And every spring I watch the nest-building from my window with great satisfaction. O'b. Stockton, Cal. Dear St. Nicholas: I am ever so glad that you printed my letter, and the picture of my house, in the January number of the St. Nicholas, and I write this to tell you my thanks. On New Year's day my friend Fannie and I received calls at my house; we had sixteen callers. We gave ihem coffee, candy, popcorn, macaroons, raisins, oranges and apples. We had a real nice time.--Your friend, Nellie Littlehalk. To C. Lindslev, Jr.--An article about the house-fly will appear in St. Nicholas before very long, and when it does, you will be able to find in it the answer to your question. The illustrated article about " Litde Housemaids" in this number of St. Nicholas was prepared after repeated visits to the so-called Kitchen-Garden classes of New York both by the author and the artist. We think all our boys and girls--and their parents, too--will be entertained by the account of this novel school; and we shall be glad if some of our older readers are prompted to take a practical interest in similar work. Every class of twenty-four scholars at the Kitchen-Garden has four teachers, and a dozen or more classes in New York alone are taught by about fifty volunteers, who have been trained by Miss Huntington herself. There is plenty of room for more schools, and it is a good work for young girls to do, if they have leisure time and fit qualifications at command. The position of servant-girl becomes a grade of honor when once its duties are faithfully learned and cheerfully performed, and it is delightful to think of poor little street waifs being thus led to know the dignity of household service, and helped to enjoy its...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from St. Nicholas, Vol. 15: An Illustrated Magazine for Young Folks; Part I, November, 1887, to April, 1888 In the Department or the Meuse, in northwestern France, is the little farming village of Damvillers, a mere handful of cottages dropped in the inside of rolling plains which are dotted with vineyards and ruled off by straight rows of slender poplars. The well in the village square is the morning meeting-place of women who clatter over live stones in their wooden shoes to fill their water pails. Presently you may see the men leaving their cottage doors on their way to work among the vines or in the potato-fields outside the village. Between their fields and their cottages they spend their lives. These peasants do not go away from home. They care most for the prospects of their crops. Their only time of merrymaking is the village fete. They arc interested in what they can see, and understand, and handle. But, strangely enough, among them grew up a peasant, one of themselves, whose eyes were keen enough to see that this out-of-door life was beautiful; that these figures laboring in the fields were endowed with a nobility of their own, and that the orchards and vineyards and grassy pastures of Damvillers were pictures in themselves. I suppose that no other of the peasants ever thought whether their life was beautiful or not. They were obliged to work hard, and when the work was done, they were hungry and tired, and that was all. Now. this young peasant, who was never so hungry or tired as to forget the beauty of the scenes around him. lived exactly like the others. He was born, it is now thirty-seven years since, in a little stone cottage with an odd thatched roof, which stands at the corner of the village square. There are only four rooms in this cottage, and of these rooms the pleasantest was the large kitchen where his father and grandfather used to sit before a great open fire-place in which hung a generous put filled with bubbling for an few, or the "soup of black beans," for which his mother was famous, jules Bastsen, the father, had been a cooper. making casks for the wine from the vineyards, but by and by he saved money enough to buy a vineyard for himself. Grandfather Lepage. too. was of a thrifty disposition, and flora the earnings of his hard work he had saved a little sum of which he made good use. as we shall see. Behind the cottage and the barn was a delightful garden, where the young Jules and his brother Emile used to play among rows of hollyhocks and poppies, and under the shade of some old apple-trees. Many years afterward this playground became famous, as I shall tell you. As the peasant bay Jules grew up. his mornings were no longer spent in play, but he trudged off after his father to work among the vines. Every one worked at Damvillers. and to Jules Bostien saw about him every day the men and women moving up and down the rows of vines, bending over the lulls of potatoes, spreading hay in the fields or resling at noon, and the boys and girls tending the cows in the pastures. There was a sensitive brain behind his eyes, and something there was touched by these things. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from St. Nicholas, Vol. 11: An Illustrated Magazine for Young Folks; Part 1., November, 1883, to April, 1884 IT was the 25th of November, 1783 - a brill iant day, clear, crisp, and invigorating, with just enough of frosty air to flush the eager cheeks and nip the inquisitive noses of every boy and girl in the excited crowd that filled the Bowery lane from Harlem to the barriers, and pressed fast upon the heels of General Knox's advance detach ment of Continental troops marching to the posi tion assigned them, near the tea-water pump. _ar. Some points the crowd was especially pushing and persistent, and Mistress Dolly Duane was decidedly uncomfortable. For little Dolly detested crowds, as, in fact, she detested everything that interfered with the comfort of a certain dainty little maiden of thirteen. And she was just on the point of ex pressing to her cousin, young Edward Livingstone, her regret that they had not staid to witness the procession from the tumble-down gate-way of the Duane country-house, near the King's Bridge road, when, out from the crowd, came the sound of a child's voice, shrill and complaining. Keep off, you big, bad man, it said; keep off and let me pass. How dare you crowd me so, you wicked rebels?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from St. Nicholas, Vol. 14: An Illustrated Magazine for Young Folks; Part I., November, 1886 to April, 1887 How many' Of you know what an old home stead is? Those of you'who do will perhaps be quite indignant with me for asking such a ques tion; but in these days, when almost everybody is trying, as hard as he can, not_only to live in a handsomer house than that in which his grand father lived, but in a handsomer house than that in which he himself lived a year ago, it is not easy for children to have many associations with their temporary homes. Even those of you who know what an Old homestead is, probably think of it as some nice big Old house away off in the country, without any neighbors, Where peopl-e go for a month or two in summer for the sake of the Old associations. But I know where there is a Whole City of home steads. It a veritable city, with paved streets, gas - lamps, a_ Custom-house, 'and a mayor. But almost all of its citizens dwell in. Old home steads, the homes of their fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers. There are few really modern houses in the place, for, although there are plenty of Queen Anne Window-panes, they date back to the era of genuine Small windows, and every one who stays in Portsmouth, or who comes to Portsmouth, is far too anxious to dwell in a home stead to think of building a house Cut bias, as are 'the latest capric-es of architecture zit-newport or in New Jersey. Our very town itself has the generous air of being an old homestead, with its splendid old elms, its ministers who never think of staying less than twenty five years in its pulpits.
