"For children, what could be better as a gift than a copy of Mrs.
Dodge's 'Hans Brinker; or, the Silver Skates,' of which we are now
given a new and beautiful edition? This is one of the most charming
of juvenile stories, dealing with fresh scenes and a strange life, and
told with sweet simplicity and great beauty."--_Congregationalist._
"'Hans Brinker' is a charming domestic story, which is addressed,
indeed, to young people, but which may be read with pleasure and
profit by their elders. * * The lessons inculcated, are elevated in
tone, and are in the action of the story and the feelings and
aspirations of the actors."--_The Atlantic Monthly._
"This book has been a great favorite, not only in America but in
other lands. The author has every reason to be gratified at the
success and constant popularity of this charming narrative, which
teaches so finely the noblest lessons of character and life, while
picturing the customs and scenes of Holland."--_Boston Advertiser._

RHYMES AND JINGLES.
By Mrs. MARY MAPES DODGE,
_Editor of "St. Nicholas."_
Profusely illustrated.
One vol. small quarto, extra cloth, a new edition $1.50
There are in this collection nonsense rhymes and verses of the soundest
sense; there are brief bits of wisdom for little folks, and stories in
verse for those who are older, while some of the so-called rhymes include
verses which are as truly poetical as anything in the language.
Some of these poems have been pronounced "without rivals in our
language." In the new edition now published, Mrs. Dodge has made a
careful revision of the work. Every child should have a copy of these
witty and beautiful verses.
