  A Tale of the North Country.

  By IRVING BACHELLER, author of "A Master of Silence." 12mo, cloth,gilt top, rough edges. $1.50.

  A refreshing story of the "plain people" of country and town. The"North Country" is the farm-land of St. Lawrence County in Northern NewYork. Uncle Eb,--hero, "hired-man" and border philanthropist--is alover of animals, of nature and of all creation. The scene shifts toNew York in war time, and the story of the rout at Bull Run isunsurpassed in realism. Altogether it is one of the brightest and mostpopular of recent books, for it appeals to that love of minglingsentiment and humor that all men and women like.
