/T\HE present issue of " Carment's Directory " will be

•*- found to contain all the advantages of the publication for 1888. We have kept almost entirely on the old lines, feeling assured that the success of previous years' issues has been due to the complete form in which the information is annually presented.

In point of circulation, accuracy, and completeness, our

"Directory" maintains its reputation—having a much larger sale, and possessing more information, than any other publication of the kind in the district.

Some months ago we were honoured with a communica- tion from the Parliamentary representative for Mid-Lothian, who accepted a copy of our 1888 "Directory." Mr Gladstone's acknowledgment will be found on next page.

We again tender our best thanks to those friends and corres- pondents who have been so ready to assist us, and to the Editors of the various newspapers and journals, who have so favourably reviewed our work in the past.

THOMAS KEMP, Editor "Carment's Directory."

Dalkeith, December IS88. —

Garment's l&kectovy.

In acknowledging a copy of the last issue of " Carment's

Directory/' Mr Gladstone wrote the Editor as follows :

" Hawarden, Sept. 10th, 1888.

" Dear Sir,

" I thank you for the work you have kindly sent me. It adds another to those recollections of Dalkeith, which I have so much reason to retain with pleasure.

" Your faithful and obedient,

"W. E. GLADSTONE." Garment's 1889 2)irectot£

At Kinross small boats may be hired for visiting the ruins of Lochleven Castle. The castle is situated on an island about half-a-mile from the shore, towards the Kinross side. It is a place of great antiquity, and is said to have been built by Congal, son of Dongart, King of the Picts. It was granted by Robert III. to Douglas, laird of Loch- leven, and in 1335 it sustained a memorable siege by Sir John Stirling, a partisan of Edward Baliol, who had recourse to the expedient of damming up the river that flows out of the lake, expecting thereby to raise the water of the loch so high that the inmates of the castle would be swamped. The plan succeeded so far, when fortunately, in an unguarded moment, the water was let loose upon the besieging party themselves, who suffered severely from the overflow. The story is given, with all the embellishments of romance in Sir Walter Scott's novel of The Abbot. Queen Mary's escape was accomplished May 2, 1568, and the following picturesque account of it is given by Sir Walter Scott in his novel above referred to. "At the dead hour of midnight, when all was sfent in the castle, the page put the key into the lock of the wicket which opened into the garden, and which was at the bottom of a staircase which descended from the Queen's apartment. .... The door of the garden, which communicated with the shore of the islet, yielded to one of the keys of which Roland had possessed himself, although not until he had tried several —a moment of anxious terror and expectation. . . . The sentinel, whose slumbering had withstood the whispering, was alarmed by the dash of the oars' and he called aloud ' Treason !' rang the bell of the castle, and discharged his harquebus at the boat. The ladies crowded on each other like startled wildfowl at the flash and report of the piece, while the ' men urg^d the rowers to the utmost speed. . . . I locked gate and wicket on them," said Roland, ' and no boat will stir from the island this night, if doors of good oak and bolts of iron can keep men within stone walls. And now I resign my office of porter of Lochleven, and give the keys to the kelpie's keeping.' As the heavy keys plunged into the lake, the Abbot exclaimed, ' Now, bJess thee, my son ! for thy ready prudence puts shame on us all.' " The boat is said by general tradition to have gone ashore on the lands of Coldon, at the south side of the lake, whence the Queen was conducted by Lord Seton to Niddry Castle, near Linlithgow. The keys of the castle, which were thrown into the lake, were found by a young man belonging to Kinross, who presented them to the Earl of Morton. —

KITCHEN GARDENER'S CALENDAR.

January.—This is the month for preparing early vegetables, whether by the hot-bed or in the natural ground. If you have any lettuce plants in frames, let them, whenever the weather is fine, enjoy the open air, and even in wet weather do not exclude the air altogether ; but should the frost be rigorous, let them be closely covered up. If the weather be open, asparagus, radishes, carrots, spinage, parsley, &c, for early use may be put in preparation this month. The soil must be prepared for various crops, as peas such and beans ; some kinds of the former may be sown in a favourable state of the weather.

Holidays are marked thus *.

Sow the different kinds of small salading, such as cresses, mustard, radish, and lettuce, once a week, if the weather be open. Cauliflower plants, in frames, should have the free air every mild day, by taking the glasses entirely

] July.—Prepare ground for the autumn and winter crops. Plant your prin- cipal crops of savoys and winter cabbages. Transplant brocoli, and sow seed for a late spring crop. Plant late crops of kidney beans. Sow onions to stand the winter, but this not before the end of the month. About the middle of the month you may sow some carrots, which will come into use at Michael-

till mas, and continue good the spring ; the same remarks apply to turnips.

Thin, transplant, and sow lettuces, winter spinage, and several kinds of radishes, particularly the turnip rooted. As celery is a water plant, and requires to grow quick, it should be kept alive by wet. Lift all winter

September. —This is the season for providing mushroom spawn, and dung for the mushroom beds. The spawn is found chiefly in dry old rotten

dunghills ; it is a white fibrous substance spreading in the dung. The for spawn must be kept from wet. Plant lettuces in frames winter use ; transplant cauliflowers. The young cabbage plants which were sown the

first or second week of August for an early crop next summer and autumn should be planted into nursery beds. Continue to plant celery in trenches, and earth up the plants as they advance. Continue to gather seeds. Cardoons, which will now have made considerable progress, must be earthed up for blanching, their leaves being previously tied up carefully and regularly. Cover asparagus with manure. Plant cuttings of gooseberries, currants, raspberries, and strawberries. Remove hardy evergreens, shrubs, &c. OCTOBER begins on Tuesday-31 Days.

November.—Get everything out of the land this month which is not intended to stand during the winter. In the middle, or towards the end of this month, is a proper season to plant early beans, to succeed such as may have been planted in October. The same direction may be applied to peas. Brocoli may be laid down, and their heads pointed to the north, especially the high growing kinds. Where the asparagus beds were not cleaned and earthed during the last month, it must now be done. Artichokes should now receive their winter dressing. The beginning of this month you should take up carrots and other roots to be preserved in sand,

December. —Remove decayed leaves from the cauliflower plants, and let the plants have free air during the day. If the weather be dry and open, radishes and carrots, for an early crop, may be sown. Keep up the succession of peas ; the kind called hotspur is ono of the best for this season. Plant beans now, if you have not planted tbem earlier. Attend carefully to have the mushroom beds defended from frost and wet. Take advantage of the first day, if not frosty, to earth iip such of the celery as may be in a fit state for it; and see that the plants are pretty dry before you begin earthing. Carefully examine fruit which has been laid up in the house. ON THE DEVON.

THE scenery of the "Vale of Devon" is justly celebrated. The river Devon in its lower course flows principally through the County of Clackmannan, in which are situated the towns of Alloa and Tillicoultry. At the distance of other three miles is the town of Dollar, containing an academy, founded by the late John Macnab, a native of the parish. Castle Campbell, an old fortress of the Argyll family, looks down on the village from the top of a high and almo-t insulated rock. A considerable number of years ago Castle Campbell was sold to Crawford Tait, Esq. of Harviestoun, father of the late Archhis-hop of Canterbury, and it is now the property of James Orr, Esq. Four miles east of Dollar is the romantic spot called the Rumbling Bridge, where there is a good and comfortable hotel of the same name. This scene takes its name from a small narrow bridge seen underneath the new bridge across the Devon, as if some one had dropped it into the cleft, and it had got fised between the rocks. This is the original Rumbling Bridsre, across which it must have been no pleasant operation to ride or drive. Of the other Palls of the Devon to be witnessed here, the next and least effec live is " The Devil's Mill," which may bo reached by a footpath among trees close to the edt;e of the river. About a mile below is " The Cauldron Linn," a very striking scene, and one of the finest waterfalls in Scotland. At two bounds the river clears its way into the vale below. "The clear winding Devon" hns beeD mud e the subject of a beautiful lyric by Burns. Miss Charlotte Hamilton (afterwards Ms. Adair), the lady on whom the song was composed, was at that time residing at Harviestoun, near Dollar. PROBABLE WEATHER FOR 1889.

IMMEDIATELY opposite the Breadalbane Arms Hotel, Aberfeldy, ia the entrance to the Falls of Moness, celebrated in Burns' song of "The Birks of Aberfeldy." The the highest being Falls are three in number, and are approached by a zigzig path ; two miles and the lowest one mile up the glen. The higbest fall is a perpendicular torrent of about 50 feet in height, and the whole scene is one of great beauty, aprly described in

Burns' lines : — " The braes ascend like lofty wa's, The foamiug stream, deep roaring, fa's, O'ei'hung wi' fragrant spre iding shaws, The birks of Aberfeldy.

" The hoary cliffs are crowned wi' flowers, While o'er the linn the burnie pours, And rising weets, wi' misty showers, The birks of Aberfeldy."

The birks have vo.rv much died out, but they have been superseded by the mountain ash, which, with its 'cluster of red berries (called in Scotland rowans), is no unworthy substitute. A frail wooden bridge is thrown across the dell, which is so narrow that the trees in some places unite their branches from the opposite sides. Within a few miles' walk of the falls is Moness House. DRYBURGH ABBEY.

interesting abbev was foQnde 1 about the year 1150, during the reign of David I., THIS Constable of Scotland. Edward II by Hugh de Moveville, Lord of Lauderdale and , in retreat from his unsuccessful invasion of Scotland (1322), encamped in the grounds of Dryburgh, and burnt the monastery to the ground. Robert I. contributed liberally towards its repair, but it has been doubted whether it was ever fully restored to its original condition. Like Melrose, it consists of a church, in the usual form of a cross, and an adjoining monastery. Both are built of the same stone (taken from a quarry on the estate), possessing the remarkable property of hardening with age. The architecture arch. The is of the earliest periods, displaying both the Norman and Early English nave of the church is 190 feet long by 75 bioad. St. Mary's Aisle, at once the most beautiful and interesting part of the ruin, contains the burial-place of Sir Walter Scott, who was interred here 26th September, 1832, in the tomb of his maternal ancestors, the Haliburtons of Newmains, at one time proprietors of the abbey. On either side are the tombs of his wife and eldest son. The ruins of the monastic buildings are of considerable extent. The refectory, or great dining-room of the monks, occupies the whole front of the abbey facing the south, and is 100 feet long, by 30 feet broad, and 60 feet high. vicinity the is Beneath it are the wine and almonry cellar. In the immediate of abbey the mansion-house of Dryburgh, the seat of the Erskine family, surrounded by stately trees. The late Lord Buchan had a fancy for decorating hi-* grounds with objects of the temple of the muses with the bust of nation U interest ; and it was he who erected the poet Thomson and the rude colossal statue of Wallace now seen here.

RULE TO FIND THE WEIGHT OF CATTLE.

Take the girth behind the shoulder, and the length from the fore part of the shoulder blade along the back to the bone at the tail, which is in a vertical line with the buttock, both in feet. Multiply the square of the girth by 5 of times its length, and divide by 21 : the quotient is the weight, nearly, the four quarters, in imperial stones of 14 lbs. avoirdupois.

The "Pfaff" Perfect Singer System Sewing Machines.

THE CABINET WORK.—The Cabinet Work of the "Pfaff" Machines is unsurpassed for elegance, high finish, and strength by any Machine in the market. Not a particle of wood is used in its construction, but has been cut and seasoned at least THREE years. The borders are of solid American Walnut throughout, and finished with the utmost perfection. THE STAND.—The japanning is very bright and hard; the ornamentation in pure gold is entirely hand-painted, and the appearance of the Stand, in consequence, rich and tasteful.

The "Pfaff " Machines, although of comparatively recent introduction into this country, have for 25 years or more been considered the finest and most reliable Machines on the Continent and in many of the British Colonies. Long before the leading Sewing Machine Companies of to-day were heard of, the " Pfaff" Machines received " Awards of Merit " and Medals in recognition of their superiority at the International Exhibitions held in London, and the Conti- nental and Colonial cities. They are now acknowledged by the Leading Sewing Machine Merchants and Experts in the kingdom the only really perfect Singer System Sewing Machines in the trade.

"77?e story-books of Messrs. Blackie are delightful, brilliantly bound, and printed on paper- that is a pleasure to handle."— Daily Telegraph.

"More suitable books, especially for boys, it would be impossible to imagine. Whether of adventure, school life, or domestic in- terest, every story is alike marked with those wholesome and robust characteristics which form so valuable a feature in juvenile literature. —Christmas Bookseller. BLACKIE & SON'S BOOKS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.

the 10/6 Rip Van Winkle : A Legend of Hudson. By Washington Irving. With Forty-eight Illustrations by Gordon Brownk Small 4to, cloth, gilt, 10s. 6cZ.

"It is a pleasure to have Washington Irving's delightful story in a dress so appropriate and so handsome as that here furnished it. Mr Gordon Browne has entered thoroughly into the spirit of his author, and the pictures of Rip, his spouse, and his associates, human or superhuman, are admirable in all respects." —Notes and Queries. "A most charming edition of this favourite old story. Mr. Browne has done some good work lately, but none so thoughtful and finished as these drawings." — Graphic.

: the Infinitely and the Infinitely Little. jiff The Universe Or Great A Sketch of Contrasts in Creation, and Marvels revealed and explained by Natural Science. By F. A. Pouchet, m.d.

" We can honestly commend Professor Pouchet's book, which is admirably, as it is copiously illustrated."—The Times. " This book is as interesting as the most exciting romance, and a great deal more likely to be remembered to good purpose."—Standard.

Robinson Crusoe. By Daniel Defoe. Illustrated by above ft J ' 100 Pictures by Gordon Browne. Crcwn 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

"One of the best issues, if not absolutely the best, of Defoe's work which has ever appeared."— The Standard. " The best edition I have come across for years. If you know a boy who has not a 'Robinson Crusoe,' just glance at any one of these hundred illustrations, and you will go no further afield in search of a present for him."—Truth.

Edition. Illustrated fil Gulliver's Travels. A New by more than 100 Pictures by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 5s.

" By help of the admirable illustrations, and a little judicious skipping, it has enchanted a family party of ages varying from six to sixty. Which of the other Christmas books could stand this test?"—Journal of Education. " Mr. Gordon Browne is, to my thinking, incomparably the most artistic, spirited, and brilliant of our illustrators of books for boys, and one of the most humorous also, as his illustrations of 'Gulliver' amply testify. "—Truth.

j/g When I was a Boy in China. By Yan Phou Lee, a native of China, now resident in the United States. Illustrated. Crown 8vo, cloth extra, Is. 6d. Mr. Yan Phou Lee, a native of China, who graduated at Yale College and ultimately married an American lady and settled at New Haven, Con- necticut, here gives his experiences as a Chinese Boy. As a concise yet detailed and interesting record of his younger days, it forms not only an entertaining contribution to the list of boys' books, but a valuable addition to works dealing with the inner life of nations. — —

BY G. A. HENTY.

: Mr. Henty is one of the best of story-tellers for young people."—Spec tator.

Tale of Venice. By G. A. HENTr. The Lion Of St. Mark: A Qj With 10 full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s. A story of Venice at a period when her strength and splendour were put to the severest tests. The hero, the son of an English trader, displays a fine manliness which carries him safely through an atmosphere of intrigue, crime, and bloodshed. In his gondola on the canals and lagunes, and in the ships which he rises to command, he is successful in extricating his friends and himself from imminent dangers, and contributes largely to the victories of the Venetians at Porto d'Anzo and Chioggia.

Captain Bayley'S HeiP: A Tale of the Gold Fields of Cali- fornia. By G. A. Henty. With 12 full-page Illustrations by H. M. Paget. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s. A frank manly lad and his cousin are rivals in the heirship of a con- siderable property. The former falls into a trap laid by the latter, and while under a false accusation of theft foolishly leaves England for America. He works his passage before the mast, becomes one of the hands on a river trading-flat, joins a small band of hunters, crosses a tract of country infested with Indians to the Californian gold diggings, and is successful both as digger and trader. He acquires a small fortune, and at length returns home, rich in valuable experiences.

Bonnie Prince Charlie : A Tale of Fontenoy and Culloden. By G. A. Henty. With 12 full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

" Ronald, the hero, is very like the hero of Quentin Durward. The lad's journey across France with his faithful attendant Malcolm, and his hairbreadth escapes from the machinations of his father's enemies, make up as good a narrative of the kind as we have ever read. For freshness of treatment and variety of incident, Mr. Henty has here surpassed himself. "Spectator. " A historical romance of the best quality. Mr. Henty has written many more sensational stories, but never a more artistic one." Academy.

For the Temple: A Tale of the Fall of Jerusalem. By G. A. Henty. With 10 full-page Illustrations by Solomon J.

Solomon : and a coloured Map. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine

edges, 6s.

" Mr. Henty is ever one of the foremost writers of historical tales, and his graphic prose pictures of the hopeless Jewish resistance to Roman sway adds another leaf to his record of the famous wars of the world. The book is one of Mr. Henty's cleverest efforts." Graphic. "The story is told with all the force of descriptive power which has made the author's war stories so famous, and many an 'old boy' as well as the younger ones will delight in this narrative of that awful page of history."— Church Times. — — —

BLACK1E & SON'S BOOKS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.

BY G. A. HENTY. "Surely Mr. Henty should understand boys' tastes better than any man living." —The 'Times.

" As we might expect from Mr. Henty the tale is a clever and instructive piece of history, and as boys may be trusted to i- ead it conscientiously, they can hardly fail to be profited as well as pleased. "—The Times. "A praiseworthy attempt to interest British youth in the great deeds of the Scotch Brigade in the wars of Gustavus Adolphus. Mackay, Hepburn, and Munro live again in Mr. Henty's pages, as those deserve to live whose disciplined bands formed really the germ of the modern British army."—Athenaeum. "A stirring story of stirring times. This book should hold a place among the classics of youthful fiction."— United Service Gazette.

The Young" Carthaginian: a story of the Times of Hannibal. By G. A. Henty. With 12 full-page Illustrations by C. J. Staniland, R.I. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

" The effect of an interesting story, well constructed and vividly told, is en- hanced by the picturesque quality of the scenic background. From first to last nothing stays the interest of the narrative. It bears us along as on a stream, whose current varies in direction, but never loses its force."—Saturday Be iew. "Ought to be popular with boys who are not too ill instructed or too dandi- fied to be affected by a graphic picture of the days and deeds of Hannibal."— Athenaeum.

With Wolfe in Canada: Or, The Winning of a Continent. By G. A. Henty. With 12 full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s. "A model of what a boys' story-book should be. Mr. Henty has a great power of infusing into the dead facts of history new life, and as no pains are spared by him to ensure accuracy in historic details, his books supply useful aids to study as well as amusement."—School Guardian. " It is not only a lesson in history as instructively as it is graphically told, but also a deeply interesting and often thrilling tale of adventure and peril by flood and field. " Illustrated London News. " This is a narrative which will bear retelling, and to which Mr. Henty, whose

careful study of details is worthy of all praise, does full justice. . . . His

adventures are told with much spirit ; the escape when the birch canoes have been damaged by an enemy is especially well described." Spectator.

With Clive in India: Or, The Beginnings of an Empire. By G. A. Henty. With 12 full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne, in black and tint. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine

edges, 6s. " In this book Mr. Henty has contrived to exceed himself in stirring adventures and thrilling situations. The pictures add greatly to the interest of the book." Saturday Review.

Those who know something about India will be the most ready to thank Mr. Henty for giving them this instructive volume to place in the hands of their children."—A cademy. — — —— — — — —

True tO the Old Flag": A Tale of the American War of o\ Independence. By G. A. Henty. With 12 full-page Illustrations

by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s. "Does justice to the pluck and determination of the British soldiers. The son of an American loyalist, who remains true to our hag, falls among the hostile red- skins in that very Huron country which has been endeared t. us by the exploits of Ha'wkeye and Chingachgook." The Times. " Mr. Henty's extensive personal experience of adventures and moving incidents by flood and field, combined with a gift of picturesque narrative, make his books always welcome visitors in the home circle." Daily News.

"Mr. Henty has broken new ground as an historical novelist. His tale of the days of Wallace and Bruce is full of stirring action, and will commend itself to boys. "—A thenceum. "Written in the author's best style. Full of the most remarkable achieve- ments, it is a tale of great interest, which a boy, once he has begun it, will not willingly put on one side." Schoolmaster. " Scarcely anywhere have we seen in prose a more lucid and spirit-stirring description of Bannockburn than the one with which the author fittingly closes his volume."—Dumfries Standard.

Through the Fray: A Story of the Luddite Eiots. By G. A. Henty. With 12 full-page Illustrations by H. M. Paget,

in black and tint. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s. " Mr. Henty inspires a love and admiration for straightforwardness, truth, and courage. This is one of the best of the many good books Mr. Henty has produced, and deserves to be classed with his Facing Death."—Standard. " The interest of the story never flags. Were we to propose a competition for the best list of novel writers for boys we have little doubt that Mr. Henty's name would stand first. " Journal of Education. " This story is told in Mr. Henty's own easy and often graphic style. There is no 'padding' in the book, and its teaching is, that we have enemies within as well as without, and therefore the power of self-control is a quality that should be striven after by every 'true' boy."— Educational Times.

Under Drake's Flag: A Tale of the Spanish Main. By G. A. Henty. Illustrated by 12 full-page Pictures by Gordon Browne, in black and tint. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine

Observer. "I can thoroughly recommend 'Under Drake's Flag.'" Truth. "Just such a book, indeed, as the youth of this maritime country are likely to prize highly. "—Daily Telegraph. " A book of adventure, where the hero meets with experience enough one would think to turn his hair gray." Harper's Monthly Magazine. — — —

BLACKIE & SON'S BOOKS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.

BY GEORGE MANVILLE FENN.

"Mr. Fenn is in the front rank of writers of stories for boys. "—Liverpool Mercury.

0/ Quicksilver: Or a Boy with no Skid to his Wheel. By George Manville Fenn. With 10 full-page Illustrations by

Frank Dadd. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

Dr. Grayson has a theory that any boy, if rightly trained, can be made into a gentleman and a great man; and in order to confute a friendly objecter decides to select from the workhouse a boy to experiment with. He chooses a boy with a bad reputation but with excellent instincts, and adopts him, the story narrating the adventures of the mercurial lad who thus finds himself suddenly lifted several degrees in the social scale. The idea is novel and handled with Mr. Manville Fenn's accustomed cleverness, the restless boyish nature, with its inevitable tendency to get into scrapes, being sympathetically and often humorously drawn.

Dick O' the Fens : A Eomance of the Great East Swamp. By G. Manville Fenn. With 12 full-page Illustrations by Frank Dadd. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

"We conscientiously believe that boys will find it capital reading. It is full of incident and mystery, and the mystery is kept up to the last moment. It is rich in effective local colouring; and it has a certain historical interest as well, when it paints the resistance of the rough-and-ready semi-savages to the drainage schemes. " Times.

" We should say that in Dick o' the Fens Mr. Manville Fenn has very nearly attained perfection. Life in the Fen country in the old ante-drainage days is

admirably reproduced. . . . Altogether we have not of late come across a historical fiction, whether intended for boys or for men, which deserves to be so heartily and unreservedly praised as regards plot, incidents, and spirit as Dick o' the Fens. It is its author's masterpiece as yet. "—Spectator.

Devon Boys: A Tale of the North Shore. By G. Manville

Fenn. With 12 full - page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine

"An admirable story, as remarkable for the individuality of its young heroes as for the excellent descriptions of coast scenery and life in North Devon. It is one of the best books we have seen this season." Athenaeum. "We do not know that Mr. Fenn has ever reached a higher level than he has in Devon Boys. It must be put in the very front rank of Christmas books."— Spectator.

BrOWnsmith's Boy. By G. Manville Fenn. With 12 full- page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant,

olivine edges, 6s.

"Mr. Fenn's books are among the best, if not altogether the best, of the stories for boys. Mr. Fenn is at his best in ' Brownsmith's Boy.' "—Pictorial World. " 'Brownsmith's Boy' must rank among the few undeniably good boys' books. He will be a very dull boy indeed who lays it down without wishing that it had gone on for at least 100 pages more. " North British Mail. — — — — —

BLACKIE & SON'S BOOKS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.

BY GEORGE MANVILLE FENN. " Our boys know Mr. Fenn well, his stories having won for him a foremost place in their estimation." Pall Mall Gazette.

Land: The Story of a Wild Journey in New Guinea. Bunyip Qj By G. Manville Fenn. With 12 full -page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

" Mr. Fenn deserves the thanks of everybody for ' Bunyip Land,' and we may ven- ture to promise that a quiet week may be reckoned on whilst the youngsters have such fascinating literature provided for their evenings' amusement." Spectator. "One of the best tales of adventure produced by any living writer, combining the inventiveness of Jules Verne, and the solidity of character and earnestness of spirit which have made the English victorious in so many fields."— Da ily Chronicle.

The Golden Magnet: A Tale of the Land of the Incas. By G. Manville Fenn. Illustrated by 12 full-page Pictures by Gordon Browne, in black and tint. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine

"This is, we think, the best boys' book Mr. Fenn has produced. . . . The illustrations are perfect in their way." Globe. " There could be no more welcome present for a boy. There is not a dull page in the book, and many will be read with breathless interest. ' The Golden Mag- net ' is, of course, the same one that attracted Raleigh and the heroes of ' West- ! ward Ho ' "—Journal of Education.

In the King's Name: Or the Cruise of the Kestrel. By G. Manville Fenn. Illustrated by 12 full-page Pictures by Gordon Browne, in black and tint. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant,

olivine edges, 6s.

" A capital boys' story, full of incident and adventure, and told in the lively style in which Mr. Fenn is such an adept." Globe. " The best of all Mr. Fenn's productions in this field. It has the great quality of always 'moving on,' adventure following adventure in constant succession." Daily News. BY SARAH DOUDNEY.

Under False Colours. By Sarah Doudnet. With 12 full- page Illustrations by G. G. Kilburne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant

olivine edges, 6s.

A story which, while it is eminently suitable for girls' reading because of the purity of its style, its genuine pathos and healthy sentiment, has in it so strong a dramatic element that it will attract readers of all ages and of either sex. The incidents of the plot, arising from the thoughtless indul- gence of a deceptive freak, are exceedingly natural, and the keen interest of the narrative is sustained from beginning to end. Under False Colours is a book which will rivet the attention, amuse the fancy, and touch the heart. It is worthy of the high reputation attained by the author as a writer of stories interesting as novels and destined for the delight of the home circle. — — —

Mr. Henty has produced a story which will give young readers an un- surpassed insight into the customs of the Egyptian people. Amuba, a prince of the Kebu nation on the shores of the Caspian, is carried with his charioteer Jethro into slavery. They become inmates of the house of Ameres, the Egyptian high-priest, and are happy in his service until the priest's son accidentally kills the sacred cat of Bubastes. In an outburst

"The best feature of the book, apart from its scenes of adventure, is its honest effort to do justice to the patriotism of the Afghan people. "—Daily News. "Not only a rousing story, replete with all the varied forms of excitement of a campaign, but, what is still more useful, an account of a territory and its inhabi- tants which must for a long time possess a supreme interest for Englishmen, as being the key to our Indian Empire." Glasgoiv Herald.

In the production of this Work the Publishers have aimed at giving a really valuable and trustworthy Atlas at a reasonable price. The Political Maps will be found to give the most recent Geographical information, and the printing of all the Maps has been

executed with the greatest care. Of the many Atlases which have appeared of late, it ifi perhaps not too much to expect that for accuracy, excellence of printing, and cheapness, "Johnstons' Cosmographic Atlas" will take the lead over all others of a similar class.
