NOTICES BY THE PRESS. 
The work is one that can well he read by every man about 
*o m i M i -*». hnT a place of residence, as the author has much 
to say — and says it in a direct and simple mnnncr -<an ail 
points connected with a matter so important, and which so 
closely concerns the comfort and the health of all persons. 
— Traveler (Boston). 
The part of the volume preceding the designs contains 
useful suggestions on selection of localities, modes of build- 
ing, properties of timber, painting, etc.— Country Gentleman 
(Albany, N.T.) 
It is a volume of nearly three hundred pages, amply illus- 
trated, containing hints and suggestions as to the general 
principles of house-building, style, cost, location, symmetry, 
and modes of building. It is especially designed to en- 
courngu a taste for pleasant country houses.— The Freeman 
(Montpelier, Vt.) 
This is a useful and valuable work, filled with suggestions 
as to the general principles of house-building, illustrated 
with about one hundred and fifty engravings.— Watchman 
and Reflector (Boston). 
There is much in the book to recommend it to the atten- 
tion of all; particularly the remarks on building material, 
appropriateness, the effects of different combinations of 
paints to produce harmonious colors, etc.— State Republican 
(Lansing, Mich.) 
A splendid volume, illustrated with about 150 engravings. 
The directions and statements it gives are eminently plain 
and practical, and seem sufficient for the establishment of 
something more than houses merely, and that is homes.— 
Rutland Herald (Vt.) 
An admirable work. It is just the hook for any one con- 
templating the erection of a house or barn.— Farmers' 
Cabinet (Amherst, N. H.) 
There are single chapters in it which are worth more than 
the price of the work ($1.30), not only to those who are build- 
ins: anew or building greater, but to such as contemplate 
Improvements, and. unfortunately— owinsr to bad jobs at the 
beginniiiK, or (Vcnv's effacing flnscers— there are few homes 
about which improvements are not needed.— The World 
(New York). 
A valuable work, gotten up in the best style. It must prove 
both interesting and useful to all who wish a home in which 
beauty, taste, convenience, and economy are combined.— 
United Presbyterian (Pittsburgh, Pa.) 
It contains some practical and common-sense advice as to 
the selection of sites, etc., which should he carefully consid- 
ered by every one who is seeking where to locate his home, 
while the information given as to the principles and details 
of building is also of the utmost value for putting one in a 
position to know if he is having his work well done and 
getting his money's worth.— Evening Mail (New York).
