A good book is the best friend; the same to-day and forever. 



Applegate & Co., in addition to a large and varied assortment of School, Clas^ 

 tical, Theological, and 3Iiscellaneous Books, wliicli they have constantly on hand, 

 publish a series of valuable Standard Works, suitable for the fan^ily circle, as well as 

 public libraries. 



At this time, when the press teems so abundantly with ephemeral literature, 

 the thinking mind esperiences a need of more substantial aliment; of something 

 which shall at the same time furnish not only enjoyment for the present, but for after 

 thought ; something on which the mind will delight to ponder in its communings 

 with itself; something, from the perusal of which one can arise a wiser, if not a bet- 

 ter man ; and among their publications, they flatter themselves such books will be 

 found. It is their aim to select such works, the intrinsic worth of which will cause 

 them to be sought after by enlightened and discriminating minds, and as worthy of 

 gracing the shelves of their libraries. 



Among their publications may be found the following, to which they would res- 

 pectfully invite attention. To these it is their intention to add the best works of the 

 Standard Historical and other authors, and they trust that their selections will be 

 such as to entitle them to a liberal share of the patronage of the book-buying public.
