HOOK NOTICES. Madelo.v Lemoixe; a novel, Cy Sirs. Leith Adams. J, B. Lippincott Company, Philadel phia; price 25c. This is one of the Lippincott series of se lect novels, and a rather interesting one it is. It fills up an idle hour admirably. Esther ; a Book for Girls. By Rosa Nouchette Carey: illustrated. J. B, Lippincott Compa ny, Philadelphia, publishers; cloth $1 25. This is a very pretty story and can hardly fail to be popular with girls, for whom it is intended. It is not a story full of exciting and blood-curdling incidents, but it is inter esting, having a good plot, a lively conver sational style and a purpose which gradually reveals itself as the story progresses. Federal Taxes and State Expenses. By Wil liam H. Jones, G. P. Putnam & Sons, New York, publishers. The author in this volume presents some interesting thoughts on the decay of separate State power of excise under the Federal constitution, and the compensation therein provided for it; and the relation of the general civil administration under separate State authority, to the general welfare of the United States under the Federal autonomy. He says he was “in fluenced in the beginning of his work by the high rate of State taxes on property valua tions for the State and local expenses of the civil administration,” and that “his efforts were long directed to the vain attempt to secure a remedy for the difficulty by har monizing State and Federal co-operation over the subjects of State taxation.” Ishmael; or, In the Depthß. By Mrs. Emma D. E. N. Southworth, with portrait of Sirs. South worth. T. B. Peterson & Bros., Philadelphia, publishers. Bound in Morocco cloth, black and gold. Price $1 50. This is Mrs. Southworth’s last.and by many considered her best work. The life of “Ishmael Worth,” as here portrayed, is a guiding star to youth, to show them that there is no depth of human misery from which they may not, by virtue, energy and perseverence, rise to earthly honors, as well as eternal glory. " ‘ln the depths’ he was born indeed—in the very depths of poverty, misery and humiliation. But through his aspirations and endeavors, he raised him self to the summit of fame. He was good as well as great. His goodness won the love of all who knew him intimately. His greats ness gained the homage of the world. His identity will be recognized by those who were familiar with his early personal his tory; but for obvious reasons, says the author, his real name must be veiled under a fictitious one in the volume.” Joe’s Luck, by Horatio Alger, Jr. No. 1 of the “Boys’ Home Library.’’ Paper, 12mo. Price, 25c. Published by A. L. Burt, 162 William street, New York. To write successful stories for the young is a difficult matter, but Horatio Alger, Jr., has succeeded in doing it as well perhaps as any living author Two generations of boys have been delighted with his books His popularity is due to the thoroughly healthy and sound moral tone of his stories without lessening their exciting and adventurous in terest. Volume W of Wide Awake, bound in a pretty cover, is out. It is published by D. Lothrop & Company, Boston. Wide Awake is varied and bright enough to engage the common reader, and good enough to lead the capable reader to higher pleasures and benefits. Four volumes of Wide Awake are now in the book store, U and V in one style of binding and W and X in another, 81 75 a volume. MAGAZINES. Home Knowledge for September has some excellent articles. It is exceedingly well edited, and its articles are always valuable and are written by able and popular writ era. Home Knowledge Association, New York. All who are interested in any way in lit erary metiers will find much to entertain them in the September number of the Writer (Boston). Six numbers have now been published of this bright little maga zine for literary workers, which is serving a useful purpose, and which grows more in teresting and valuable with every issue. D. Lothrop & Cos., Boston. The September issue of the Hew Prince ton Review contains a number of excep tionally strong and valuable articles on a great variety of themes. Mr. Richard tenry Stoddard describes “Lord Bvron” with a vigorous and trained hand, laying stress on the poet’s inner life and the growth of his genius. Mr. H. W. Conn sets forth clearlv the different scientific theories re specting "The Origin of Life,” and estimates critically their valne and their defects. Prof. Alexander Johnston does not fall be low the high standard which he has set for himself in his previous historical writing: his admirable article on “The First Century of the Constitution.” in which he points out the indebtedness of the framers of the con stitution to the work already done by the States, is a model of clearness and compre hensiveness A ringing plea is that by Senator Colquitt, of Georgia, under the title of “Some Plain Words on Prohibi bition,” in which the arguments for prohi tion are pressed with great force. There are other interesting and valuable articles. A. C. Armstrong & Son, New York. The Church Review for September has nine articles, any one of which is well worth the price of the magazine. They are all the productions of scholars and are carefully edited. J. G. Geddes & Cos., New York. The Church Magazine for September is well up to the standard which this maga zine has established. While its articles are rather intended to meet the taste of people interested in religious subjects, it is well adapted to meet the wants of the general reader. L. R. Hamersly & Cos., 1510 Chest nut street, Philadelphia. The Atlanta Medical Journal tor Sep tember will be found to be valuable by the medical profession, and interesting by the general reader.

A TARANTULA TRAINER. Mr. Schandley Hopes to Create a Boom for the Big Spiders. From the San Franciico Alta. “That's Tom Schandley, the tarantula trainer,” said Charley Rhodes. As he spoke he jiointed to a short, stout man, dressed in a light suit, who stood at the other end of the counter. “He makes a specially of train ing tarantulas and spiders. He was once al most crazy on snakes, but now he appears to be wrapped up in the education of spiders. Talk to him. He can probably tell you au interesting story.” The reporter acted upon the sug gestion. An introduction to Mr. Schandley followed. "Yes’’’said Mr. Schandley. “I must ad mit that I’m what seme people call me—a crank on spiders. I like the creatures, and never tire of studying habits. Solomon of old advised the lazy man to study the ways and manners of the out. I don’t care to pose as the rival of Solomon as a dispenser of wisdom, but I will maintain that the spider can tench a bettor idea of industry than any unt that ever lived. I've watched the creatures. An ant runs about ail day and puts hi all its time hunting for the holo where it lives. In contrast to the actions of the ant, the spider spins a web and at least makes a showing as to what it can do. It' you will come to my room I’ll show you some of my pets.” The reporter willingly accepted the in vitation, and before on hour had expired he did not regret the time which he devoted to his new acquaintance. “Here’s my favorite spider,” said Mr. Schandley. as he placed a cigar box with holes bored in the top on the table. He threw back the lid and disposed the occupant of the box, which was an ugly hairy tarantula. As the light was thrown upon the tarantula it began to move its joints and cavort around the box in a manner that would have caused a timid woman to go into hysterics. The reporter drew back as the savage look ing creature displayed a tendency to creep out of the box. “Oh, don’t be afraid of Tim. I call him Tim O’Brien, you know,” said Mr. Schand ley; “it’s onlv a little nickname. He can’t hurt you. I've drawn the poison from his nippers. Come, Tim,” and to the horror of the reporter Mr. Schandley reached his hand out and allowed the tarantula to crawl upon it. A tarantula is not a very handsome or pleasing specimen of an animal under any circumstances, but it causes a shudder to come over the ordinary man to see one drag ging its hairy form' over the hand of a huinau being. Mr. Schandley allowed the creature to crawl around his Ungers and it worked its way up his coat sleeve. It stopped when near Mr. Sehand ley’s elbow and cocked its eyes up at the re porter in what the latter considered a wick ed manner. “Go back to your box, Tim,” commanded Tim’s master in liars!) tones, and to the re porter's surprise the animal quickly turned, crawled over the owner’s hand and dropped into the cigar box. “I have him well trained, you see,” laughed, the owner of the tarantulas as he closed the lid on Mr. O’Brien, “but I’ll show you another stiecinieu. Here is Jim Blaine,” Mr. Schandley opened another box and exposed to view a reddish-brown tarantula. It was a live customer, and as soon as the lid of the box was thrown back it fairly leaped out upon the table. The re porter sprang back. “Don’t be alarmed,” said the trainer, and he seized “Jim Blaine” around the body. “Jim is a Texas boy, and the dandy of his kind. Just feel him.” The reporter requested to be excused from feeling “Jim.” The only failing that Jim basis that he drinks whisky and is a confirmed toper.” “Drinks whiskyf” “Yes, sirree. I’ll prove it.” Mr. Schand ley laid Jim back in the box and closed the lid. He took a bottle of whisky from a stand and saturated a small sponge with the alcoholic stimulant. “I’ll put this in with Jim and let him wrestle with it,” said Mr. Schandley. And he dropped the sponge in the box. “A queer business I’m in?” said the taran tulatminer, in reply to a question thrown out by the reporter. “Yes, it is. Money in it? Yes. I was a snake hunter in Bucks county, Pa., about fifteen years ago. I made considerable money out of it, but the rattlers got kind of scarce, and I followed Horace Greeley's advice and came West. When I was in Texas I got an idea that tarantulas could be trained, and I started in. I was successful, and soon had about fifty of the ugliest devils of tarantulas, that would do almost anything. Of course I drew their poison, so tnsre was no dnnger to be incurred in handling them. 1 took ’em to New York and sold ’em. Who bought them? Well, the greater part of them were purchased by saloon keepers, who wanted to attract custom bv exhibiting them on their bars. Some of them I sold to ladies who had a bent of mind something like Bernhardt. They made pets of them. I tell you that there are at least a dozen Mur ray Hill belles who keep their pet tarantulas with their pet lapdogs now. I got very good prices from them for a tarantula that was well trained and would not betray any viciousness. Borne of the brutes can never be trained. They will bite. No; I don’t exactly make a living out of selling tarantulas, but I am always willing to ac commodate any one who wants one of the animals. I’ve got about eighteen taran tulas now. I hope to inaugurate a craze among the ladies for the creatures. If I can get up a. boom you’ll see wotnou prome nading on Market street on Saturdays with their pet tarantulas on their arms. A small blue ribbon around their waist is what keeps them in place. The novelty of the thing is taking. By the way, let u > look at Jim Blaine.” Mr. Schandley opened the Blaine box. The sponge and Mr. Blaine were en rapport. Mr. Blaine was helpless. The sponge was dry. He haul sucked every drop of liquor from it. Mr. Schandley turned Mr. Blaine out upon the table, but he was like a chunk of wood. Only a spas modic quivering of his jointed legs showed that he was alive. “Ah, he’s royally drunk,” said Mr. Schandley, laughing. “He’d get this way every day if I’il lot him. But it’s only about once a week that I give lam liquor. I al ways think that it must have been an ani mal like Jii'.i that gave rise to the name tarantula juice. He is the only spider that I ever hail, out of many, that I could get to touch liquor. How long does it take to t rain a tarantula? Oh, not over two weeks. You'd b surprised to know what a compre hension the ugly brutes have. They can be trained easier than a dog.” Mr. Schandley then snowed the reporter eight other tarantulas that were under going courses of training. They all seem ed to recognize certain sounds which he made. “Jim Blaine won’t be sober until morn ing,” said Mr. Schandley, as the reporter edged toward the door to escape three or four tarantulas that were running around loose. “If you know any one who wants a pet tarantula just refer him to me. I’ll be in town for several weeks.” KANSAS DRINKS. No Beer for Sale Anywhere, but You May Buy Barley Mead and Water. From the St. Louie Globe- Pemocrat. Like most tourists who cross the plains of Kansas, Mr. Reardon had an encounter with the modern archangel known as prohibition. Of course everybody knows there isn’t a drop of beer or liquor sold in the Cyclone State outside of the drug stores; at any rate, everyliody knows that's the law. People who never think of wetting their lijis with lager or tempting their appetites with roil eye, get very thirsty in going through Kansas. The colored man in charge of the buffet—if they Implicit to be riding in a buffet car —shuts and locks the drawer in which be keeps his gill and half-pint flasks of fire-water, anil puts away his bottled beer, and stoically returns a determined ‘‘No. sah," to every plea for either the poison or the hili* promoter. The sable gi-utle man proving lrojiervious to bribe or flattery the tourist next tries the stations along the road. “Anywhere here where a fellow can get a drink f' ho asks. “Yes, there's a spring np yander about three miles," a native responded, with a grin spreading through the rim of liquid to bacco that surrounded his teeth. “Oh, I don’t mean water. I mean beer—or —o>' whisky; I don’t care which.” “Don’t know what’t is. Guess wo hain’t got it.” “You don’t know what beer is? Merciful Gambrinus!” “No, sir; never saw it. This is Kansas.” After several adventures of this kind some tourists, more brilliant and daring than the rest, will penetrate the jungles of the pro hibitionists and come forth with a bottle, or maybe half a dozen bottles of beer, lie discovers the open sesame, and from that hour forward there is a lager festival on board the train. Often they buy out the saloonist’s entire stock, and when the de mand is heavv the price fluctuates quicker and further than floes the price of wheat in the most exciting days on ’Change. Mr. Reardon’s experience is similar to nearly everybody else’s. It was short and sweet. Here it is: “We got off at a place called Brookville,” he said, “and went into a saloon at the depot. It was a good looking country saloon, but there were not any black bottles in sight— only bottles of ginger ale and bott'es of bar ley mead. I asked the barkeeper for a glass of beer, as I saw others getting it. “ ‘We have no beer, sir,’ was the quiek answer that came from behind the bar, ‘but here’s some good barley mead.’ . “ ‘Take it, it’s beer,’ somebody suggested, and I asked. ‘How much a bottle? 1 ‘Twenty five cents,’ the barkeeper replied. I took two bottles, and do you know that was as fine Milwaukee beer as I ever tasted any where? The folks in the train soon got on to it, and thev cleaned out the Brookville saloonist of all his ‘barley mead. ’ He begin by asking 25c. a bottle, but in a few secotn s it went up to 30c. and then to 30c., and the last of it sold at 40c. a bottle. I think the mau sold eight or ten dozen bottles. A" souvenirs of the affair, I removed the two labels from one of my bottles. The large label announces that the contents are a ’nutritious barlev mead for nursing mothers, invalids, etc.’ The smaller label, which 1 took from the other side of the bottle tells what the stuff is good for and gives the direc tions for taking it.” Mr. Reardon gave me the two labels, and I forward them to you, as I think they will lirovoko a wide smile from the people who inve heard or read about the possibility of getting beer or whisky in tne State of Kansas. The smaller label is: This Admirable Restorative and Health Giving Tonic Promptly Relieves Nervousness, Conquers Dyspepsia, and is an Excellent Reeup ' erant of Weak Physical Energy. Drank at Meal Time It hastens the lYo cess of Digestion, and It is not only an ef ficient Strengthener and Remedial Agent, but a most Palatable and Re freshing Beverage. DIRECTIONS. Keep it very Cool, Take a Wine Glass full at Meal Time and before re tiring at Night. Mr. S. P. Teasdel, one of the largest Mor mon merchants here, related a like experi enee which he had recontly in Kansas. He wanted a glass of beer and asked somebody at one of the stations where the lager might be had. He received the usual reply—there wasn’t any beer in the whole country. After awhile, as he still stood on the platform, a native rolled up to him and asked him if he wanted a drink real bad. He said he did, and the native pointed the wny to an under ground saloon. “Ask for ginger ale,” was his parting injunction. Mr. Teasdel went down into a cellar and groped his way to the bar. He asked the citizen behind the counter for ginger ale, and that gentleman coolly drew him a glass of keg beer. Mr. Teasdel was thirsty and drauk the glass ful. “Let me have another glass of that beer,” he skid to the barkeeper, as serenely as he could. The barkeeper glanced at him in open in dignation. “We have no beer, sir!” he replied. “Then give me a glass of water," said Mr. Teasdel. And forthwith the liar keeper with an apologetic smile, took hold of his glass and drew him another beer. DESTINY. Sttmuel W. Duffleld in Wide AuxiJcc.

ABOUT seven yearn ago I had a humor break out upon my face; it started in a small blotch and looked like the sting of a tee. then It spread and looked like a ringworm, and liecame very painful. I at once went to one of the best doctors in the city and he could do me uo good. No less than twelve of the liest doctors have bad a trial at my face and uli of them failed. I will not give you a list of their names, but will say that they were from Boston, New York and slaine, also from England. France and Canada. 1 have Ijeen a hotel cook and steward for years. In the summer I cook at watering i laces; that Is why I have an opportunity of being among good doctors. They could not cure my face, and 1 had given up all hupes of ever being any better. Last June 1 went to Moosehead Lake, slaine. to cook for the season. My face was so bad 1 did not like to be seen. At the lake I met a gentleman from England. He. told me to use your CrTicniA Remedies and they would cure me at once. I did so. The result was in three weeks the sores on my face were healed up. I used it all the season. My face is all well and no stairs to be seen. I have recommended it to a number, and in every case it has cured them. It would take a great deal of money to put me buck where I was one year ago. providing I did not know what your Cvticuhx would do. I shall recommend It as lung as I live, and shall ever remain, H. STEVENS East. Jackson, Me. A Most Wonderful Skin Cure. Have just used your Cuticura Remedies on one of my girls, and found it to Is; just what it is recommended to be.
