The May Number opens with very seas
onabe poem by Rose Terry, entitled Poll Tad
pole. Poll is pictured as lying at ease in his
puddle, not dreaming that he will soon be-
come discontinued baby frog. There is a
capitol picture by Church, full of graphic
expresslon'of the comic effect Of a new-com-

Il cor Puck, the humor goes into Fairyland,
and Queen Nab challenges our respect for
her tactics in Furnishing Puck's audacity.

entertaining and instructive. For example,
how can more be said in as few word as the

Ny boys and girls, you are happier than
kings and queens.
There was once on time q prince, who, on
ascending the throne, had a bell raised in 4

The bell never rang during his lifetime.

quite as well freighted with good things in
art and literature as any previous number.

are supplemented by picttre which we
have left 20 the last at the most striking OF
all--"Ethan Alle2 at Tieonderoga,' by John
