should protect those who are less strong than he is himself; that a
man should never be rude to a woman; that truth must never be
sacrificed, and that the most cowardly thing that a man can do is to
flinch from his duty."--_Philadelphia Times._

boy or girl. * * * Mr. Sidney Lanier, in editing a boy's version of
Froissart, has not only opened to them a world of romantic and poetic
legend of the chivalric and heroic sort, but he has given them

WILLIAM O. STODDARD'S CAPITAL STORIES FOR BOYS.

The _Boston Globe_ says of Mr. Stoddard's books for boys:

"It was a bold attempt, in the face of the great success of
sensational literature for the young, to seek to bend boys to
self-reliance, duty and honor, by interesting them in the incidents
and rewards of manly boy-life at home and at school, and in its games
and sports; and a good deal of knowledge of boy character, of
sympathy with boy nature, and skill in reaching boy interest, and
regard, were required to accomplish his purpose. The plan was a noble
one, and its results are a triumph which shows that it is possible,
without thrilling adventure on the ocean or in Western wilds, in
exciting scenes of peril and death, or unnatural and bad characters
and situations, to secure the earnest attention of boys and their
approval."
