long day.' Manchester Examiner.

' An exceptionally good little story for the nursery library ; bairns should leam to know what a dog is.' Aberdeen Journal.

' Pleasantly and simply written, and containing many picturesque details of family life, both books will be appreciated.' Scottish Leader.

'Books for very little folks that deserve special notice.' Nevjcastle Chronicle.

' If any real dog possessed the accomplishments so amusingly described by Mrs. Jarvis, it must have been a canine genius indeed.' The Graphic.

' Both books, which are nicely got up, may help to train young people in works of mercy.' Liverpool Mercury.

'Bough's biography discloses features, incidents, tricks, and traits which are certainly novel and, beyond question, interesting.' Zoophilist.

'"Old Whiddy" is one of the most charmingly simple pussy-cat stories we have met with. We have been delighted with the pictures.' Aberdeen Journal.

' Both stories are clever, and are certain to be appreciated by the young people, for whose entertainment they have been designed.' News Letter,

Aldersyde. A Border Story of Seventy Years

Ago. By Annie S. Swan.

The Authoress has received the following Autograph Letter from Mr. Gladstone:

4 10 Downing Street, Whitehall, April 16, 1883.

' Dear Madam, I have now read the work which you did me the honour to present to me with a very kind inscription, and I feel obliged to add a line to my formal acknowledgment already sent. I think it beautiful as a work of art, and it must be the fault of a reader if he does not profit by the perusal. Miss Nesbit and Marget will, I hope, long hold their places among the truly living sketches of Scottish character. I remain, your very faithful and obedient W. E. GLADSTONE.'

' Sir Walter Scott himself never delineated a character more true to life than Janet Nesbit.' Stirling Observer.

'Beaders who can follow Scotch idioms easily will be moved by the narra- tive of Janet Nesbit's life. . . . Incidents common enough, but eloquent of character and well told.' Athenaeum.

'Full of quiet power and pathos.'— A cademy.

'She has brought us into the presence of a pure and noble nature, and has reminded us that a life of sorrow and disappointments has its deep compensa- tions, and its glorious meaning.' Literary World.

' If there is anything more noteworthy than another in this cleverly con- structed story, it is the vigorous raciness with which the vernacular is employed. ' Haddington Courier.

' A tale of deep interest; it is a work of true genius.' United Presbyterian Magazine.

' Hurrah ! our good Scotch stories, with their dear rough old vernacular, are not going to die out just yet, or, if at all, they are going to die hard.' S.S. Teachers' Magazine.

' Beautifully conceived and exquisitely written.' Airdrie Advertiser.

' One of the best Scotch tales that has appeared for many years. ... A wealth of local colouring and fineness of touch rarely to be met in these days of painfully analytic writing.' Kilmarnock Herald.

' A book we must read through at a sitting. It lays hold of our interest in the first page, and sustains it to the end.' Daily Review.

' Deserves to occupy a prominent and permanent place among Scottish works of imagination. . . . Not a dull page in the book ; while not a paragraph will be skipped lest some of the finer touches should be missed.' Kelso Chronicle.

' We have not read a fresher, livelier, or more wholesomely stimulating story for many a day.' Kilmarnock Standard.

'As a type of the sound-hearted, high-spirited Scottish gentlewoman, who can sustain her dignity on a poor pittance, and who is tender and true without any pretence of high sentiment, Janet Nesbit is a fine portrait of a noble woman.' N. B. Daily Mail.

' The central figure in the narrative is Miss Janet Nesbit, of Aldersyde, a young gentlewoman who is early called to a life of self-sacrifice. This she humbly accepts, working out the problem with so much sincerity and faith- fulness that the grey morning is followed by a bright day.' Christian Leader.

Carlowrie ; or, Among Lothian Folk. By Annie

S. Swan.

'A treat to the lovers of Scottish fiction, the scenery and local truth of the dialect and " modes of thought " are all that can be desired ; and the book is no small addition to the literature which endeavours to depict a phase of country life fast passing away.' Athenasum.

1 Will certainly enhance the reputation of the authoress of " Aldersyde." ' Liverpool Mercury.

' The characters are sketched with more freedom and with more keenness also than those in "Aldersyde," and this comparison is just as severe a test as could be applied.' Daily Review.

' The delineation of the house-mother, Mrs. Dalrymple, strikes us as being one of the very finest portraits to be found in the whole extent of our national literature of a clever, sunny-hearted, and utterly unselfish Scotchwoman of the rustic middle class.' Kilmarnock Journal.

1 The interest of the reader is enchained from first to last.' The Christian.

' The book possesses a quiet idyllic charm which it is impossible to resist. . . . The breezy freshness and pervading refinement of the story will hardly fail to please all readers of simple tastes.' Academy.

' " Carlowrie " is already one of the pronounced successes of the season. All the Scottish newspapers, with one characteristic exception, are delighted with this tale of the Lothians. That it is a study from the life, executed with the delicate insight that comes from loving sympathy, hardly admits of a doubt ; and the delineation of the farmer's gentle wife one of nature's true nobility is a masterpiece of the purest pathos.' Christian Leader.

' Of such stories as this full of tender religious feeling, life-like characters, and graceful description one cannot have too many.' Literary World.

1 A sweet idyl of rural life in a country farm.' Southern Reporter.

'A healthy tone, and a Doric having the right twang in it.' Fifeshire Journal.

' It is with choice taste, and an appropriateness rarely found in the inscrip- tion of a book, that Miss Swan dedicates her " Carlowrie " to the dear memory of her who made the sunshine of the home that was ; and she may be well con- gratulated on her work as the book of the season.' National Literary Journal.

' True to the life. . . . Interesting from beginning to end, and the reader must be hard to please who cannot find entertainment in what is at once a pleasant novel and a good book.' Northern Whig.

' An episode of Midlothian life, so true in its local descriptions, so graphic in its character drawing, and so pure-spirited withal, that the most fastidious critic will fall in love with it. . . . Parents of taste and intelligence will be glad to put such a book as this into the hands of their children.' Courant.

Gertrude Ellerslie : A Story of Two Years.

By Mrs. Meldrum.

4 Will be read with keen pleasure on account of its being so true to life.' Christian Union.

1 A well-sustained story, abounding in varied interest, and full of clear character sketching ; . . . fascinating book.' Christian Leader.

' The book is one of unflagging interest, variety of scene, and numerous characters.' Cliristian World.

4 A handsome volume externally, and within most gracious. So long as we must have fiction, we hope women like Mrs. Meldrum will employ their pure hands and loving hearts therein. Personal interest is here illustrated by a charming story.' Sword and Trowel.

4 The story is simple, natural, realistic. The tone is thoroughly healthy, and shuns all that is maudlin or silly. The lessons taught are unexception- able, and those who relish a good story well told, would be delighted with the book.' Canada Presbyterian.

4 There are persons who, in their superior kind of way, dismiss a novel as intolerable which breathes a religious spirit, and pointedly inculcates the lessons of evangelical faith and life. It is probably useless to restate the arguments by which a defence may be sustained of such works of fiction, but we would ask those who hold the unfriendly attitude we have indicated, to read with impartial mind the story before us. We shall be greatly surprised if the generous impulses and the high-toned spirit of the tale do not impress its readers, who cannot, at all events, fail to be profoundly interested and stirred by its pictures of varied life. The family portraiture of the various groups is vivid and striking. . . . The character of Gertude is very power- fully drawn. . . . The grouping is very artistic, and the details disclose an amount of careful observation and discriminating judgment which find expression at once simple and forcible in this most attractive story.' Daily Review.

4 Ought to find favour with a large circle of readers. It introduces us to a very large circle of characters, some of which are sketched with remarkable vividness. The tale, as such, is extremely entertaining, so that the interest never flags.' Christian Monthly.

4 The story has strong merits. The authoress is a woman of cultivated intellect, and endowed with strong sympathies for the poor. The plot of the novel is not a very intricate one, it possesses, however, a healthy tone. Some of the characters are exceedingly well drawn.' Richmond and Ripon Chronicle.

4 This is a story which will be welcomed by many, though it is written chiefly for thoughtful girls. The characters are drawn from the homes of our own day. We have met them, known them, and lived among them ; but they are on this account none the less interesting perhaps we like them the better that the scenes through which they move are familiar, and the life they live so like our own. The book, like all Mrs. Meldrum's books, has been written with an aim kept steadily in view— that of showing that one may possess all the world can give, but only divine love and fulness can satisfy a human heart. . . . The book will help and cheer weary folk; it will guide seeking ones, and counsel those who fear to ask for advice. And yet there is nothing dull, nothing wearisome in it. The motivo and execution are both admirable.' The Outlook.

Ursula Vivian, the Sister Mother. By Annie S.

Swan.

' Admirably conceived, and well worked out.' Scotsman.

' The narrative of struggle and victory is well conceived and worked out. —Liverpool Mercury.

' This story is exceedingly well told, and it has a moral equally praise- worthy.'— Sivord and Trowel.

' Eepresenting what life might and ought to be, in spite of adverse cir- cumstances.'— The Christian.

' Has for its heroine a plain English school-girl, who, under the influence of fiery trial, develops into a self-denying, self-reliant, and tender woman. The story also abounds with an earnest and helpful religious spirit, and is one of never-failing interest.' Literary World.

1 A good and faithful character study ; a type of a pure, good_ woman not a woman whose goodness and virtue are oppressively prominent, but one whom we feel to be good, whose actions are those of flesh and blood, not devoid of weaknesses, not without some flaws, and whose nature, human as it is, is nevertheless true, fascinating, and endearing.' Northern Whig.

' Written in a quiet, unobtrusive style, the simplicity of which is charming, and yet the interest is well maintained throughout.' Aberdeen Journal.

' Ursula is a fine character, whom it would do elder girls good to study.' Sunday School Chronicle.

' A beautiful story of what a brave, determined, educated girl can do in fighting the battle of life for her family.' Sheffield Independent.

1 Can it be right or kind to recommend a book when some of the results of its perusal are occasional tears rolling down one's cheek? The fact is, that one forgets this is a story, and the entire Vivian family stand out before the reader as if he had seen and talked to them. The self-indulgent old gentleman ; the patiently enduring wife ; the four brothers, with their quiet, distinct characters ; and Ursula, the spirited, bright, noble, resolute girl, all appear real persons to us. How, when within one short dark week both father and mother were taken away, Ursula set herself to become " a sister- mother," and carried out her high resolve, readers must learn for them- selves, and in so learning we promise them kindled hearts and admiring thoughts.' Scottish Sabbath-School Teacher.

' A very touching story, the pathetic features of which are made all the more effective by the sweetly simple style of the author. . . . The story is religious in sentiment, but there is nothing maudlin about its tone, which has a genuine and wholesome ring in it.' Liverpool Courier.

' One of the best stories for girls we have read for a long time.' Perth- shire Constitutional.

4 In some respects the most perfect story which its accomplished author has yet given to the world.' Kilmarnock Standard.

4 A story of great interest, told with vivacity and power, and has not a dull page from beginning to end.' Aberdeen Free Press.

By Still Waters : A Story for Quiet Hours. New and Cheaper Edition. By Edward Garrett.

' We like this " Story for Quiet Hours " very mucb better than we have liked any of Mr. Garrett's recent tales ; he has shaken himself free from the leaven of Puritanism, and is at his best always pleasant and readable, some- times giving utterance to a really fine and graceful thought, and showing plenty of dry humour.' The Graphic.

' We have read many books by Edward Garrett, but none that has pleased us so well as this. It has more than pleased, it has charmed us. All through it runs a golden thread of spiritual wisdom that makes you linger as you read. The best character, drawn with great care, is Sarah Russell. We have all of us, we hope, met such good, kind, wise women who seem to be sent into the world to put things straight and lift everybody to a higher plane of existence.' The Nonconformist.

' It possesses merits of a very sterling order. The book is a good one in every sense of the word. The author sets a high aim before him, and he achieves it. In Tibbie there is a grim humour closely allied to pathos under- lying her queer epigrammatic sayings.' Morning Post.

' The beauty of the language and the profusion of fine thoughts scattered throughout, constitute its chief charm.' Dundee Advertiser.

' The volume is interspersed with some shrewd sayings.' Daily Neivs.

' Mr. Garrett is a novelist whose books it is always a pleasure to meet. His stories are full of quiet, penetrating observation. Few novelists photograph characters so beautiful and subtle as Sarah Russell's and Tibbie's, or envelope their tale in a like bower of tender, thoughtful love.' Echo.

'Is full of good sense.' Westminster Review.

' A natural, well-written, and deeply interesting story.' Primitive Methodist World.

' The story is well and racily told ; it is lit up with occasional gleams of humour, and, withal, with a better light still. It is a wholesome and a help- ful book.' Leeds Mercury.

' A fine combination of masculine vigour, spiritual insight, and racy humour. ... To quite an extraordinary extent the volume abounds in sayings that are notable, both for the striking originality of their substance and their pointed style of expression.' Christian Leader.

' We have received nothing of late better entitled to attention. ... It is the fruit of robust, fearless thinking, and is brimful of quaint humour.' Greenock Telegraph.

' Very well told, with much power of thought and breadth of sympathy, which is very pleasing to meet.' Spectator.

' The characters are finely drawn. . . . Worth a legion of its contem- poraries.'— Brechin Advertiser.

' A book to be read slowly and read again.' British Messenger.

' A religious book in a good sense, and by no means bad reading from a literary point of view.' Athenmum.

'Perfection of literary form, and vigour of thought. . . . The exposure of smug Pharisaism is executed with trenchant force. Let us hope the book will have the effect of lessening the number of the Pharisees. We expect it will make some of them very angry.' Kilmarnock Standard.

Bits from Blinkbonny ; or, Bell o' the Manse. A Tale. of Scottish Village Life between 1841 and 1851. By John Strathesk. With Six Original Illustrations.

' The daily life in a thoroughly Scotch rural village is described in the most lifelike manner, and one feels a personal certainty of being able to recognise any of the people described if one met them. The homely but pretty illustra- tions place the country scenery before our actual vision.' Athen

'Altogether, "Bell" is an exquisitely careful and finished study. The book abounds in quaint touches of Scottish humour, delightful specimens of our vernacular language, incidents and anecdotes grave and gay.' Scotsman.

'The effect is really delightful, and the blending o'f quiet humour and natural pathos in the volume makes it a positive refreshment to the spirit. . . . The account of Bell's courtship with the shamefaced bachelor, David Tait of Blackhrae, is delicious.' Glasgow Daily Mail.

'If there are not so many characters introduced as in some of Sir Walter Scott's works, the characters have an individuality as pronounced as any of his, and the lights and shades of character are finished off with an equal degree of care and truthfulness.' Huntly Express.

' Bell is the heroine of the book, and a well-drawn character she is, with her quaint ways, her happy expedients, her clever but never shrewish tongue, her simple yet strong fidelity to the family she served, and her wise, droll, and pithy sayings. Dan Corbett, the one-eyed smuggler, poacher, molecatcher, and a dozen other things, ranks next to Bell as a finished portraiture.' Chambers's Journal.

'Piquant and charming in its very simplicity. Enlivened in almost every page by bits of genuine Scottish humour.' Ayr Advertiser.

'The chapter treating of "Wee Nellie" comes closer home in its power of stirring the heart than anything we have seen since the appearance of Dr. John Brown's " Kab and his Friends." The illustrations are true works of art.' Brechin Advertiser.

'A story of homely Scotch life, pleasant and amusing. The dialect is well managed and faithful without being overdone.' The Graphic.

' Scattered throughout the volume are several graphic sketches of village characters, including Gavin Sinclair, the beadle and gravedigger, an old worthy descended from John Brown of Priesthill, the covenanting martyr, Dan Corbett, the village poacher, etc' Edinburgh Courant.

'Pictures penned. . . . "Bell "is simply delightful. We defy anyone to read it without a sense of real enjoyment.' The Literary World.

'We have never seen Scottish village life better described.' Montrose Review.

'A finely told story, which, for interest, excels not a few of our novels. A splendid study.' Hawick Advertiser.

' The author describes the village life of Scotland with the fidelity and grace of Wilkie. We should have enjoyed hearing Burns read them to Tarn o' Shanter over the last gill.' Sheffield Independent.

4 The Laird's Secret.' By Jane H. Jamieson.

' To intelligent readers there is a charm in so genuine a story of modern life and thought.' Athenceum.

' It is long since we have read an equally healthy, pure, and bracing story. The scene is laid in a country parish near Edinburgh. Mr. Scott, the young " Laird," is vigorously drawn, and the handsome and attractive Dr. Black- burn is a careful study of character. There are also many glimpses of humble Scottish life throughout the book, which attest the able hand of the writer. It is emphatically good, alike as regards style and tone.' British Quarterly Review.

' The three girls are fresh and breezy as the heathery hills around them, and many of the situations they figure in are powerfully exciting. Once open the book, and you cannot lay it down till you have followed the fortunes of the three sisters to the close.' Court Journal.

'Exhibits a clear insight into human nature.' Public Opinion.

' There is some love-making in the story, and the doings of all the people in a Scottish village near Edinburgh are minutely chronicled with a simple- hearted jubilation at the superiority of all things Scotch. The plot mainly turns on the machinations of the Popish factor, who is, of course, outwitted in the end.' Daily News.

'Deeply interesting from beginning to end.' Literary World.

' A delightful story well told.' Christian World.

' The characters are all graphically sketched, old Robbie Gourlay, Sir John Maitland. and the handsome and attractive Dr. Blackburn especially so.' Glasgow Herald.

' Readers of healthy fiction will welcome a new edition.' Scotsman.

'We will heartily welcome a new edition of "The Laird's Secret."' English Churchman.

' A first-rate story. The characters are boldly and truthfully sketched; . . . makes a most tempting prize or gift-book.' Perthshire Constitutional.

' The story is not without pathetic touches, just as the happiest life is not free from crosses ; but the general tone is sprightly and exhilarating.' Daily Preview.

' Pervaded by a fresh, pure, and healthy tone, which renders it delightful reading.' Northern Whig.

'Mr. Scott, the young laird, and Dr. Blackburn are sharply cut as silhouettes, and will live in our literature. . . . An excellent work, cleverly conceived, and showing unusual power.' Sheffield Telegraph.

' A very fascinating tale; worth a hundred of the aesthetic and dolorously tragical volumes, in which there is often so much fine writing associated with mean sentiment.' Sheffield Independent.

' Herein are combined a story of real life interest, characters which are well drawn and fascinating, and adequate though not elaborate descriptions of scenes and associations in rural Scotland; and while " The Laird's Secret," with its love-making and love troubles, and its spice of sensationalism, must have charms for readers in general, the quaint Doric speech of some of the personages will endow the book with special attractions in Scottish eyes.'

A Divided House : A Study from Life. By Annie S. Swan.

'The author of " Alder syde " and " Carlowrie " will lose nothing in re- putation by her new story, " A Divided House." It professes to be a study from real life, and bears strong internal evidence that it is so, and that it is a faithful study. It is well written, in a quiet but clear and effective style. Its interest owes nothing to the sensational element, dealing as it does with domestic loves and trials, with the mistakes and follies of human weakness, followed by the chastening of consequent misfortune, and the final triumph of religious faith and patient human valour. The principal characters are admirably portrayed, and there is great delicacy of touch in the delineation of the female characters, the weak and erring, but finally purified and ennobled, wife of Eichard Blake, and his sweet and almost perfect cousin Mary Osborne. The religious element in the story is essential to the plan, and to the development of the characters, and is always justly subordinated to the leading purpose of the book, never degenerating into canting talk, as is too often the case with books of this class. "A Divided House " may be heartily recommended to all lovers of pure whole- some fiction.' Scotsman.

' There is nothing striking in plot or incident, the events related in the narrative being all such as we see happening around us every day ; . . . but gracefully told, and in many passages full of quiet pathos. The moral in- tended to be taught is, of coiu'se, the chastening and purifying influence of adversity on a worldly mind, and the need for mutual patience and forbear- ance in wedded life.' Aberdeen Journal.

' Its quiet, human touches give us an almost personal interest in the person- ages of the story. Indeed, as might be expected from the author's peculiar faculty for limning home life, the domestic passages which abound through- out the book are the most attractive.' Dundee Advertiser.

' The present tale is one of deep interest. The title is derived from the result of the marriage of a young city merchant with the daughter of a country squire with highly fashionable connections. The various points, such as "The Dawn of Love," "Across the Eubicon," and "Taking up the Cross," being worked out with unmistakeable power. There is a good deal of subtle analysis of character in the story, which from the change of theme, as compared with her previous books, reveals a variety of power on the part of the novelist, and holds out the prospect of other good work from the same pen. The whole book is full of quiet, true power.' Liverpool Mercury.

' This story is told with the same directness and simplicity which characterize Miss Swan's previous works, and we are sure that those to whom she has in them already afforded pleasure and instruction, will not be disappointed when they turn to the pages of "A Divided House."'— Literary World.

' Full of pathetic feeling and deep insight into human nature.' Warring- ton Guardian.

'Full of those quiet, quaint, and unexpected touches of genius which have made her other stories so popular, and the tone that runs through the whole of this graceful story of struggle and triumph is of the highest and most true-hearted.' Sheffield Independent.

' The story is full of incident, with which high teaching is interwoven.' British Weekly.

' This is a very ably written story.' Airdrie Advertiser.

' A good moral tone runs through the volume, and, as we have read it from beginning to end, we have no hesitancy in recommending it as suitable for young people.' Home and School, Toronto.

' This is a marvellous book, and proclaims the writer to possess great literary powers, which may yet gain for her a distinguished place among the literary fraternity.' Presbyterian Messenger.

'We have read it with great interest, and have found it worthy of high commendation. " A Door of Hope " is a good title for a good book.' Kelso Mail.

' In the true sense of the word, this is a popular little work' Canada Presbyterian.

' The interest of the story is well sustained throughout.' Dundee Courier.

' Alike as regards quality and quantity, it is splendid value for the money. It has the further charm of not likely to be thrown aside after being once read. Those who go over it once will find fresh thoughts awakened on a second reading.' Huntly Express.

' The tale is well constructed, and told with much feeling.' Perthshire Constitutional.

'Merits high praise for originality of ideas, combined with probability, the lack of which renders many books unreadable. " A Door of Hope " will take its place with the highest class of modern literature.' Dublin Evening Mail.

' The chief characters in the book are evidently life studies, and ex- ceedingly well drawn, the individuality of each being full and striking, as well as perfectly preserved throughout the story. No healthier, pleasanter reading could be put in the hands of young people.' Aberdeen Free Press.

' We have nothing but praise for the work, which we hope may meet with such a reception as will encourage its talented young authoress to favour the public with other books. The high moral and spiritual tone which pervades " A Door of Hope" Avill open the doors of every Christian house- hold to her succeeding books, and will make her not only a successful writer, but a power for good.' Kelso Chronicle.

'Many beautiful passages scattered throughout the volume would well bear quotation did space permit. The chapter entitled " To the West, Three Gates," reveals a reserve of power, and a distinct ray of genius.' Christian Leader.

' Our readers will have no difficulty in identifying the watering-place which is the scene of this story, although it is called Westerley-on-Sea. The book tells as pretty a little love story, or rather double love story, as we have read for a very long time. The author's object is unpretending ; but she has produced an interesting, wholesome, and lifelike story.' Bristol Mercury.

BY THE AUTHOR OF 'BITS FROM BLINKBONINY.'

Extra crown 8vo, elegantly bound, cloth, gilt, price 5s.,

The 'COME' and 'GO' Family Text-Book; con- taining a ' Come ' and ' Go ' Text for every Day in the Year, also spaces for Births, Marriages, and Deaths.

'The author of "Bits from Blinkbonny" has succeeded in devising a genuine novelty a remarkably handsome small quarto, with a dainty coloured border on each page. " The ' Come ' and ' Go ' Family Text-Book " is composed of Scripture passages, each day having a couple, in the first of which the word "Come" has a leading function, while in the second the word " Go" is no less prominent. A real teaching power is secured by the quaint arrangement, which is quite the reverse of mechanical. The compilation has been executed "with brains" and also with spiritual insight.' Glasgow Daily Mail.

' A novel idea in books of the nature of calendars has been carried out in this elegant volume. No one could desire a more suitable framework for the coming and going of his friends.' Scotsman.

1 As neat and elegant a book of Scripture quotations as has yet appeared. A glance through the collection of texts containing the words " Come" and "Go" respectively, given for each day in the year, conveys the idea that these two little words are set in the most pathetic and grandest passages in Holy Writ. Most of the available space is intended for the Kegister of Births, Marriages, and Deaths, and thus the book may become a well-prized register of kindred and friends.' Scottish Leader.

' A beautifid book both outside and in, and does credit to both compiler and publisher. In the way of a text-book it is quite a novelty. Its specialty is that the quotations from Scripture are those in Avhich the words "Come" or " Go" are found, and one from each set is placed alongside the dates of the month, and surrounded by pretty floral wreaths. Each month is also intro- duced by a suitable quotation in which both words occur, and also by passages numbering the month, and appropriately describing it. Under each date there are lines for the entry not only of Births, but also of Marriages and Deaths. No one can examine the book without admiring it, and being amazed at the rich portions of Scripture which have been brought together under the principle employed.' Aberdeen Journal.

'Altogether, the book is one which excites the deepest interest, and conveys

moral in every chapter.' Derry Sentinel.

' Have no hesitation in commending, not only to those who love a good and racily-told tale, but to those who are sometimes puzzled to know what sort of a gift-book to get for a young friend.' Newcastle Weekly Chronicle.

' A good sketch of one of those sterling characters, who, in spite of their surroundings, develope into useful members of society, spreading wholesome influence around them in some of the least reputable quarters of our great cities.' Aberdeen Journal.

' The pages are full of pen portraits, which must have been drawn from nature. Mission-work, as presented to us in this little volume, means very much more than a good story. The Christian heart, yearning over the fallen and lost, will find in it much to enjoy and much to learn. We could not con- ceive of any book more suitable for a prize, or better fitted to place temperance teaching in its proper niche. Among the illustrations are some choice bits of Edinburgh scenery.'

EXTRACTS FROM TESTIMONIALS.

From Mrs. M. D ALTON, Manor Farm, Nocton, July 31st, 1888.

I have given your Butter Colour a fair trial, and can safely say it is the best and most economical preparation for colouring butter that I ever saw, giving it a splendid colour without colouring the butter- milk, and being perfectly tasteless.

From S. PILLEY, Esq., Marston, Grantham, June 20th, 1885. I am pleased to inform you that after trying your Butter Colour for the last year I have found it the best preparation I have ever used, and can strongly recommend it. It imparts to the Butter a beautiful bright uniform colour, and does not affect the butter-milk.

Mrs. ABBEY, Chechen Jon Rectory, ReaJing, March 2nd, 1886. Says " She likes it better than any Colouring she has ever used." From Mr. R. GALLIER, Chemist, Horsham. Gentlemen, A lsdy tells me that out of four different preparations yours was the only one that gave a satisfactory result.

From Mrs. CLARKE, Denmead, Cosham, Hants, May 6th, 1886.

Piease oblige Mrs. Clarke by sending to her at the enclosed address box of Butter Powder, for which order for 2s. 6d. is enclosed. Mrs. C. was much pleased with the Powder and Colouring.
