Sunshine at Home.

By Editor

THE life mission of some people seems to be to "scatter sunshine" wherever they go. A happy disposition, which makes the best of everything, looks on the bright side, and ever bears in mind that "the darkest cloud has a silver lining," is the means of brightening the lives of all who are brought under its influence.
While this is true of individuals, it is equally so of other objects which have an influence on the mind, and most emphatically true of some kinds of books. The work entitled "Sunshine at Home" has been prepared for the purpose indicated by its title. Its mission is to brighten the lives of those who peruse its pages, by its cheering words, its entertaining sketches, and its beautiful pictures.
The work comprises 112 large quarto pages, and 170 engravings, and is printed on fine calendered paper, in the best style of the typographic art. It is handsomely and substantially bound in fine cloth, embossed in jet and gold, and is a handsome ornament to any center-table, and an adornment to any library.

ITS FIELD OF USEFULNESS.

The character of the work is well calculated to give it a wide circulation. Bright and sparkling, without being frivolous or trifling; moral in its tone, without being sombre or dogmatical; religious, without sectarianism,—it finds a ready sale in all classes of society, and exerts its beneficent influence wherever it goes. Agents are meeting with great success. One agent in Healdsburg, Cal., orders one hundred, another fourteen, another orders ten, three others fifty copies each, and so on. It readily commends itself to all who see it, and once brought to the attention of a family, its possession is earnestly desired. RETAIL PRICE, $1.50.
If there is no agent in your vicinity, write to the general agents, and they will see that you are supplied.
