Many housekeepers will gladly welcome their old friend in a new dress, and renew their copies worn by constant use; or, as the author herself expresses it, “I hope my fellow-workers will find their old kitchen companion in fresh dress, yet more serviceable than before, and that their daughters may, at the close of a second decade, demand new stereotype plates for still another and like this a progressive edition.”
With the new edition of “Common Sense,” the Publishers will issue, in uniform style:

———————— CRITICAL NOTICES.
“A volume quite the most comprehensive of its kind ever published.”—The Art Interchange.
“It is, indeed, the most comprehensive and practical guide to the amateur decorative arts that has yet appeared.”—Art Amateur.
“The work supplies a current need of the day, which nothing else has met.”—Boston Traveller.
“Unquestionably one of the very best of its class that we have.”—N. Y. Evening Post.
“Mrs. Harrison has grouped together in her book about as much useful information as it is possible to get together in the same number of pages.”—Baltimore Gazette.
“Mrs. Harrison’s book is one of the very few books on household art which can be unreservedly commended.”—The World.
“Mrs. Harrison’s suggestions are within the reach of the most limited means.”—The Critic.
“Full of suggestions, descriptions, and illustrations, of the kind that fascinate all those whose chief joy is in making home beautiful and happy.”—N. Y. Observer.
“Everything important that relates to the furnishing and ornamentation of houses will be found in this work, which is rich in important information, and noticeable for its good taste, sound judgment, and practical wisdom.”—Boston Saturday Eve. Gazette.

ROXY.
BY EDWARD EGGLESTON, Author of “The Hoosier Schoolmaster,” “Circuit Rider,” Etc. ———————— One volume, 12mo, cloth, with Twelve full-page Illustrations from original designs by Mr. Walter Shirlaw. Price, . . . $1.50. ———————— CRITICAL NOTICES.
“‘Roxy’ may be accepted as the latest example of a purely American novel, and to say the least, one of the very best.”—New York Tribune.
“In this novel Mr. Eggleston’s powers appear at their best and amplest, and he has accomplished the by no means easy task of excelling himself.”—Boston Journal.
“There can be no doubt whatever that ‘Roxy’ is the best product of Dr. Eggleston’s activity in the field of fiction.”—New York Eve. Post.
“As a pure, but vigorous American romance, Mr. Eggleston’s new work is better even than his ‘Hoosier Schoolmaster’ and ‘Circuit Rider.’”—Phila. Eve. Bulletin.
“It strengthens the author’s position as a writer who has brought new life and a decided manliness into our native fiction.”—Boston Courier.
“‘Roxy,’ a story whose purport and power are much deeper than the author has before reached.”—Springfield Republican.
“The story is powerfully told, and if Mr. Eggleston had written nothing else, ‘Roxy’ would place him in a foremost position among American authors.”—N. Y. Commercial Advertiser.
“Its pictures of Western life are vivid, and throughout betray the hand of a master in literature and fiction.”—Episcopal Register.
“As a faithful picture of American life, it ranks far above any novel published in the United States during the past twenty years.”—Brooklyn Times.
“We advise our readers to buy and read ‘Roxy.’ They will find the plot deeply interesting, and will gather from it not only transient pleasure, but permanent good.”—Louisville Post.
“The story of ‘Roxy’ is Dr. Eggleston’s best work. It attains a higher merit than his other works in epic purpose as well as a dramatic form.”—The Methodist.
“Buy the book and read it, as it is well worth the time spent to do it.”—Washington Chronicle.

“To those who love a pure diction, a healthful tone, and thought that leads up to the higher and better aims, that gives brighter color to some of the hard, dull phases of life, that awakens the mind to renewed activity, and makes one mentally better, the prose and poetical works of Dr. Holland will prove an ever new, ever welcome source from which to draw.”—New Haven Palladium.
WITH THE AUTHOR’S REVISION. Each one vol., 16mo, (sold separately,) Price, $1.25. ————————
Messrs. Charles Scribner’s Sons have now completed the issue of a New Edition of Dr. Holland’s Writings, printed from new plates, in a very attractive style, in artistic binding, and at a greatly reduced price.
It is believed that the aggregate sale of Dr. Holland’s Books, amounting as it does to half a million volumes, exceeds the circulation of the writings of any other American author. There is not a single book of his which has not had an unquestionable success, and most of them have been in such constant and increasing demand that the plates were actually worn out.

“Dr. Holland will always find a congenial audience in the homes of culture and refinement. He does not affect the play of the darker and fiercer passions, but delights in the sweet images that cluster around the domestic hearth. He cherishes a strong fellow-feeling with the pure and tranquil life in the modest social circles of the American people, and has thus won his way to the companionship of many friendly hearts.”—N. Y. Tribune.
