The Boston Journal, in a recent issue, sayi: to-yooriolf what a magasine for children ought to be--how blight and winning in contents, how pure and stimulating in teaoh ing, bow resplendent with pictures, then turn ovor the pages of St. Nicholas, and you will flod your ideal The Chicago later- Ocean says "St.

tficho- totla an institution of which Young aud Old America are aa proud as England is of Punch. A house-without St. Nicholas," continues the writer, "does not deserve to own any boys and girli; no dog should vrag'ila little tail while pressing ita nose through tho area railings emphatically, we' would observe that should the sun condescend to shine upon that house, bis solar majesty would make a big mistake," Tbo first volume of St. was a surprise even to tbe public that had heartily welcomed it, number by number. Newepaperi critics expressed enthusiastic approval; children and parents were alike delighted, and congratulatory letters from distinguished men and women pcured in on tbe publishers and editor.

Charles Dudley Warner wrote: "I do not see how it can be made any better, and if children tike it, it ia-timo to chunge the kind or children in thii country Whuuor, our great poet, "It is littlo to say of this magazine that it is the best ohild't periodical in tbe world and words of hearty commendation came across tbe ooean from such earnest workers and popular favorites of the young an Geo. Maodonald, Christina Rossetti, and c'anon Kingsley. Beautifully bound, superbly illustrated, and filled with good things, from the best writers (including three long aerial stories), the first volume of St. complete in itself, is a finer Christmas gift for girls and boys to-day than any single book in the ST.

St. Nicholas for 1874 and 1875, 4 Vols. For the convenience of because many children find the two large volumes for '74 and '75 rather bulky to handle, we have these twenty-four bound in four elegant volumes, and inclosed in a neat box under the general title of The St. Nicholas Library. These Tour volumes are sold for $8, being only two dollars a volume--a beautiful and i valuable Christmas present for an entire fam- ily of young folks.

Tbe New York Tribune says; "In tbe ava-, lanche of immoral literature that threatens the children, eorae-strong, vitally wholesome, and really attractive magasine is required for them, and St, has reached a higher platform and commands for tbia aervioo wider resources in art and letters, than any of its predecessors or contemporaries." The Sunday School says "A cleaner, purer, more trustworthy periodical for children oannot be outned. The wagaxine does claim to be religious, Hut it IB on the side of all thut io true and good, from beginning to end." i The religions press nil over tho country heartily aouimend JVtoAoftu, and virtually echoes tho opinion of tho New York Christian Union, i thut it is "A deligbtml magatine-Jbr all children between five and eigbty-seven." St. Nicholas for lre Promises evon greater attractions than tbe previous volumes. A strong feature of tbo now volume is au American Sorml Story, "The Boy Emigrants," by Nonh Bruoks, Giving the adventures of a party of boys on their iong journey across the plains, with a vivid portraiture of their Life in California dnring the days of tho Oold-Fover. Mr.

Brook a brings to tbia work, in addition to his well-known literary gifts, a thorough familiarity with tho features ol that wild country and tho people then flocking toward it. What be has to nay ol them ia pervaded with a subtle aud intense eavor of reality that enables the reader to follow the characters in their adventures with a positive sense of companionship. The oontag.nit of tbe "gold-fever;" the grcut difficulties and perils which beleaguered thuirjourney acvoss tho plains and mountains, and finally the yot, in a or Lai a rude way, poetic life in tbe mines of California, ara all described with wonderful truthfulness nnd skill. Add tbits tho elevated tone pervading tlie work, and tbe irresistible attraction which such narrative possesses for boys, and the value of this stirring, healthy serial becomes evident. There is to bo another and shorter serial, beginning in January and running three numbers: of Iceland," by Bayard Taylor.

A delightfully vivid story of an Icelandic boy's career, full of incidents, which could happen in no other couot-y, and graphically touching upon tbe customs, life, and general features of that strange land.

No one remedy Is called Tor by the necessities of the Araericnn people than a sure and safe cure for Fever Such we arc now enabled to offer, with a perfect certainty that It will eradicate the disease, and with aasur- aoco, founded oa proof, that no harm can aviso from Its uae'In Any quantity.

Tlmt which protects from or thlft disorder must be of immensa service in the communities where it prevails. Prevention is batter than cxire; for the patient escapes the risk which he must nm Inriolcnt attacks of this baleful distemper. This "CURE" expels the miasmatic poison of Fever and Ajrue from tlio system, and prevent a the development of tlio disease, if taken on the first approach of its premonitory symptoms. A l.Tcat unporloiity of id is remedy over any ever discovered foi the speedy ana tain cure of ts.that it contains no Quinine or mineral; consequently It produces no quinism or other Injurious effect! whatever upon tho constitution. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if they had never hod tho disease.

It la an invaluable protection to Immigrants anil person travelling or temporarily residing in the mnlnrious districts.

If taken occasionally or daily while exposed to the Infection, tiuit will be excreted' from the system, and cannot accumulate, in bufllcieiit quantity to ripen into disease. Hence it la even more vahiablo for protection tlinn cure; anil few will miffcr from Intcrmlttcnts If they avail themselves of the protection this remedy ITonls.
