CHRISTMAS ANNUALS.
WE have before us a number of the annual children's publica- tions that reach us at this time of year. First must be mentioned The Boy's Own Annual (Religious Tract Society, 8s.), which maintains the high standard which it has always reached, and the equally excellent Girl's Own Annual (same publishers and price). Next comes The Sunday at Home (same publishers, 7s. 6d.), which makes its appeal to older readers. Then comes The Empire Annual for Boys, edited by A. R. Buckland (same publishers, 3s. 6d.), full of the most thrilling stories, and its companion volume, The Empire Annual for Girls, with the same editor, publishers, and price.—For younger children are provided The Rosebud Annual (James Clarke and Co., 3s.) and The Child's Empire Picture Annual (Religious Tract Society, 3s. 6d.), both of them full of cheerful pictures. Finally we may mention two cheaper volumes of a similar character, Our Little Dots Annual and The Child's Companion- Annual (same publishers, is. 6d. each).
