Literary Notes.

The Lincoln history in The Century, by the private secretaries of Mr. Lincoln, Messrs. Nicolay and Hay, will deal during the coming year with the political and military history of the early period of the war. New light will be thrown upon certain events of that period by the publication of correspondence and other documents never before printed, and unknown to but a small circle. The historians now enter upon a more important and personal part of their narrative. The publication of this history has brought an increase of 25,000 subscribers to The Century.

Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett will contribute a short serial to the coming volume of St. Nicholas for Young Folks, which is said to be a worthy successor of that author’s famous “Little Lord Fauntleroy,” which appeared in St. Nicholas a year ago. Joel Chandler Harris, John Burroughs, Frank R. Stockton, H. H. Boyesen, J. T. Trowbridge, Col. Richard M. Johnstone, and Louisa M. Alcott are among the many distinguished writers who will contribute serial and short stories to this famous magazine for young people.

Edward Eggleston author of “The Hoosier Schoolmaster,” will furnish an illustrated novel to The Century for 1887-8. It is a story of pioneer life in Illinois.

George W. Cable will contribute a novelette to early numbers of The Century, and Frank R. Stockton has written a three-part story, “The Dusantes,” for the same magazine. Mr. Stockton’s new novel, “The Hundredth Man,” has just been issued.

The Siberian Papers, by George Kennan, will be a great feature of The Century for the coming year. Mr. Kennan has just returned from a journey of 15,000 miles through European and Asiatic Russia, undertaken at the request of the editor of The Century. By means of a circular letter from the Russian Minister of the Interior, Mr. Kennan was enabled to visit nearly every important prison and mine in Siberia.

Songs of Worship, the new Sunday-School hymn and tune-book, edited by Waldo S. Pratt, of the Hartford Theological Seminary, is just ready. It contains tunes by the best American as well as English and German composers, and is arranged in the most available manner. Every hymn and tune it is believed will prove of helpful service. Sample copies sent for 35 cents.

Liquid

Cottage Colors.

The best MIXED PAINTS manufactured. Guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction if properly applied. They are heavy bodied, and for work that does not require an extra heavy coat, they can be thinned (with our Old Fashioned Kettle-boiled Linseed Oil) and still cover better than most of the mixed paints sold in the market, many of which have so little stock in them that they will not give a good solid coat.

Some manufacturers of mixed paints direct NOT to rub out the paint, but to FLOW it on; the reason being that if such stuff were rubbed out there would be but little left to cover, would be transparent. Our Cottage Colors have great strength or body, and, like any good paint, should be worked out well under the brush. The covering property of this paint is so excellent as to allow this to be done.

Put up for shipment as follows: In 3-gal. and 5-gal. bailed buckets, also barrels; in cans of ⅛, ¼, ½, 1-gal. and 2-gal. each.

THE NEW HYMN BOOK, by Rev. Drs. Hitchcock, Eddy and Mudge.

Rev. J. S. DICKSON, Pastor Woodland Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, and a rare musician and singer, says: “I have just gone over the ‘Carmina Sanctorum,’ by Rev. Drs. Hitchcock, Eddy and Mudge, and find that it is by all odds the best hymnal I have ever seen.”

Rev. THOS. B. McLEOD, Clinton Avenue Church, Brooklyn. N.Y.—“It satisfies me beyond anything of the kind I have ever seen. Of course, the names of the editors warranted high reputation. But considering the progress made in the direction and the number of fine Hymn Books recently published, I was not prepared to see a work so eclipsing as this.”

EDWARD H. MERRILL, Pres’t Ripon College.—“The ‘Carmina Sanctorum’ is a superb book in all ways. I advise Churches about to change books to examine this one.”

Rev. PHILIP SCHAFF, D.D.—“It is a model collection.”

Rev. P. T. FARWELL, Stockbridge, Mass.—“The book is a thorough delight.”

E. C. EVANS, St. Paul, Minn.—“It has already contributed not a little to the enriching of the devotional part of our services.”

CONGREGATIONALIST.—“One of the most practically serviceable hymnals which we have seen.”

INDEPENDENT, New York.—“Any congregation that likes to have its hymnal represent careful thought and full culture, would do well to examine this collection of Carmina Sanctorum.”

EVANGELIST, New York.—“The hymns are only the choicest, and they have been carefully edited by that accomplished authority in hymnody, Dr. Hitchcock. As the American Churches have grown in taste and capacity for musical expression in worship, this book seems to meet their wants completely, giving them plenty of tunes they can and will sing, and at the same time educating their taste and improving their public worship.”

200 Tunes

roller organ

ONLY $7 WITH MUSIC

PERFECTION IN MECHANICAL MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS ATTAINED AT LAST.

PLAYS ANY TUNE arranged for it, from a lively waltz to the slowest church music, with perfect tunes and concert time. Gives better satisfaction than a Hundred Dollar Parlor Organ and will give ten times more pleasure. Plays Two Hundred Different Tunes in a superb manner and charms every listener. Beyond a doubt the grandest and most marvellous Musical instrument ever presented to the great music loving public of America. This is a new instrument never before offered and should not be confounded with the cheap Automatic instruments. It is as much superior to them as the Silver Tongued Cornet is to the ear piercing Fish Horn. No perforated strips of paper to bother the player and require frequent replacing. THE NEW AMERICAN ROLLER ORGAN is operated upon a somewhat similar plan as the FINEST FIVE HUNDRED DOLLAR FRENCH MUSIC BOXES, from a roller with metal pins; the pins operate upon valved keys, made of finely tempered steel, the roller being connected with the gearing which also works the bellows. The working parts of this magnificent instrument are made of solid metal, are easily taken apart or examined. No better workmanship is found in the most expensive musical machinery. The instrument is thoroughly made and yet so simple a child can operate it without fear of injuring it in any way. The rollers are made of light wood and the bearings and pins which are made of metal, WILL NEVER WEAR OUT. This instrument is the Perfection of Musical ingenuity and PLAYS MARCHES, WALTZES, POLKAS, JIGS, Reels, Sacred music, selections from Operas, Popular Songs, etc., and is peculiarly arranged for playing DANCE MUSIC in perfect time. If you have purchased any other style of an Automatic Musical Instrument and have found it a disappointment and a nuisance YOU SHOULD SEND FOR ONE of the above described instruments. Nothing grander, more reasonable in price or combining so many desirable features can be found in French or Swiss Music Boxes. For a short time these instruments will be offered for Seven Dollars in BEAUTIFULLY CARVED CASES with Music. Send for one and take our word for it, it will fill you with astonishment and delight. Send money by Post Office order, Registered letter or by Express. Address all Orders to World M’f’g Co., 122 Nassau Street, New York
