Bound in substantial red buckram. Each volume complete in itself

COMMON THINGS
New, Enlarged Edition, 850 pp. Profusely Illustrated
"A book which will be of permanent value to any boy or girl to
whom it may be given, and which fills a place in the juvenile
library, never, so far as I know, supplied before."--_Susan
Coolidge._
PERSONS AND PLACES
New, Up-to-Date Edition, 985 pp. Over 375 Illustrations
"We know copies of the work to which their young owners turn
instantly for information upon every theme about which they have
questions to ask. More than this, we know that some of these
copies are read daily, as well as consulted; that their owners
turn the leaves as they might those of a fairy book, reading
intently articles of which they had not thought before seeing
them, and treating the book simply as one capable of furnishing
the rarest entertainment in exhaustless quantities."--_N. Y.
Evening Post._
LITERATURE AND ART
604 pp. 270 Illustrations
"Few poems, plays, novels, pictures, statues, or fictitious
characters that children--or most of their parents--of our day
are likely to inquire about will be missed here. Mr. Champlin's
judgment seems unusually sound."--_The Nation._
GAMES AND SPORTS
By JOHN D. CHAMPLIN and ARTHUR BOSTWICK
Revised Edition, 784 pp. 900 Illustrations
"Should form a part of every juvenile library, whether public or
private."--_The Independent._
