Every house that has children in it needs "The Nursery" for their profit
and delight; and every childless house needs it for the sweet
portraiture it gives of childhood.--_Northampton Journal_.
"The Nursery" continues to be without a rival in its own field, and
fills its place so well that none need wish for anything better. The
idea that anything is good enough for the little ones finds no place in
the mind of its editor, and both stories and pictures are of the
choicest.--_Chicago Advance._
No better outlay of money can be made for children than in subscription
to such a magazine as "The Nursery," as it affords not only pleasure,
but real benefit.--_Richmond (Va.) Religious Herald._
We again repeat our hope that no family in this country, in which there
is a child or children, will be without this beautiful, simple, and
natural little magazine.--_Marshall (Mich.) Expounder._
Of the many attempts to imitate it, all have failed. We are proud of
such an American journal for children.--_Illinois Schoolmaster._
Teachers who have tried it say that it charms the children into learning
to read. Blessings on the sunny "Nursery"! Far and near may households
be brightened by its presence!--_Massachusetts Teacher._
A bright, pleasant little pictorial, with which the smallest children
able to read at all may be amused and instructed. Parents looking for
such reading will be interested in it.--_N.Y. Tribune._
"The Nursery" is the very best magazine that we know for children. It is
beautifully illustrated, and the stories are _always clean and pure_,
inculcating kindness to one another and to animals. Its lessons are all
in favor of truth, honor, and honesty. It should be in every family
where there are young children to be entertained and
instructed.--_Woman's Journal._
"The Nursery" is 'a magazine for youngest readers,' and, as we know by
its use in our own family, most admirably adapted for the purpose for
which it is intended.--_Charleston (S.C.) Carolinian._
Those who wish to furnish their little ones, just learning to read, with
something fresh,--something written with great care, and illustrated
with skill, to which the ordinary 'primers' cannot and do not
attain,--should provide themselves with "The Nursery."--_Detroit Post._
To those of our readers who have young children of their own, or who are
called on to suggest quiet amusement for little patients, we can
conscientiously commend "The Nursery," a monthly juvenile magazine
published in Boston, as the only periodical we have been able to find
suited to the comprehension of children under ten or twelve years of
age.--_N.Y. Medical Gazette._
