CARNEGIE LIBRARY OF PITTSBURGH. EGGLESTON, G.C. The Last of the Flatboats. Lothrop. 1.50 The adventures of five boys on a trip down the Mississippi at the time of a great flood.

The legends connected with them are told to a group of eager girls. FRENCH, H.W. @The Lance of Kanana. Lothrop. 1.00 This Arab tale of a Bedouin boy of many years ago is so instinct with splendid patriotism that it is difficult to characterize it as sad, though in the end Kanana gives up his life for Allah and Arabia. A graphic picture of Oriental life, full of exciting experiences. HUGHES, THOMAS. (p. 165) Tom Brown's School Days at Rugby. Illustrated by E.J. Sullivan. Macmillan. 2.00 The one great story of school-boy life, telling of days at Rugby under the famous Dr. Arnold, and revealing the spiritual influence of a great master. INMAN, HENRY.

Buffalo Bill and General Custer appear in the story. CARNEGIE LIBRARY OF PITTSBURGH. Colonel Inman served under Generals Custer, Gibbs, Sully, and other famous Indian fighters, of whose staffs he was a member. Over forty years on the extreme frontier gave him a rare opportunity to study the Indian character.--_National Cyclopaedia of American Biography._ JANVIER, T.A. The Aztec Treasure House. Harper. 1.50 The scene of these stirring adventures is laid in Mexico of the present day, and the heroes, a little band of plucky men, penetrate to the heart of an unknown Aztec city. The well-written narrative is so full of exciting happenings that it is a favorable substitute for the ordinary sensational volume in which many boys find delight. KIPLING, RUDYARD. (p. 166) Captains Courageous.
