America's Story for America's Children, by Mara L. Pratt, attempts to lead children along the course of American history by a connected chain of incidents, narratives, and romantic biographical description. This volume begins with the Northmen, and tells of Christopher Columbus; of Montezuma, of Mexico; of North American Indians, of our early settlements, especially the Pilgrim Fathers, with Betty Alden much in evidence. There is a chapter on the Dutch colonists, in which Katrina and Hans Van Tassel are brought into the foreground, and another about the Boston boys and the growing spirit of insurrection that leads up to the Revolutionary War. It has a story of the War of 1812, and concludes with a Southern story called "The Boy in Gray." (D. C. Heath & Co.)

Fifer-Boy of the Boston Siege, by Edward A. Rand (Boston: A. I. Bradley & Co.), is a Revolutionary story that deals with the fortunes of Tom Parker, who becomes a fifer for the patriots. There is a good description of Paul Revere's ride, and of the scenes and events in and about Boston that have become historical.

In the Days of Alfred the Great, by Eva March Tappan (Lee & Shepard), is a very useful compilation of stories, some familiar and others new to the general reader, translated from original sources by the author, and brought together in illustration of the period of the great Englishman whose thousandth anniversary is now approaching.

In Beowulf, the Hero of the Anglo-Saxons, by Zenaïde A. Ragozin (New York: William Beverly Harrison), the Beowulf legends are retold in a charming way. Although in an educational series, it is quite as suitable for the home and family as for the school. In this connection may well be mentioned several numbers of Heath's "Home and School Classics," admirably reëdited by such well-known authors as Edward Everett Hale and Elizabeth Stuart-Phelps. Among these we find Jackanapes, by Mrs. Ewing; The Wonderful Chair and the Tales It Told, by Frances Browne; Chapters on Animals, by Philip Gilbert Hamerton; Goody Two Shoes, by Oliver Goldsmith, and others. These books, well printed, in paper covers, and at a low price, will be welcome in many a household. The House-Boat on the St. Lawrence, by Everett T. Tomlinson (Lee & Shepard), is a sequel to last year's book called Camping on the St. Lawrence, and the same four boys who had pleasant adventures in that story now study Canadian history under the cliffs of Frontenac, in addition to their experiences of life in a house-boat.

NAN'S CHICOPEE
CHILDREN

which we must not pause to relate, had hardened and invigorated him so that in this book he returns to school, establishes a rival club of young sportsmen, and we have a sequence of fishing matches, boat-races, and all sorts of wholesome sports. (Lee & Shepard.)

SOME STORIES ESPECIALLY FOR GIRLS. Myra Sawyer Hamlin has now written, as the third and concluding volume of her popular Chicopee series, a book called Nan's Chicopee Children. The heroine has been doing nursing work in Porto Rico, where her husband, who is a physician, had been serving with the army. A rich friend had become interested in Nan's idea of taking poor children into the country, and helped her to found a summer home for poor girls and boys. The doctor builds a small hospital in connection with this country home, and sends poor children to it as he finds them in his city practice. These little invalids are Nan's Chicopee children, and give title to the book. The idea of helpfulness inculcated in this story is one that has a prominent place in a good many of the books written nowadays for girls. (Little, Brown & Co.)

Another of these stories of philanthropy is called The Story of Delight, by Evelyn Raymond. The young heroine is obliged by the death of those nearest to her to accept the rather cold hospitality of some distant relatives, where she sees something of the painful and unpleasant side of life; all of which is intended providentially to prepare her for the better fortune that awaits her. The villain in the plot makes a confession which brings to our heroine an ample fortune, of which her grandfather had been defrauded; and this enables her to go back to her old home at Seabury, where she launches out into a career of philanthropy on the most approved lines. (A. I. Bradley & Co.)

Almost as Good as a Boy, by Amanda M. Douglas (Lee & Shepard), is a story about a girl who, if her unselfishness did not reach out to the community at large, at least turned the scale of fortune for her and her family. The death of her father had left a straitened situation, and, in order to be of help to her mother, she goes to work in the hat factory of an uncle in a distant city. The uncle is rich, rheumatic, and something of an old skinflint; but our little heroine nurses him in illness and completely wins him over, to the great advantage of her folks at home.

Not quite so altruistic, yet tinged with that spirit, is Helen Leah Reed's story called Brenda, Her School and Her Club (Little, Brown & Co.). It is instructive in its information about Boston, and it tells of schoolgirl life and incidents, with a bazaar organized by the girls of the story,-all, of course, for charitable purposes. Simply saturated with altruistic work, however, is the story by Adelaide L. Rouse, entitled Helen Beaton, College Woman (Bradley). Helen, after leaving college, engages in so-called settlement work in the city slums, where her good work is not completely interrupted by her happy marriage, for the reason that she marries a young man who is also engaged in that kind of work.

A Plucky Girl, by Laura T. Meade (George W. Jacobs & Co.), is the story of a young person who has to do something to support her mother. She has the fortitude to open a boarding-house, which does not make ends meet; and to save the family situation, which grows desperate, she is about to marry the wrong In due time the right man, who had not been drowned, after all, reappears, and virtue is rewarded all around. The philanthropic idea in girls' stories is not

man.

confined to the Atlantic seaboard. The Girls of Bonnie Castle, by Izola L. Forrester (Jacobs), is a Western story. A summer cottage on the shores of Lake Michigan, where the girls have a little club, worked out the idea of a summer home for poor children from Chicago.

The point of view is shifted somewhat in Randy's Summer, a story by Amy Brooks (Lee & Shepard), from the giver of benefits to the receiver. Randy is herself a nice country girl of fourteen, and her summer, with that of her neighbors, is greatly brightened by the advent of a sensible young lady from the city, who helps the country neighborhood to enjoy itself in a pleasant and rational way. The Play Lady, by Ella Farman Pratt (Crowell), is the story of a girl left penniless and motherless and with the care of an invalid aunt. She has a comfortable house, however, and devises the plan of taking charge of a dozen or more children several mornings each week, relieving their mothers, and giving the children their luncheon and agreeable amusement.

Laura E. Richards has a new story, a very charming and touching one, entitled Snow-White; or, the House in the Wood (Dana Estes & Co.). Snow-White is a little child who wanders away and becomes lost, weary, and hungry. She finds at length a little house occupied by a solitary man, who is a dwarf. His kindness wins her confidence and friendship, and she explains that her parents had gone to New York, and that she had run away from her governess. She proves to be the child of the woman who had jilted him in his youth and driven him to his life as a hermit. The child is restored to her home, but maintains her friendship for the solitary man in the woods.

A Child of Glee, and How She Saved the Queen, by A. G. Plympton (Little, Brown & Co.), is the adventure of a small girl from the town of Biddeford, Maine, who is traveling abroad with her father and witnesses the coronation of a child-queen in the kingdom of Averill. Strange circumstances make her the friend of the queen and enable her to circumvent a plot. A Little American Girl in India, by Harriet A. Cheever (Little, Brown & Co.), is a very interesting and instructive story, the character of which is indicated by its title.

SOME BOOKS OF SPECIAL INTEREST TO BOYS.

Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe (Russell) makes its -appearance in a new edition, with illustrations of admirable freshness and originality, drawn by the Brothers Rhead. It is to be noted that the artists made a special voyage to the Island of Tobago, where the scene of the story is laid, in order to match the realism of Defoe's narrative with pictures that show the precise sandy patch upon which Friday saw the footprints.

The Boys' Book of Exploration (Doubleday, Page & Co.) is by Tudor Jenks, and is made up of a series of tales of heroes of travel and discovery, chiefly in our own generation, in all parts of Asia, Africa, and other parts of the world. Mr. Hezekiah Butterworth, in Jack's Carrier Pigeons (A. I. Bradley & Co.), tells a tale of the times of the Mariners' Home and Father Taylor, the well-known Boston preacher, whose mission was especially to sailors.

The Delahoides: Boy Life on the Old Santa Fé Trail (Topeka, Kan: Crane & Co.), by Col. Henry Inman, is a story of certain boys who were grandsons of Pierre Delahoide, an old-time French-Canadian trapper, who had married a Cheyenne squaw. Their life on the ranch, their love for animals, and their coming in con

tact with famous men make, altogether, a thrilling story. By Way of the Wilderness (Lothrop) is a story by "Pansy" of a boy who leaves home because of a disagreement with his stepmother, gives up his college career, and tries to make his own way in a hard world. He gains experience, if not success, and at the right time becomes reconciled with his family. Playground Toni (Crowell), by Anna Chapin Ray, tells the story of the Jewish quarter of a crowded city slum, where certain young ladies have established a playground in connection with a school. Of all the ragged children that they bring together, Toni is the worst. In due time he is won by tact and kindness.

About the very best books of all for boys are those that Mr. Dan C. Beard prepares for them, because Mr. Beard shows them how to do things for themselves. The Jack of All Trades (Scribners) is his latest book, and its suggestions will keep many a boy profitably busy. Incidentally, it may be remarked that the chapters devoted to animal life teach boys to regard dogs and the other animals about them with the same sort of thoughtful kindness they might give to their younger brothers. Boy Donald (Lee & Shepard), by Penn Shirley, although a complete story in itself, is in some sense a sequel to earlier books, and it describes life in Southern California. The Adventures of Joel Pepper (Lothrop), by Margaret Sidney, have to do with the scrapes of the most harum-scarum member of the Pepper family.

Half a Dozen Thinking Caps (Crowell), by Mary F. Leonard, is the story of six active boys formed into a Thinking Cap Circle by a young lady just out of college.

James Otis' story of Aunt Hannah and Seth (Crowell) tells of a crippled newsboy who passes a bad nickel by accident and, under fear of arrest, escapes to the country, where he makes himself so useful to a certain Aunt Hannah that she gives him a home. He saves her life in a fire, and she, in turn, sees the advertisement in a newspaper that tells why the lawyers wanted him. It was not for passing the bad nickel by mistake, but to inform him that a legacy of $5,000 was awaiting him.

FIVE OTHER GOOD BOOKS FOR THE YOUNG. Chatterbox: 1900 (Dana Estes & Co.), edited by J. Erskine Clarke, is, as in former years, full of entertaining and varied reading matter and pictures. Sunday Reading for the Young: 1901 (E. & J. B. Young & Co.), is a volume of collected stories, not of the biblical or strictly religious nature, but of an instructive and useful quality. The Little Bible (Doubleday & McClure), by J. W. Mackail, is a collection of Old Testament stories rewritten carefully and simply for young children. From the pen of George L. Weed we have A Life of St. Paul for the Young and A Life of St. John for the Young (Jacobs), each of these taking up in chronological order the incidents and scenes in the life of its subject, with such citations from their words and teachings as may well help the young to realize their greatness.
