THere is nothing more thrilling to be found in the wildest pages of romance; parents can safely place all these books in their children's hands, for they relate FACTS, not Fancies. Reading such books as the following will wean youthful readers from pernicious literature, and improve their understanding and their taste. DeWitt's "Good Book" Series is printed from new and elegant faced type, on very fine strong paper, in the neatest style." |
