The Children's Theater in New York is the most successful example, but every settlement in which dramatics have been systematically fostered can also testify to a surprisingly quick response to this form of art on the part of young people.

Bonaparte rose up as my rival; and cheerfully did I accept him for such, in the council and in the field. But now he is my rival in my family. He looks defiance at me through my children's eyes. It is too much. God give me patience!" Monsieur Pascal did not speak; for what could he say? Pongaudin was no longer safe, as head-quarters for the Commander-in-chief, his family, and guests.

The children's laughter sounded merrily in the clear cold air; Bridget plunged about like a little porpoise in the water, and Rosalys quite forgot that she had attained the dignity of her teens. But a bell ringing suddenly some little way off caught their ears. 'That's papa ringing, said Randolph. 'He said he'd have the big dinner-bell rung when it was time for me to go in.

What limits to the glory and happiness of our native land, if the Creator should in His mercy have placed in the heart of this Royal Woman the rudiments of wisdom and mercy; and if, giving them time to expand, and to bless our children's children with her goodness, He should grant to her a long sojourning upon earth, and leave her to reign over us till she is well stricken in years?

The Auld Lichts loved their minister, but they saw even more clearly than himself the necessity for his humiliation.

A children's librarian may well be grateful for the memory of this far-seeing friend of children, who held the belief that books may be more than amusement, and that the civic virtues can be nourished by and in a "juvenile library."

A mother ought not to leave off her children's winter clothing until the spring be far advanced: it is far better to be on the safe side, and to allow the winter clothes to be worn until the end of May. The old adage is very good, and should be borne in mind: "Button to chin Till May be in; Ne'er cast a clout Till May be out."
