Two American Magazines.

The excellence Of American Magazines has
become so well recognized abroad that one
of the leading English Papers, the London
Weekly Register, in a recent issue, thus
speaks of Scrlbner's Monthly:
9 Ne are constrained to otcp tint ScrjJuer's

shifting monthly serials tor briEia,scy of illus

tuly artistic porer. Ont of its ne and tce,,ty
original articles, ire really do not E,solc ,cltch to
choose as best, for eqrh and al are ecceile1t"
In the extent, variety and artistic excel
lence of its illustration of American themes,
it has never been even approached, much less
eXcelled. 1t has larger page and gives a
greater variety in It's contents than any other
Of the Standard American M0nthlies
In literary character, and in the brilliancy
and ability Of its Editorial Departments, it
enjoys an equal pre-eminenee.
1t conductors started With the definite
aim of making it the best magazine IN the
tcorid, of which they have never for mo-
ment lost sight, and they point with pride
and pleasure 10 the MAY and June numbers,
recently issued. and ask for them candid
examination and careful comparison of
their merits with those of other magazines;
and they renew their pledge to the public, to
strive for still higher excellence in the future
A considerable demand has recently arisen
in England for st. Nicholas, Scribners New
Magazine for Boys and Girls, one publisher
desiring to secure an edition Of three thou
sand Of the first bound volume (when com
pleted), with his imprint.
The success Of St. Nicholas in this country
has been even more remarkable than that of
ocribner's Monthly. 1t is pronounced to be
. an ideally perfect Magazine for children"
and, as is the case with all the best litera-
ture for children, it has been found to possess
surprising interest for grown up readers. as
we'll
The influence of the periodicals of the dav
can scarcely be estimated, especially upon
the rising generation. Parents and teachers
cannot afford TO be Indifferent TO this infIu-
ence, or careless in relation TO the character
of the literature furnished to the children
outside of their school lessons. In ST. Mich
olas not only are History, Natural Philoso.
ply, Literature, Fine Arts, and Manufactures
presented IN an attractive way to Young
readers, but the children are stimulated to
seek information for themselves.
The Publishers will send to any address
specimen number Of St. Nicholas, postage
pre- paid, on receipt of ten cents, the bare
cost Of paper and printing. The magazines
are sod by all frst-class Booksellers and
Newsdealers, everywhere.

According to the papers there is a law In ex-
istence IN Indiana allowing bounty on fox
and welt Ssalps. The act was passed by the late
Legislators. II fixes the bounty for wolf scalps
at So and for those OF foxes at s., provided the
animals killed are at least six months DID,
Charlottesville Journal.
There seems to be some misapprehension
throughout the state as to the provisions OF
this law. The last legislature simply au-
thoriEe5 county commissioners to provide foT
the payment of such bounty. Without this
actionlsn the part OF commissioners, money
can net be collected on the presentation OF
such claims by legal process. The scalps
must also be taken in the county where
the claim is presented. The bill making
these provisions was passed particularly in
the Interest of two or three counties
in the northwestern portion of the state,
wheTs these pests abound.
