It is not every book nominally for children, having a showy binding, that a parent can put into the hands of a child with safety. It has been our custom for years to give much greater care in selecting our line of books for children than to any other department of our stock. Only the books which are made by the best known and mo3t responsible and reliable of English and American publishers, and are written by authois of undoubted merit and purity do we ever buy, nor would we have any others inonr store at any price. When a book is presented to a young child it should be one that will interest, instruct and elevate the reader.

The board of, trustees of the Deaf and Dumb and Blind Institution have issued an interesting circular letter set ting forth the present condition of that establishment, and urging that there be provided tor the deaf mutes an institu tion entirely separate from the blind. Among other things the circular says: In the year 1845 North Carolina es tablished, and has since supported, the Institution lor the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind. During this Deriod several hundred of each of these classes have received instruction here, and reallv been brought from darkness into light, and to-day there are many enjoying the benefit and happiness of an education who would otherwise have grown ud in the most pitiable ignorance," had it not been for the genercus hearted people of our beloved State. But while so manv have availed themselves sf such privi leges, it is a sad fact that there are so many unhappy ones who have not had these advantages, for there are far more of them, especially among the deaf, who have never received such training, and many of these uneducated ones have not the slightest conception of their Creator. The facilities in our institution are not suffiiient to accommodate one-half of these children. In 1880 the deaf and dumb and the blind population in North Carolina was more than three thousand, with over five hundred deaf children alone under twenty-one years of age. Yet we have less than thirty per cent, of them iu school, and could not admit them if all applied. The North Carolina institution is one of only four or five in the United States where two classes are kept together. There is no reason why they should be kept in the same buildings, for there is no bond of svmoathv between them. They cannot communicate their thoughts nor even their simplest wants to each other. What we need is a new institution for the deaf, entirely separate from that of the blind. There are more of either of these classes in North Carolina than we could accommodate in our present bud- aings. xms means that we must deny a great manv of them admittance. If you had a deaf son would you be willing for our State to say, "You cannot come in ?" Our last General Assembly aoDro- priated one hnndred acres of state land to the Institution for the Deaf ane Dumb, bat we have not a dollar to erect ham, Salisbury, Coucord and Murphy, a building. We need a plant with suffi cient room to accommodate one hundred and fifty white mates to begin with. On this land we might teach praotical agri culture and gardening, raising and car ing for stock. We should have industrial shops where we could teach carpentry and cabinet makincr. printincr. shoe- making, broom and mattress-makinfr.

Last May these circles met by" delegation in Greensboro and formed "a state organization, and elected a state secretary.
