The atmosphere of army life on the plains breathes on every page of this delightful tale. The boy is the son of a captain of U. S. cavalry stationed at a frontier post in the days when our regulars earned the gratitude of a nation. His military training is begun at a very early age; and how well he profits by the soldierly qualities of manhood and honor and modesty and courtesy instilled is brought out in a series of incidents and adventures which will appeal to every youngster, and to many of their elders. Every phase of garrison life is included, for, though an officer’s son, his friends range from the colonel commanding to the trooper who taught him to ride his Indian pony. The author is herself “of the army,” and knows every detail of the life. From reveille to retreat her descriptions are accurate, which adds to the value and interest of the book. “Yours with All My Heart:” The Autobiography of a Real Dog. By Esther M. Baxendale. With nearly a hundred illustrations from photographs and from drawings by Etheldred B. Barry. Large 12mo, cloth decorative . . . $1.50 Mrs. Baxendale’s charming story, though written primarily for children, will find a warm welcome from all those who love animals.

The Roses of St. Elizabeth. By Jane Scott Woodruff, author of “The Little Christmas Shoe.” 12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated . . . $1.00 This is a charming little story of a child whose father was caretaker of the great castle of the Wartburg, where St. Elizabeth once had her home, with a fairy-tale interwoven in which the roses and the ivy in the castle yard tell to the child and her playmate quaint old legends of the saint and the castle. This is just the sort of a story that girls love, with its sweetness and its fragrance and its faint echo of days long gone, with a suspicion of present-day romance at the end. Songs and Rhymes for the Little Ones. Compiled by Mary Whitney Morrison (Jenny Wallis). New edition, with an introduction by Mrs. A. D. T. Whitney, with eight illustrations. One vol., large 12mo, cloth decorative . . . $1.00 No better description of this admirable book can be given than Mrs. Whitney’s happy introduction: “One might almost as well offer June roses with the assurance of their sweetness, as to present this lovely little gathering of verse, which announces itself, like them, by its deliciousness. Yet as Mrs. Morrison’s charming volume has long been a delight to me, I am only too happy to link my name with its new and enriched form in this slight way, and simply declare that it is to me the most bewitching book of songs for little people that I have ever known.”
