  1. There are few forces more powerful in the shaping of character than those which spring from reading. Robinson Crusoe has sent thousands of boys to sea, and other books less wholesome have sent thousands to prison; many a youth has been inspired to noble aims and a useful life by the help of a good book. A distinguished scientist says that a single book which fell into his hands during boyhood gave him “a twist toward science.” 2. It is not a question whether our young people will read or not, for nearly all of them do read. The question is whether they shall read a helpful or a harmful literature, for every book and paper belongs to either one class or the other. There is but one way to keep out the harmful, and that is to supply the helpful. At a public conference on the subject of literature for young people one speaker said, “I find that when I keep the table in my own house well covered with good papers for young people my children have no desire for a low class of story-papers.” A shelf of good, interesting books for young people will save them from depraved taste in reading. 3. One difficulty in the way of supplying the home with good literature is that parents are too busy. To provide a pure and healthful course of reading, and with it the impulse to follow it, the Chautauqua Young Folks’ Reading Union has been established. This is an outgrowth of the Chautauqua movement, which aims to promote popular education for every grade and every age, and is the peculiar adaptation of the Chautauqua Course to young people. It takes in the main the same subjects as those of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle, and fits them to the needs of the young, so that while the older people are pursuing one course of reading, the boys and girls, from twelve years, and upward, may read in the same lines and on the same themes. The course includes history, science, literature, travel, household matters, “ways to do things,” etc., mainly in short articles, which can be easily read. It can be accomplished in less than two hours of each week, for as many years as the student chooses to follow it, for each year’s reading is complete in itself. 4. The Readings of the Chautauqua Young Folks’ Reading Union are of two kinds, Serial and in Books. The Serial Readings are contained in a monthly supplement to Wide Awake, a magazine for young people which stands at the head of its class in literature. This supplement is also published as a separate periodical, called the Chautauqua Young Folks’ Journal. The Book Readings consist generally of three standard books adapted for young people. With the course are furnished to enrolled members the “Outline Memoranda,” or questions for examination, not a severe test of knowledge of the Readings, but suggestive, and calling forth the thoughts and opinions of the reader. 5. The Course may be taken by individuals, each reading by himself, or by a number reading together and meeting in a Local Club or Circle. Such a Club may be organized by the teacher of a school among the scholars, and will furnish pleasant and elevating enjoyment, as well as training in composition, debating, observation, etc., by its exercises. The members may read papers of their own writing upon the subjects of the course, may present questions, may look at pictures of objects and places referred to, and may witness simple experiments in science, and may also have social recreation at its meetings. [For plans of organization and management of a Local Club, send for the handbook.] 6. All that is requisite for membership is to send name and address, with ten cents in postage stamps, to the Secretary, Miss Kate F. Kimball, Plainfield, N. J. Wide Awake contains much besides the readings—serial stories, short stories, illustrated articles, and poems—while the Chautauqua Young Folks’ Journal contains but little besides the readings. Besides one of the magazines, the three books cost $1.70. [For the Course of the coming year see next page.] 7. Every enrolled member receives free of cost a Certificate of Membership. It is an albertype, with a symbolic picture embodying the light-bearing spirit of the Union, and is suited to framing for the home. For each year’s reading a seal is given, which is to be affixed to the certificate. Thus the engraving will show by its seals the years of the member’s reading. ANNOUNCEMENT.The next Course of Readings will begin in the December number of Wide Awake and the Journal and run through 1888. Something of the value and interest may be gathered from the following prospectus. SEVENTH ANNUAL COURSE.REQUIRED READINGS (SERIAL).I. Dear Old Story-Tellers. By Oscar Fay Adams. A set of most delightful papers about certain old authors and certain old stories whose names and titles are constantly occurring in general literature. Whatever of importance and interest is known about these authors Mr. Adams has here gathered up; and a good idea is given of the work which has made them famous, valued and remembered. These “Readings” will be very helpful for all who wish to understand the allusions in literature to standard old stories and romances. Many portraits and illustrations. II. U. S. Military and Naval Schools. By Louis T. Peale. A good series for family reading, as both boys and girls are growing more and more interested in the way our Government conducts affairs, and these papers explain just what means are taken to train up a noble body of men to protect our country and maintain her interests and her rights by land and sea. While the series is of general interest to everybody, it will be especially hailed by boys who have dreams of entering the army or the navy; they will find here a complete manual of answers to all the questions they or their anxious friends can possibly ask as to what the boys must do for the Government, and what the Government does for the boys. Illustrations. III. Our Asiatic Cousins. By Mrs. A. H. Leonowens. Mrs. Leonowens lived a long time in the far East, an inmate of both palace and tent, and had opportunities of knowing face to face both royal potentates and the common people. She has written these articles especially for the members of the C. Y. F. R. U., and they are very interesting. Fully illustrated. IV. “Diamond Dust.” By Mrs. S. D. Power. Some chatty articles about precious stones, our native gems, and beautiful objects in the mineral world. V. Ways to do Things. All sorts. The first will be the “Way” to take care of dogs, by Louise Imogen Guiney. VI. Search-Questions in Roman History. By Oscar Fay Adams. Twenty questions each month. Book prizes for correct lists of answers. Particulars in both Wide Awake and the Journal. REQUIRED READINGS (BOOKS).A Family Flight Around Home. Part I. By Edward Everett Hale and Susan Hale. A new volume of this delightful series, describing the scenes and events of early New England history, etc. Illustrations. Poets’ Homes. By Arthur Gilman, and others. Charming pen and pencil pictures of the homes and haunts of the poets—and the poets themselves. Nelly Marlow in Washington. By Laura D. Nichols. Those who went with Nelly Marlow “Up Hill and Down Dale” will surely wish to go with her to Washington. Illustrations. PRICE LISTS.
Chautauqua Young Folks’ Annual.New members of the C. Y. F. R. U., and others, desiring in compact form the previous courses of Required Readings, may be glad to know that they are issued each year in one handsomely bound volume with the above title. Sent postpaid by the publishers, D. LOTHROP COMPANY, and by all booksellers, on receipt of $1.50 per volume.
D LOTHROP COMPANY. Publishers, Boston, U. S. A. FOOTNOTE:Quick CluesWide Awake, 1887. Volumes W and X. 4to, boards, 1.75 a volume—cloth, 2.25. “The files we have had bound are so popular as to be in danger of being literally read to pieces; and, knowing well that the new ones will meet the same treatment, we earnestly hope that the time will never come when it will be impossible to replace them; for they are a source of too much enjoyment and benefit to our young people to be allowed to get out of print—that would be a great misfortune.”—Extract from letter of the Librarian of the Morse Institute, Natick, Mass., ordering the first nineteen volumes of Wide Awake. One in a dozen families—no, not so many—one in a hundred eats good food. About as many read good books. And yet the proportion of good eating and reading is quite as high in this as in any country. The fact is some good food is a little dry. Good reading is never peppery. We are losing our capacity for enjoyment of both when we crave unwholesome stimulants. Wide Awake is one of those rare collections varied and bright enough to engage the common reader and good enough to lead the capable reader to higher pleasures and benefits. Volume W contains: a yachting story, by Charles R. Talbot; Peggy and her Family, by Margaret Sidney; Pamela’s Fortune, by Lucy C. Lillie; Pocahontas and Rolfe, by Mrs. Blathwayt; Turkish Childhood, by Hon. S. S. Cox; Some Nantucket Children, by Mrs. Macy; stories of early American warfare; no end of short stories and sketches, poems, engravings, etc. Volume X is equally full and fine. The two volumes make the year. The covers are bright and beautiful. Boys and Girls’ Annual 1888. 4to, cloth, 3.00. A big book of short stories and long; good many of both; and bright ones all of them, long or short. The secret is: they are out of Wide Awake. Pictures besides. Dame Heraldry. By F. S. W. Illustrated by nine full-page colored illustrations and numerous engravings. 8vo, cloth, 2.50. The writer, his children having an interest in heraldry, set himself at the task of telling them what he knew of it. Hence the book; which treats the whole subject formally, yet with a pleasant vacation air. Family Flight Series. By E. E. Hale and Susan Hale, 5 vols., 8vo, boards, each, 1.75; cloth, 2.25. Book journeys through the several countries with eyes and ears wide open, old eyes and young eyes and ears. The books are full of pictures, and fuller of knowledge not only of what is going on but what has gone on ever since book-making began, and fuller yet of brightness and interest. You see the old as old; but you see it; you see where it was and the marks it left. You see the new with eyes made sharper by knowledge of what has gone in the world. In other words these books amount to something like going through these places with a traveling companion who knows all about them and their histories. They are written and pictured for boys and girls; but there is nothing to hinder the old folks going along. Will you go?
One of the most effective means of exciting and satisfying zeal for knowledge of the world we have in books. Young Folks’ CyclopÆdia of Stories. 4to, cloth, 3.00. Containing in one large book the following stories, with many illustrations:
Margaret Sidney’s Illustrated Quartos.Golden West as Seen by the Ridgway Club. 4to, cloth, 2.25; boards, 1.75. A pictorial and talkative run from Boston to Monterey for health and pleasure and information. And what the jolly party sees from the car windows is only part of the treat. What the Seven Did, or the Doings of the Wordsworth Club. 4to, cloth, 2.25; boards, 1.75. The seven are little girl neighbors, the Wordsworth Club, which met once a week at their several homes to have a good time. Those good times are the book. The best of them had to do with the fathers and mothers and Widow Barker’s cow. Who Told it to Me. Square 8vo, boards, 1.25; cloth 1.75. Neighbor boys and girls growing up together, having their ins and outs, and ups and downs; and the old folks had their share in the young folks’ doings, as they ought. It was a jolly Pengannop. They did grow good men and women those days in New England. Polly and the Children. 4to, boards, 50 cents. The parrot has surprising adventures at the children’s party and wears a medal after the fire. FUN AND FANCY LIBRARY.3 VOLUMES, 12MO, CLOTH, EACH, 1.00. Bubbling Teapot. A Wonder Story by Lizzie W. Champney. A discontented little girl is the Bubbling Teapot of a sort of Japanese Arabian Night. She tries a great many kinds of life and concludes that the nicest life, after all, is that of a little American girl. It is a dream-story. In No-Man’s Land. A Wonder Story by E. S. Brooks. A Dream-story as droll as Alice in Wonderland. Not like Alice; and yet can there be two sorts of dream-nonsense so witty and wild, so mixed up and yet not muddy a whit? The plays on nursery rhymes are enough to make the fortune of almost a dull book. And “there isn’t a dull line in it.” Dilly and the Captain. By Margaret Sidney. A bicycle-tricycle story of pioneers and explorers in search of the place where children should be seen and heard too. A very jolly story. Nelly Marlow in Washington. By Laura D. Nichols. Square, 8vo, boards, $1.25; cloth, $1.50. Nelly sees the Capitol and the Capital. There are wonderful things to be seen there; too many to think of out of the book. It’s a story besides. Nelly brings up in the Adirondacks before her play-time is over. Overhead: or what Harry and Nelly discovered in the heavens. By Annie Moore and Laura D. Nichols. Introduction by Leonard Waldo, of Harvard College Observatory. Square 8vo, boards, 1.25; cloth, 1.50. A trip to the moon, Saturn, the sun, and various other stations, in great big letters and pictures, with a little bit of easy astronomy sprinkled in. Underfoot, or what Harry and Nelly learned of the earth’s treasures. By Laura D. Nichols. Square 8vo, boards, 1.25; cloth, 1.50. Peeps at the world we live on and into it here and there where the holes are. Up Hill and Down Dale. By Laura D. Nichols. Square 8vo, boards, 1.25; cloth, 1.50. Nelly leaves Harry at business and goes to the country. What she sees there is in the book, and a great many things besides. Cats’ Arabian Nights. By Abby Morton Diaz. 8vo, boards, 1.25. The wonderful cat story of cat stories told by Pussyanita that saved the lives of all the cats, the funniest, wittiest story that ever was [so says Pussyanita]; and that is why it is wonderful. King Grimalkum must have been a credulous fellow; but nobody blames him for losing his wits to such a teller of cat stories. Fireside Chronicles, or the Family Story-Teller. By Abby Morton Diaz. Fifteen different chronicles, every one of them funnier than the last one; and five times as many pictures of what they’re about. A great deal of wisdom in with the fun. Wonder Stories. 3 volumes, 12mo, cloth, each 1.50. Wonder Stories of History. Historical incidents told in short stories by several writers. Wonder Stories of Science. Really how twenty-one different things are made in the world. By several writers. Wonder Stories of Travel.

Bound Volumes of Two Illustrated Magazines.Our Little Men and Women for 1887. 4to, 74 full-page illustrations, cloth, 2.00; boards, 1.50. Nearly 300 pages of pictures and stories, sketches, lessons, and entertainments easy to read and understand, for children six to eight years old. As bright as a book can be, and as full of help towards wholesome progress in learning, growth of mind and the formation of good habits and taste in reading. The cover is daintily beautiful. The Pansy for 1887. 4to, cloth, 1.75; boards, 1.25. More than 400 pages of reading and pictures for children of eight to fifteen years in various lines of interest. There are sketches of home and foreign life, religious instruction, biography, history, fiction, anecdote, letter-writing. The editor is the author of the Pansy books, which means that the drift of The Pansy is all one way. The cover is almost made of pansies, purple and gold, with a pair of happy children on a grassy bank, and a flock of butterflies. Real Fairy Folks. By Lucy Rider Meyer, A.M. Illustrated, 12mo, cloth, $1.50. A play-excursion into chemistry, none the less serious because it is play, and none the less play because it is serious. We quote from the author’s word to parents: “This book is true to chemical fact and principle. It is an effort to make them love the beautiful science of chemistry and to lift their thoughts to the One who holds in His hand the atoms as securely as He holds the worlds.” Nevertheless it is a book of diversion, a story-book, a fairy story-book. A queer combination, but we believe successful. We much mistake if it is not splendidly successful. Story Book of Science. By Lydia Hoyt Farmer. Illustrated, 12mo, cloth, $1.50. This also is fact and fiction in science; stories made upon what goes on in the world, the scientific and practical world. Glass-making is in it; and silk; a great many insects; snow; wind; the seven modern wonders; birds; animals; tea, coffee, pepper, potatoes; what not? There are subjects enough, and learning enough; and there is fun in finding out how the world is put together. Look-About Club. By Mary E. Bamford. 4to, cloth, 1.50. The Club is a family given to study of animals. Under the guise of play the family learns about spiders and butterflies, chickens and rabbits, fishes and frogs, the folks in the brook, the folks on the ground and the folks in the air, which includes grasshoppers and beetles. There is a great deal to know about our neighbors, worth knowing, too; and the surest way to begin learning is to like it. That is why such books as this are made, to make young people like the beginnings of learning. Little Polly Blatchley. By Frances C. Sparhawk. 4to, boards, 1.00. Delightful stories out of little Polly’s life. Polly is what elderly people call an “old” little girl. She is continually thinking of things that little people are apt to skip; and she keeps her thoughts to herself so wisely and lets them out so in the nick of time, she delights her good papa and mamma in the book and the little girl who reads it. It is a rare book for pleasure and wholesome suggestion. Playfellows and Their Pets. 4to, boards, 1.00. Short stories about children, animals and birds, with a great many pictures. Not a page but is full of entertainment, instruction and means of growth for pretty good readers of six or eight or ten—Do little folks go by ages nowadays? After Play Stories for the Little Ones. 4to, boards, 1.00. Beginning stories for little readers, or to be read to people too little to read for themselves. There is one about the Puzzled Baby, which begins in this way: “I am a baby. But I don’t want you to think I am one of these little bits of things who know nothing at all. I am an old baby. I am almost ten months old! “I have a cousin who is only nine weeks old. The little goose don’t know how to get his toes in his mouth!” Some Things Abroad. By Alexander McKenzie, D. D. 12mo, cloth, $1.50. A chatty going over the events of day after day of a journey through northern and southern Europe into Asia, the Holy Land especially. Dr. McKenzie’s name is enough in New England. Outside also. Russian Novelists. From the French of M. de VogÜÉ by Jane Loring Edmands. 12mo, cloth, $1.50. An exposition of life and feeling in Russia through an examination of the most characteristic Russian writers; also a critical and general estimate of current Russian literature. Life Among the Germans. By Emma Louise Parry. 12mo, cloth, $1.50. A very near and intimate view of German home and social life, with a sympathetic account of the Luther Centennial. A book of rare fullness and delicacy. Common Sense Science. By Grant Allen. 12mo, cloth, $1.50. Practical applications of many results of recent advances in science. Not a schoolbook; a means of intelligence suited to busy people. Royal Girls and Royal Courts. By M. E. W. Sherwood. 12mo, cloth, $1.25. A book of twelve chapters on nearly as many European courts with special regard to the local etiquette, by a peculiarly competent person. Souvenirs of My Time. By Jessie Benton FrÉmont. 12mo, cloth, $1.50. Reminiscences of a political-social career of rare distinction in a republican country told with a freshness and readiness rare in any country. American Authors for Young Folks. By Amanda B. Harris. 12mo, cloth, $1.00. Not exhaustive essays upon but rather clues to our writers who need not be named for their eminence and whom not to know is not to know the American part in English letters. Dorothy Thorn of Thornton. By Julian Warth. 12 mo., $1.25. The chemist’s dainty daughter draws the old dreamer out of his laboratory and the young dreamer out of his yacht, the one as neatly as the other. There is a factory in the story, with a hard-headed business man for a manager and a gentleman for owner. There is a community of working men; their lives and feelings and interests, also their schemes and plans. A minister; two of them, one a woman; one to society, one to the working people. A strike, a mob, a murder, a settlement. The manufacturer wins, and so do the workmen. So does the chemist’s daughter, as indeed she deserves. Gladys. A Romance. By Mary G. Darling. 12mo, $1.25. A story of love—the ever-new old story. The bright and beautiful daughter of a fond old man who has nothing to do but delight in her pleasure, and watch her numerous lovers, spends her first summer after school-days at Bar Harbor. Too good and true to be spoiled by pursuit, she, nevertheless, but slowly learns to distinguish conjugal love. Her fortune takes her more or less blindly through the school of experience—a school that tempers not its exactions. There are interesting stories within the larger story, and interesting fragments of other lives than the two. We part from several of the personages unwillingly. After School Days. By Christina Goodwin. 12mo, cloth, 1.00. A tale: quite a new sort of history. School-days over, four girl friends return to their homes and life begins. As often happens, life is not as they picture it. What it is for the four and how they severally meet it—that is the story. For a Girl’s Room. 12mo, cloth, 1.00. A practical help for a girl to surround herself with pleasant things with little expense. The book is mainly filled with ways to exercise taste on waste or picked-up things for use with an eye to decoration as well. A friendly sort of a book to fill odd minutes whether at home or out, for herself or another. By no means on “fancy work”—not all work—Chapter XXI is how to tame birds, and XXV is what to do in emergencies. GO TELL MOTHER.

Royal Girls. By M. E. W. Sherwood. Ill. Boston: D. Lothrop Company. Price $1.25. One thing readers will learn from this volume by Mrs. Sherwood, and that is that girls who happen to be born princesses are very much like those who are born in ordinary households, and that human nature is pretty much the same in a palace as it is in an American farmhouse. But they will learn, too, that in most royal families the daughters are subjected to a course of discipline and training more severe and exacting than ever fell to the lot of an American girl. They are obliged to study early and late; they must have not only a thorough knowledge of the languages, of music and of court etiquette, but also of the politics of their own and other governments; they must know something of statecraft and of diplomacy, for no princess knows what station she may be some time called on to fill. No American girl need envy them, says Mrs. Sherwood. “They are in chains, all of them. They must be careful what they say, do, think even. With royal girls, what interrupted destinies, what cruel disappointments, what unhappy marriages, what a contrast between the desire and fulfilment do we constantly see.” There are certain things in which Mrs. Sherwood thinks they might serve as models to American girls, with whom she frequently compares them. The volume contains sketches of the royal girls of Italy, of Spain, of Denmark, of Russia, of England and of Germany, and two chapters are devoted to “Carmen Sylva,” the queen of Roumania and the empress of Austria. The author describes very entertainingly the home life of some of these girls, and the rules of etiquette to which they are obliged to conform. The volume is well illustrated with portraits. What People Live By. By Count Leo Tolstoi. Translated by Mrs. Aline Delano. Boston: D. Lothrop Company. Price $1.00. A remarkable little story by the distinguished Russian writer, Count Tolstoi, has been translated by Mrs. Aline Delano, and cannot fail to impress the reader more strongly than ever with the wonderful power of the author in dealing with religious or psychological subjects. It was written for a distinct purpose; to show, in the words of the title, “What People Live By.” Nothing can be more severely simple than the story, which is thus summed up. “I have learned,” says Tolstoi, “that man lives not by care for himself, but by love.... I know that God has given life to men, and wishes them to live. Now I know another truth: the truth that God does not wish man to live apart; therefore He has not revealed to them what each needs for himself. He wishes them to live together, and therefore reveals to each the others’ wants.” The translation seems to be very close to the original. THE BEST TOY EVER INVENTED. FUN! FUN!! FUN!!!
