A delightful volume, including as it does under its covers

three old favourites, is Jackanapes, Daddy Darwin's Dovecot, and Lob Lie- by-the-Fire, by Juliana Horatia Ewing, illustrated by Randolph Caldecott (S.P.C.K.) Author and artist are both beyond the reach of praise ; but if by chance there is any one who does not know how happily pen and pencil were combined to set forth these stories, he cannot do better than at once repair his ignorance.
