Every family wants a stylish parlor table 
lamp. 1 his will suit our readers exactly. It 
gives a pure, soft and immense white light of 
8.) candle power; the most brilliant, the largest 
and the purest light from kerosene oil that has 
evei been produced. It never needs trimming 
never breaks chimneys, never smells; nogum- 
“P* no leaks, no sputtering, no climbing 
or the name, no smoky chimneys, no annoy¬ 
ance of any kind, and it cannot explode. The 
brass lamp is beautifully polished, with shade 
h , olaer ’ chimney and plain porcelain dome 
shade, bells complete for $4.80; we give it 
f or five subscribers. The glass lamp is com- 
• a , complete little library in itself. It 
I s ot bandy size and shape, and it contains 
just tbo words needed in every-day conversa- 
tion or reading. Every child in the country 
ought to have one of these little dictionaries 
as a part of its school-book outfit. A teacher 
can do no kinder act for his pupils than to 
encourage them in the habit of consulting a 
dictionary whenever they have the least doubt 
as to the proper spelling or real meaning of a 
word met with in conversation or reading 
Ihis habit may be considered as being the 
most important part of the foundation of a

Uiat will be felt all through life. As will be 
noticed in another column, we offer Webster’s

Louisa M Alcott’s Works. 
Given lor One Subscriber and LO Cents tor 
Postage. 
Who has not read “ Little Men ” and “Little 
Women?” The one who could give his name 
in answer to this question is simply an object 
lor pity. What a charm there is about these 
bcoks. They hold the mind and bring us back 
to boyhood and girlhood as few other books 
ever can. Wise men are constantly deviling 
plans for bringing our boys and girls up to 
higher standards of manhood and womanhood 
We would suggest that every boy and girl be 
taught to read and own a set of Miss Alcott’s 
books. There is so much iu them to encourage 
a love for honor, home-feeling and truth, that 
the world would be better for their whole¬ 
sale distribution. We are glad to announce 
that we have made an arrangement with the 
publishers, Messrs. Roberts Bros., of Boston 
Mass., which will enable us to offer auy one of 
Miss Aleott s books for one subscriber and ten 
cents for postage.

Our readers will remember this story. It 
was published in the Rural a year ago and 
met with quite general approval. Many of 
our readers have written us for back numbers 
containing the portions of the story they failed 
to obtain. Unfortunately we were unable 
to supply these copies. When this fact was 
known, there was quite a general demand for 
the story in book form. To meet this demand 
the story has been published by Messrs. Lee 
and Shepard, of Boston, Mass. It makes an
