of any poison which children may have swallowed in
the way of sham-adventurous stories and wildly

TROWBRIDGE has the power of making an instructive
story absorbing in its interest, and of covering a
moral so that it is easy to take."--_Christian
Intelligencer._

one of the most entertaining and at the same time one of the most
instructive of living writers of juvenile fiction. In his younger days a
teacher by profession, he has made boys and their idiosyncrasies the
