With such a very rose bud of a magazine,
certain to expand into full bloom each
month and bear along its sweetness even to
the day Of its successor, children must be
kept In current OF pleasure and delightful
anticipation. Parents, too, aud all Adults
will here find subjects of interest and
worthy Of wisest thought.
The present number opens with a por
trait OF Martha Washington, after Gilbert
Stuart, engraved for 50. Nicholas. "Little
Lord Fnuntleroy," the story by Frances
Hodson Burnett, which has 80 captlvated all
young hearts, is continued with increasing
power and illustrations that nearly live
An attractive account and picture of the
Inauguration OF the first President is given
In "George Washington" continued, by
Horace L. Scudder, together with fne
portrait Of the great chief. The "Children's
Exhibition" by Charles Barnard, Is amply
illustrated. and must long hold the big eyed
little ones, MS also must "The Brownies at
Base Ball." by Palmer Cox, all nicely
rhymed and crowded with the quaint, com
ical figures Of the players. ''Old Time
Arms and Armor," e. 8. Brooks, is curious
and wonderful indeed. Its many illustra.
tions, showing the "brave knights" who
were so cowardly as to live In armor, while
their followers were unprotected, are
strange to contemplate. The engravlngs,
as usual, are excellent, the stories, the
poems, the chat with the youngsters.
Come, every one. happy children, come to
the banquet OF 81. Nicholas!

acumbersome tour through the room,
winds up with q ferocious butt against

waltzing on his back at short intervals.

Mrs. Pincin's Highwaymau.

Lewiston, Me-, letter; Mrs.
NJ Pincin of Monmouth. who has late
ly been visiting her sister in Auburn,
and is perhaps 40 years old. and of
fine physique, tells a story of a recent
attack upon her bv highway robber
while on her way from Augusta. Mrs.
Pincin started from Monmouth and
drove to Gardiner, where she left her
team, took freight train to Augusta,
and called at the pension Office there
for the money which was due her
about $50.
Are you not afraid that somebody
will rob you?" asked the folks at home
that morning before she started. The
road to Gardiner" they said, sis full
of dark places, and you are alone and
woman, and it is dangerous"
She thought there was no danger.
and declined to Inconvenience any one
else by the trip. She also declined to
take revolver. Her father, however,
took down the revolver, loaded it, put
it in snug place under the wagon-seat,
and told her to use it if occasion de-
manded. Mrs. Pincin hardley thought
of the revolver until she stood by the
desk in the pension Office counting her
money. At this time her eyes met those of
man who had been greedily watching
her as she counted it. She put the
money in her pocket and watched the
man as he turned on his heel and walk
ed to another part of the office. She
didn't see him in Augusta or on the
train to Gardiner.
Mrs. Pincin drove along until she had
passed Spears Corner. when she heard
a horse coming behind her as though
driven at full speed. She started her
own horse q little, but the coming
horse was faster than her own. She
looked around and at first glance was
startled, for she thought she recognized
the man whom she had seen at the
Office in Augusta. She kept on, driving
the horse in the middle of the road,

horse by the bride.
"What do you want?" said Mrs.
Pincin.

''Fo1k it over"
AS the highwayman turned to look
at his horse, and again at her, he sud-
denly noticed that he was looking into
the muzzle of a cooked revolver. There
was no trembling in the hand that held
it. either. There was look of resolu-
ton too, in her face, for, as she ex-
pressed it, she was not frightened,
''only just mad all the way through"
The man, with an oath, let his hand
drop from the bride and jumped into
his own buggy.
"Now, sir, you turn towards Gardi-

still covering him at every movement.
