and twenty>eight ounces the weight.

LITERARY-Mrs. F. G. de Fontaine, has
written book for mothers and children,
that promises to become one of the most
popular c6uc2:iona! works of the day. It is |
appropriately entitled "WIsDoN TEETH FOR |
LITTLE PEOPLE" and embodies in the form |
of question and answer, just that kind OF !
information with which little folks should !
be supplied. 1t is not al easy matter to !
present learning in sugar-coated doses, but |
the authoress has most happily overcome !
this difficulty by preparing her volume in b
shape so attractive that, like Oliver Twist, !
the children will call for "Iore!' Parents .
and primary school teachers will do we'll to |
give the book en- examination. Published
by E. J. Hale s. Son, New York, and sold a.
