A nice story for children is 'tDaisy Green,
 by Mrs. Susie A. Bisbes. All fond mothers 1 treasure up ia their memories the quaint say l ings and mischievons pranks of their little
 ones, but few of them ever get time to em l balm them in 9 book. Mrs. Bisbee has beer | fortunate enough, however, to have the op, | portunity and inclination, and in the stories | which make up tho Daisy Green collection she has made use of real material. Many
 mothers will smile in turning over it's pages
 to find things which they might have written | out of their experiences and memories, so | much are children alike. Some of the sto- l ries are very funny, and one cannot help thinking after closing the book that Daisy must have been a child of remarkably active l mind and vivid imagination to have said and
 done all the extraordinary things here chron- | icled. The frontispiece is genuine portrait of Daisy herself. Published by D. Lothrop
