By DOROTHY BROOKS. Large type. Illus. Price, Boards, 30 cents; Cloth, 40 cents.

It is both natural and fitting that the boys and girls of America should be interested and familiar with the legends that have woven so much of poetry and romance about the life of the Red And when these fanciful tales are presented as a part of the life history of the little Red children they touch the kindred love of the marvelous in the civilized children of to-day with a peculiar closeness. All barriers of race and centuries of time fade away and the red and white children clasp hands in joy and delight in their mutual love of Nature's wonder-tales.

T is time for teachers to think of what they desire to present their pupils at Christmas time and to arrange for it. There is certainly nothing more appropriate and attractive for this purpose than the School Souvenirs published by us. We have furnished them to more than 20,000 schools, and many teachers have sent second and third orders for different occasions. They are equally appropriate

For Christmas, for Close of School, for Special Anniversaries,

Or for any occasion when a Gift or Souvenir is desired. Both teacher and pupil enjoy and appreciate them. Containing as they do the name of the school, place, date, name of teacher and all the pupils, they constitute a real Souvenir, always kept and highly prized.

The School Souvenirs

Consist of two cards tied together with silk cord. On the face of first is printed the name of school, town, teacher, date, officers, etc., as may be desired, in the brightest gold letters, and on the second the names of the pupils. Heavy embossed cards are used and the Souvenirs are gotten out in a highly artistic manner. Where two cards are not sufficient, additional cards are attached so as to accommodate all the names of the pupils without crowding.

Remember we now furnish Three Styles of Souvenirs, all of the same size and with the names of teacher, officers and pupils, differing only in the style of the outside card. Notice the price of each and mention the one wanted in your order. These three are called

Plain Souvenirs, Photograph Souvenirs, and Flag Souvenirs.

The Photograph Souvenir has become very popular in the brief time we have advertised it. It consists in copying and transferring to the title card of the Souvenir the photograph of the teacher, the school house, some favorite author or popular hero. Those ordering Souvenirs with photograph should send a cabinetsized photograph from which to copy, and make extra remittance of 25 per cent. of the regular price for he number of Souvenirs required. There will be no change in the photograph, and the picture on Souvenir will be an exact copy of original, but reduced in size. Photographs have always been considered a most appropriate gift for close of school, but they could not often be used on account of the great expense, especially where the school is large. Now that you can procure good photographs in connection with the most appropriate gifts ever devised for presentation to pupils for a mere trifle, none should fail to take advantage of the opportunity. Much more satisfactory results can be given if a cabinet-sized bust or half length picture is sent than if a full-length or smaller card size. Remember that we furnish Souvenirs either with or without photographs Number to Order. Order at least as many as there are officers, teachers and pupils to be printed upon them, and as many more as you wish. State definitely the number you wish, and send, plainly written, the matter you desire printed on the face of first card, together with the names of pupils. Be sure that names are correctly spelled and plainly written. In proper names unusual care is always necessary. When to Order. Orders can usually be filled within three days of the time they are received, but should be sent in a couple of weeks in advance, if possible, so as to avoid any possible delay. Photo

graphic orders will take more time to execute than those without.

Sample Souvenirs: One Souvenir of each kind sent to any address on receipt of 2 cent stamp.

A School Library is an Invaluable Aid to Discipline.

The "HAWTHORNE LIBRARY CERTIFICATES" which we send you (FREE), are to be placed in the hands of your pupils, each one acting as a representative in obtaining subscriptions for his school library. Some pupils will dispose of only two or three, while others will sell as many as ten or fifteen shares. One teacher writes us that nearly the entire amount ($10.00) was raised in two hours, by this method, but everyone, of course, cannot expect as excellent results as this; the average time being from four to ten days.

The subscriber is given a certificate of his subscription, and his name is written in the blank space for that purpose, and the certificate is then signed by the pupil.

The work has a good effect on the pupil, making him feel that he is an important factor in securing a library for his school, thereby stimulating his interest in the matter.

WE WILL CHEERFULLY SEND CIRCULARS, certificates and catalogue, free of charge, to any teacher who would like to try this method of securing money to purchase one of our famous 30 volume School Libraries. Address EDUCATIONAL PUBLISHING COMPANY,
