Hunt ' s Playing Cards .
THE same excellent features are retained in the manufacture of these Cards , ivhich for the last century have won the highest encomiums—and the services of the leading decorative
artists having been secured , these Cards are now unsurpassed , either for elegance and variety of design , or perfectuess in manufacture . The samples before us of the new enamelled-faced Club Card of this season ' s patterns are
really very pretty , and several are so richly got up that they become very suitable for an album . The premises of the original firm of Hunt and Sons were destroyed by fire in 1874 , but the valuable designs and
electros were fortunately saA ed , and ultimately purchased by " Hunt ' s Playing Card . Manufacturing Company , Limited , " under Avhich title the business is HOAV successfully carried on , and of which Bro . AV . F . Taunton , of the Gladsmuir Lodge , No . 1385 , is . the manager .

The Cosmopolitan Masonic Calendar , Diary , and Pocket Book for 1877 .
This book is , in our opinion , well worthy alike of the care ivhich has been lavished on its production , and the favourable reception ivhich has been always accorded to it . The Cosmo has outlived the abuse of
the " cantankerous " and the opposition of the malevolent , and commends itself year by year to a large increasingcircle of readers . And most naturally so , for it is in truth a Masonic record " sui generis , " and of much actual and needed importance to us all as brother Masons . When ive open its pages ive find that it contains information never
before collected , and not elsewhere procurable . To hai r e in one work a list of High Grade chapters of all kinds , as well as of Templar Priories ; to find the names of Scotch , Irish , French , German , Italian , Spanish , and
many other lodges in many other constitutions , together ivith English , is a work of no little cost and labour , as it is of no little use and merit . Let us dismiss from our mind any idea that the Cosmo is run in opposition to the
Freemasons' Calendar and Pocket Book ; or , in fact , any similar work at all . It simply appeals on its own merits , the needs and demands of the hour , alike to the cordial support of our English Brotherhood and the generous patronage of our Cosmopolitan Craft ,
