We gladly welcome certain old favourites, all of them published

by Messrs. Wells Gardner, Dation, and Co. Precedence must be accorded to Chatterbox (3s., and 5s. cloth). Its four hundred and

twelve pages are filled with attractive matter. Young readers will find something about flying in tho air, about strange things

in the sea ; tales, true and other, are provided for them. They may learn something about pictures, and may amuse themselves if they will with puzzles and the like. Not the least interesting is a series of papers about the horse as a "beast of business."—

The title of Sunday (3s.) indicates its purpose. It has always seemed to us to accomplish this—not an easy matter, by the way—with

great success. The illustrations are particularly good.—The Prise (1s. 6d.) is on a smaller scale, and intended for younger readers, as is also Leading Strings (2a. 6d.), with its larger type. Both are worthy of high commendation.
