A LITERARY COMPANION FOR THE SEASON.

PUBLISHED BY

[The remainder of this space is occupied by the retailer's imprint. For terms see below.]

SEASON OF 1879.

To RETAIL DEALERS:

The Summer Catalogue, issued now for two years, has been found so useful and profitable by enterprising dealers, that it has become a regular feature of the trade. The third issue, in a special pamphlet adapted for imprint circulation all through the summer, will be published in connection with THE PUBLISHERS' WEEKLY of June 14th.

The imprint editions will contain, in addition to a catalogue of guide-books and light literature for summer reading, an entirely new selection of reading matter both of a practical and entertaining character, chiefly intended for the use and amusement of tourists, pleasure-seekers, and visitors of summer resorts.

Booksellers should remember that, while summer is usually a dull time, the sales of light literature, etc., can be pushed to make a successful business even in this season. The classes who travel are of course those who have money to spend, even in dull times, and the summer is the time when very many bookbuyers do the greater part of their reading. Booksellers at or near summer resorts should therefore especially avail themselves of this publication, while city dealers should remember that it will be also useful to tempt stay-at-homes to make investments, or to follow up customers out of reach.

Orders for imprint editions at subscription rates should be sent in at once.

NOW READY.

The only compact Guide-Book covering the whole ground of ordinary "vacation"

travel in Europe.

EDITION FOR 1879.

JUST ONE DAY

IN THE LIFE OF MY HEROINE,

A SATCHEL GUIDE who may be found in THOUSANDS OF HOMES

For the Vacation Tourist in Europe. With Maps. 16mo, roan, flexible. $2.

This compact and serviceable guide-book is beyond question the best handy guide yet published for the use of American tourists in Europe. It includes the British Isles, Belgium and Holland, Germany and the Rhine, Switzerland, France, Austria, and Italy. It gives the traveller just the information he needs, in the best form.

"Houghton, Osgood & Co.'s 'Satchel Guide' is so general a favorite among Americans who travel, that in announcing the edition for 1879 we have no need to repeat the commendations given to it in former years. The real wants of the traveller are fully met, and the work has the advantage of a thorough and intelligent annual revision, which frees it from the faults that mar too many guide-books."-New York Evening Post.

"We know of no European guide-book which so admirably combines brevity, accuracy, completeness, convenience of shape, and tasteful mechanical execution."- Independent (New York).

For Sale by all Booksellers. Sent post-paid on receipt of the price by the Publishers.

IT is with pleasure that we announce to our friends and the public that we have purchased the right, title, and Printing Material of the longestablished firm of WELCH, BIGELOW & Co., known as the " University Press;" and that we have associated with us Mr. CHARLES E. WENTWORTH, formerly of Soule, Thomas & Wentworth, of St. Louis. The valuable services of Mr. M. T. BIGELOW, as a proof-reader, have been added to those of our own corps of readers, whose well-known accuracy is already appreciated by both authors and publishers. We have also secured for our Cylinder and Woodcut Pressroom the services of the several pressmen, whose reputation for skilled workmanship has been fully confirmed by the many finelyillustrated books which have come from their hands.

With increased facilities for executing Fine Woodcut Printing, added to our own resources for Bookwork, of all forms and varieties, we shall not only strive to preserve the well-earned reputation of either house, but aim at still greater excellence.

Thanking our friends for past favors, it will be our constant purpose to deserve an increase of their confidence and patronage in the future.

We are, most respectfully,

JOHN WILSON & SON.
