Mara.

More than a generation of girl readers have welcomed the 'Pansy" books. So Mrs. Alden is sure of her audience. This time her lesson in the guise of fiction (wherein she introduces four young wo- men separating at the end of their school days. and follows them thereafter throughout three hundred odd pages). is on the sacrament of matrimony. It is also an arraignment of Mormonism and the National Government for responsl- bility in it's continuance in this country nothrop Publishing Co.,, Boston.)

The Road-Mender.


 Mir. Hairless expresses his ideas in pure and graceful English. The roadmender IS his spokesman. who describes sympathet- ically those who pass him as he stands by the roadside hammering the rock, and who sometimes pause to tell him their experiences. Not all. however. whom he thus studies are human beings. "Of all the poor dumb pilgrims of the road, the bullocks are the most terrible to see. They are not patient. but go most un- willingly, with lowered head and furtive sideways motion, in their horror of great fear. The sleek cattle, knee deep In pas ture. massed at the gate and stared mild eyed and with inquiring below at the retreating drove; but these passed with out answer on to the Unknown. and for them 1t spelt death" But the roadmend- CT is not always roadmender. The scene fin the book changes twice. Out Of the shadow" and At the White Gate" are the titles of the second and third parts of the book. It is dainty volume, ana it is we'll fitted to add enjoyment to the oiuet hour. E. P. Dutton & Co.,, New York.)

Principles and Ideals for the Sunday
 Sehool

Those who have used the Constructive Studies in the Life of Christ will well come this new work by the same author. It seems to be. though not protesting to be. an earnest effort of what may be expected from the newly formed Religious Educational Association. With generous appreciation of all good work done here tofore, done in Sunday schools, 1t recog- nizes the fact that methods which were satisfactory ten years ago have become atiquated in the present supremacy of the historical method; that the present generation is suffering from much ignor- ant and fanaticaI Bible teaching to which it has been subjected; that the churches must arouse themselves to readjust their methods and ideals of Bible study, lest these suffer shame in contrast with thos of secular instruction. No more variable book on the various problems of
 the Sunday school has yet appeared University of Chicago Press. Chicago) Janet Ward, a Daughter of the Manse
 A most delightful, pure. wholesome story of a girl or girls. who sought a "career," and happily married. They are not natural girls. The story is some what overdrawn.

The History of France.

4uS nlSJoTy VI 1IdACc.
 To his other valuable volumes Mir. Ar thur Hassall has now added a small History of rFance." which should appeal to students, since, so far as We know, 1t is the first work of its kind to cover French history to the present date. Its value. however. is as a book of refer ence rather than a connected history. The necessity of condensation into the narrow limits of the little volumes of this series has played havoc with the de- scription. Mir. Hassall has not been able to give more than the barest outline of the great movements which has made French history potable; for example. he has but six pages to discover the events from Napoleon's fall to M. Loubet's cleo tion. However. for the kind of book which this must perforce be. 1t is doubt full whether 1t could have been done bet ter by M. Lavisse. M. Rambaud. or any other author of the admirable short his- tories of France now Tn use in the public schools of that country. CThe McMillan Co.,, New York.)

Dealers Say It Will Go No Lower Dur
 ing the Summer.
 The long expected drop ill the prlce of anthracite coal took place to-day. Hard coal can now be purchased from the local dealers for $7.O0 a ton. This price will remain in force for about a month or two when it will be raised about 25 cents. Coal will be 75 cents a ton dearer this spring and summer than last year. Last year the open ing price, which went into effect May i, was $6.25 a ton, while the opening price this year a month earlier is $70O. The price of coal will be increased a small amount per ton every month or two. Thus the public will pay for the miners strike and their shorter hours and increased wages. The op- orators will lose nothing. One of the local dealers said to-day that the price of coal would not be lower this year. The opening price has been fixed at $7.O0 a ton. which price will be in creased and not decreased as the months fly by. Tn Bridgeport the price is S6.0O per ton. but the cost of the freightage from the Park City to Waterbury is about 30 cents a ton and there are other expenses which amount to about 25 cents a ton. The price of hitun1inous coal is also 75 cents fo S1.O0 higher than last year Pea coal now costs $500 ton.

THE FIDDLER NUISANCE.
Vendors Appear as Regular as the
 Flowers of Spring.

Peddlers have commenced to ply their trade and from now on they will be lodging each other about the city streets There is lots of room for the whole of them and probably the public would not find much fault about them 1T they would but manage to dispose of their stock without waking up the whole town. One of them was on Bank street to-day and the way he yelled Onfons, four quarts for ten cents," would make one believe that he was being chased for his life by a wild beast These vendors made some trou- ble few years ago but the officers brought one or two of them up with a short turn and after that they stopped shouting and attended strictly to busi- ness. Of course, shout or not shout, | storekeepers who rent buildings and l pay taxes upon their stock feel ag- grieved at the idea of strangers coming around and taking their customers and paying nothing for the privilege of do Ing business, but it seems to be hard ! to prevent this. The best way to knock the peddler out is to drop cent l below him in the price of such goods | as he offers for sale. A dealer told a Democrat reporter that he could af- ford to do this if his customers would
 come down with the cash as promptly
 to him as they do the fellow who goes
 about with the wagon but he says they
 will not do that. Many go out to a
 stranger on the wagon with the ready
 money because they imagine they are getting bargains and then come to him
 with their book and wonder why he cannot do as we'll for them as the ped- dler. He said. he was of the opinion
 that the same thing would apply to
 almost every permanep. dealer in Wa
 terbury and hoped that they would
 some day get together and agree to do l a strictly cash business.
