Collateral Information in the Arts, Manufactures, Profes sions, and Trades, including Medicine, Pharmacy, and Domestic Economy.

COOLEY'S CYCLOPEDIA OF RECEIPTS has for many years enjoyed an extended reputation for its accuracy and comprehensiveness. The sixth edition, now just completed, is larger than the last by some six hundred pages. Much greater space than hitherto is devoted to Hygiene (including sanitation, the composition and adulteration of foods), as well as to the Arts, Pharmacy, Manufacturing Chemistry, and other subjects of importance to those for whom the work is intended. The articles on what is commonly termed "Household Medicine" have been amplified and numerically increased.

The design of this work is briefly but not completely expressed in its title-page. Independently of a reliable and comprehensive collection of formulæ and processes in nearly all the industrial and useful arts, it contains a description of the leading properties and applications of the substances referred to, together with ample directions, hints, data, and allied information, calculated to facilitate the development of the prac tical value of the book in the shop, the laboratory, the factory, and the household. Notices of the substances embraced in the Materia Medica, in addition to the whole of their preparations, and numerous other animal and vegetable substances employed in medicine, as well as most of those used for food, clothing, and fuel, with their economic applications, have been included in the work. The synonyms and references are other additions which will prove invaluable to the reader. Lastly, there have been appended to all the principal articles referred to brief but clear directions for determining their purity and commercial value, and for detecting their presence and proportions in compounds.

ELEGANT DRAWING-ROOM STYLES.

Those who are acquainted only with the lower-priced Cabinet or Parlor Organs cannot realize the capacity, variety and rare excellence now attained in the finer styles of these instruments manufactured by the MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO. It was from the use of one of these that the celebrated Dr. FRANZ LISZT was led to characterize the Organs of Mason & Hamlin as not only "matchless" but "unrivalled" among their kind; and OTTO SCHARWENKA, of Berlin, to pronounce them the most excellent instruments within his knowledge; adding, "They are capable of the finest tone coloring, and no instrument so enraptures the player."

The LISZT ORGAN is our special pride; Fifteen Stops; prices, $390, $420, $500 other Superb Drawing-Room Styles, $300 to $900.
