CONQUERING THE WILDERNESS

In American history there are no more interesting figures than the He* roes and Heroines of (he Border.— Bold, dashing, adventurous and patriotic; loyal to friends, to country aud to the interests of society, their work was singularly effective in the advancement of American civilize* tion. Wiiti seeming recklessness, their efforts were in the interest of law and order, and the people owe them a debt of gratitude they do not forget. Their page in history is as fascinating as it is honorable, and there is a peculiar pie .sure in read ing the narrative of their wonderful exploits, The times which produced tbos' 1 heroes and hetoines mark u period in American history of absoi biug interest alike to old and vouug. It is proper that it should be so. Thest hardy pioneers coupled virtue with courage, numaoity and loye <»f eouutrf with the stern duties ot frontier life and battle, and the example of their lives not only intereat but strengthens our faith and admiration in human courage and unselfish purpose. In American pioneer history there are three distinct eras marked as distinctly by thrae-geographical divisions; from the Allegheny Moun tains to the Mississippi, marking the fiLSt; from the Mississippi to the tains the second; Califors nia and the Pacific Slope the 3rd. The settlement of these vast regions developed great leaders, whose achievements have made them justly and widely famous. They have a warm place in*the hearts of the people, and a prominent one in their admiration. It is appropriate that their achievements should be recorded, and we note with pleasure the forthcoming of a ne wbook, now ready, from *he press of N. D, Thompson & Co.. Publishers, New York and St. Louis, Mo„ called: Conquering the Wilderness, or New Pictorial History of the Life and Times of The Pioneer Heroes and Heroines of America, It is written by Col. Frank Triplett, an accomplished writer, whose literary qualifications and great experience on :he frontiers are said to em«« inently fit him for so noble a task. A special feature of the book is its apt and profuse illustration, embracing 220 superb engravings, illustrating incidents and persons—the latter embracing nearly 100 lifelike portraits, of pioneer leaders, never be fore given—men and women—which make it a sort of picture gallery, as well as a book of thrilling narratives, that will lend to the book a charm and interest not to be resisted. It is sold by subscription, through canvassing agents, and |presents an opportunity to agents to make money especially invitiD?. We adverttse it in another column Our Undertaking Department is complete. We carry the best stock to be found in the county, Metalic, Draped, Walnut and White Caskets, all sizes andprices.
