Books
For Children

For the past two years we
have been cooperating with
Miss Houston, of the Mexico
Public Library to raise the
standard of children's books
here and consequently have
been buying ONLY THE BEST
BOOKS FOR LITTLE FOLKS.
The books we carry are APP
proved by Clara W. Hunt, supt.,
of the Children's department of
the Brooklyn Public Library.
She says of picture books:
"Babies a year old are not too
young to enjoy pictures. Indeed
the child's taste for good books
should begin in babyhood. Do
not allow little children to see
ugly and vulgar pictures. Even
the harmless but empty books
are a waste of time and money.
Buy the positively good, among
which are the following"
For Children Up to 10 Years
Mother goose and other Rhymes
and Jingles. Peter Rabbit, Peter
Grimms Fairy Tales, Anderson's
Fairy tales, Sunny Rhymes and
other balanced books. Steven
sons Child's Garden of Verse,
Bed Time Stories, Sandman
Stories, Kipling's Just So" Stor-
les, His Jungle Book, Albert
Bigelow Paine's books.
Hundreds of other good books for
older children. Let US help you
