What Shall We Give to Our Boys and Girls? "WIDE AWAKE has no superior in the world as a wide awake young folks' monthly.-Advertiser, London, Ont. There are so many pitfalls in the path toward culture which our boys and girls must tread, so much that is really harmful to the growing mind, in the mass of literature, that the perplexed parent, desiring only the best, relies on what he knows is good, as does the anxious mariner on his sheet anchor in a drifting storm. Such a sheet anchor is the young people's magazine, WIDE AWAKE— a periodical that has stood the tests of time, of rivalry, the acknowledged leader of all the young people's magazines. The Christmas issue of WIDE number and a gift book combined. The Christmas number for 1890 AWAKE has always been a notable production, and unique--both as a holiday cannot fail to be a delightful surprise to its hosts of readers and friends. Greatly enlarged (100 pages), resplendent in a new form and dress-a perfect feast of To it, indeed, may be applied the praise of Milton-though to a different subject—for from cover to cover the Christmas WIDE AWAKE is truly "A perpetual feast of nectar'd sweets, Some of the stories, articles, etc.: "Five Little Peppers Grown Up," by MARGARET SIDNEY; "Cab and Caboose," by KIRK MONROE; "Sister Agnes's Basket," a genuine Christmas story, by CHARLOTTE M.

Count Tolstoi's short sketches of Russian life, inspired generally by some pregnant text of Scripture, and written for the masses, perhaps even more than his longer works show the man's real greatness. Sixteen of these, selected from various publications, are here presented in a neat and attractive volume. THE NARRATIVE OF CAPTAIN COIGNET, SOLDIER OF THE EMPIRE, 1776-1850. An autobiographical account of one of Napoleon's Body Guard. Fully illustrated. 12mo, half leather, $2.50; half calf, $5.00. The recollections of Captain Coignet, perfectly authenticated, came to us like a voice from those mighty masses who under Napoleon made Europe tremble almost a hundred years ago. It is the record of the daily doings of a private soldier, who fought in many great campaigns. They are marked by quaint frankness and naïveté, an honest boastfulness thoroughly Gallic, and a keen sense of the picturesque value of truth. Nothing like these memoirs has ever been published. They are original, shrewd, clever, and they make the Napoleonic days live again. BRAMPTON SKETCHES; OR, OLD NEW ENGLAND LIFE. By Mrs. WILLIAM CLAFLIN. Illustrated. 16mo, unique binding, $1.25. The old New England life is rapidly fading, not only from existence, but even from the memory of people. It is, therefore, well that those who were in touch with the best elements of this quaint and homely life should put upon paper and perpetuate its traditions and half-forgotten memories. This Mrs. Claflin has done for the town of Hopkinton, where her grandparents lived, and “Brampton Sketches" stand out as a truthful record of a peculiarly interesting provincial town. GOLD NAILS TO HANG MEMORIES ON. A Rhyming Review, under their Christian names, of Old Acquaintances in History, Literature, and Friendship. By ELIZABETH A. ALLEN. 8vo, gilt edges, $2.50. This is the most original autograph book ever published. It aims to give a history and record of the more or less familiar Christian names, and at the same time to commemorate the most familiar and famous men and women who have borne them. The book, therefore, has not only an interest of its own, but is distinctively educational. Spaces are left on each page for autographs. lated from the Twenty-third German Edition by W. HENRY and ELIZABETH R. WINSLOW. 12mo, cloth, $1.50. This masterpiece among Julius Wolff's prose romances is laid in medieval times and, as in "The Saltmaster," the author has caught the spirit of those days and transferred it to his pages. A notable addition to our list of historical fiction. TOM BROWN'S SCHOOL DAYS. BY THOMAS HUGHES.

Edition de Luxe, limited to 250 numbered copies, large paper, Japan proofs mounted, $5.00. Praise or comment on this classic would be a work of supererogation. Every parent sooner or later puts it into his children's hands. We can only say that the present edition of this classic is by all odds the best that has ever been offered to the American public. Printed from large type, well illustrated, and handsomely bound, it makes a book worthy of any library. FAM AMOUS EUROPEAN ARTISTS. By Mrs. SARAH K.

BOLTON, author of "Poor Boys Who Became Famous," etc. With portraits of Scott, Burns, Carlyle, Dickens, Tennyson, Robert Browning, etc. 12mo, $1.50. During a recent visit abroad, Mrs. Bolton had an opportunity of visiting many of the scenes made memorable by the residence or writings of the best-known English authors, and the incidents which she was thus enabled to invest with a personal interest she has woven into the sketches of Tennyson, Ruskin, Browning, and the other authors of whom she writes. These two companion volumes are among the best of the well-known "Famous" series. FAMILY MANNERS. BY ELIZABETH GLOVER, author of Talks about a Fine Art," etc. Booklet. Half cloth, 30 cents.

Artistic cover of two colored cloths, beautifully ornamented, full gilt, $3.75; Turkey Morocco, $9.00; Tree Calf, $10.00; English Seal Style, $7.00. "As one dwells with delight over these pictures, turning from one to another with ever fresh pleasure and interest, they seem to impregnate the very air with a summer fragrance, and are instinct with a realism that holds the senses enthralled. They do indeed tell us of hills in sunshine; meadows with perfumed air; of the brook fringed with flowering grasses, and cool, quiet reflections; the winding path that suggests the cottage life just over the hills, with its warm blue breathings of the hidden hearth; of the healing breath of the pine woods; music of quiet waters; of white sands washed by the waves of the sea blue with heaven's own reflection; lengthening shadows; day done and quiet over all.' In the study of these pictures the heart is touched and one feels that a full sympathy with these lovely aspects of nature adds sweetness to life, and that through nature a blessing of joy is ours. What more need we say of the splendid work here given? Only to remark that to see is to fall in love with it, for emphatically does it speak for itself. Preceding each picture is a leaf upon one page of which is an exquisite design in connection with a very brief quotation germane to the subject of the engraving."-Boston Home Journal. AN OLD LOVE LETTER. MISS JEROME'S LATEST WORK. Designed and illuminated by IRENE E. JEROME, author of "One Year's Sketch Book," Nature's Hallelujah," In a Fair Country," "A Bunch of Violets," "A Message of the Bluebird," etc. Antique covers, tied with Silk. Boxed, $1.00. "One of the most charming things possible in its line, and bearing on its every page, and throughout its every thought, the fragrance of truly divine message, is From an Old Love Letter, by Irene Jerome. The mention of her name is sufficient to guarantee beauty of design and daintiness of execution, but the gem in question deserves an attempt at description. Loose silk cords confine it, from side to side, caught and held by a pretty monogram stamped in brown sealing wax. The title-page is beautifully illuminated in gold, yellow and brown, its active meaning being emphasized by a small dove, bearing a letter, fastened by a cord around its neck. The first page bears a quotation from Thomas à Kempis, followed, on further pages, by selections from the Bible, each delightfully surrounded and embellished with a graceful design in gilt and color. The Finis has an equally attractive representation on the last page. The whole is beautiful and artistic to a degree--the essence and embodiment of loving, dainty thought.-Boston Times. ALL AROUND THE YEAR-1891. Designed in Sepiatint and Color by J. PAULINE SUNTER. Printed on heavy cardboard, gilt edges, with chain, tassels, and rings. Size, 4 3-4 x 5 1-2 inches.

Pauline Sunter, each page is a charming reminder of the month of the year and its days. The designs are mostly of chubby children, some quaintly dressed, others not dressed at all, but all with such good cheer in their faces that it seems as though the new month must open brightly. In addition to the calendar, at the side of each page there is an appropriate quotation. The cards are separate and tied with white silk cord and a chain attached.

Large 8vo, $3.50. "We may best differentiate Mr. Wilson's work from that of its predecessors by saying that it is pictorial. He gives the reader a view of the localities which previous students and explorers or traditions have identified. His pen seems to have caught something of the spirit of his art, and to be almost as photographic in its realistic portraiture as his camera.”—Dr. Lyman Abbott. HOW THE OTHER HALF LIVES.
