Prof. I.T. HEADLAND'S FASCINATING CHILDREN'S BOOKS
Chinese Mother Goose Rhymes
Translated and illustrated by Prof. Headland of Peking University. Small quarto, boards, net $1.00
"As full of sweets as a Canton jar of sugared ginger. It is perfectly delightful to look at, for without, and within on every page, are rolling, tumbling, playing Chinese little folks. This book ought to do a great deal toward awakening sympathy and affection for the East."—S.S. Times.
The Chinese Boy and Girl
Fully illustrated. Quarto, boards, decorated, net $1.00
"'Chinese Mother Goose' opened a large window through which we may see much that has been hidden. Now comes the 'Chinese Boy and Girl,' with another revelation, which is even more an introduction to the nursery, the school-room, the play ground. It is a cheery picture that it gives of the little folk of that empire, and cannot fail to make their far-away mates think more kindly of them. The hundred or more illustrations from photographs specially selected by Professor Headland, rival the artistic excellence of his earlier book."—Worcester Spy.
The "Billy Topsail" Books
By NORMAN DUNCAN
The Adventures of Billy Topsail
Illustrated, cloth, $1.50
"There was no need to invent conditions or imagine situations. The life of any lad of Billy Topsail's years up there is sufficiently romantic. It is this skill in the portrayal of actual conditions that lie ready to the hand of the intelligent observer that makes Mr. Duncan's Newfoundland stories so noteworthy. 'The Adventures of Billy Topsail' is a wonderful book."—Brooklyn Eagle.
Billy Topsail and Company
Illustrated, cloth, $1.50
Every boy who knows Billy Topsail will welcome this continuation of his adventuresome life in the North. Like its predecessor, the new volume is a stirring story for boys, true to life, among the hardy sons of the sea, clean, pure and stimulating.

Convention Teacher: "An admirable book in every way. The writer has read many of the stories to his own children, and they have been received with delight. We commend the book to mothers and to the teachers of little children."
Scottish Review: "Here is a book which many will welcome. The authoress has considerable experience and real skill in the art of imparting religious ideas to very young minds, as well as a manifest love of such labor."
Religious Telescope: "If it were in our power it would be introduced into every home where there is a child."
Central Presbyterian: "Best of its kind we have yet seen."
Southwestern Christian Advocate: "Tells the little ones in a way quite original and exceptional the beautiful stories of the Old Testament."
Evangelical: "It is a pleasure to recommend a book that will supply a long-felt need on the part of the Christian mother. The nature study which abounds throughout the book in one of its strong attractions, teaching the little children to associate the beauties of natural animal life with God, the giver of all these blessings."
