In every detail of illustration and manufacture these editions
are made as if these books were being published for the
first time for young folks. This attempt to put the juvenile
classics in a form which on its looks will attract children,
is meeting with widespread support from the public and
librarians.
The text is not abridged.
Mr. Smith's pictures need no commendation, but he seems to have treated these stories with unusual skill and sympathy.

Of Ulysses and the Men of Old. By various authors,
including Nathaniel Hawthorne. Illustrated.
Special library binding. $1.35 net.
The Greek and Roman mythological heroes whose stories
