d oh! the wonderful pictures inside. Get this book if you can; it is capital, all through."--Pall Mall Budget. English Fairy Tales. Edited by Joseph Jacobs. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00. "The tales are simply delightful. No amount of description can do them justice. The only way is to read the book through from cover to cover. The book is intended to correspond to 'Grimm's Fairy Tales,' and it must be allowed that its pages fairly rival in interest those of that well-known repository of folk-lore."--Morning Herald. Indian Fairy Tales. Edited by Joseph Jacobs. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00. "Mr. Jacobs brings home to us in a clear and intelligible manner the enormous influence which 'Indian Fairy Tales' have had upon European literature of the kind. The present combination will be welcomed not alone by the little ones for whom it is specially combined, but also by children of larger growth and added years."--Daily Telegraph. Household Fairy Tales. By the Brothers Grimm. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00. "As a collection of fairy tales to delight children of all ages this work ranks second to none."--Daily Graphic. Fairy Tales and Stories. By Hans Christian Andersen. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00.

Hall. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00. "The most delightful book of fairy tales, taking form and contents together, ever presented to children. The whole collection is dramatic and humorous. A more desirable child's book has not been seen for many a day."--Daily News. Fairy Tales From the Far North. (Norwegian.) By P. C. Asbjornsen. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00. "If we were asked what present would make a child happiest at Christmastide we think we could with a clear conscience point to Mr. Jacobs' book.
