AUNT MARY.

We place before the C. Y. P. R. U. this week a variety of instructive

and entertaining articles. The sketch of Charlotte Corday, from the pen

of one of our most able American historians, will recall the lesson

taught by the terrible French Revolution; a "Dangerous Plaything" will

show the boys and girls what strong measures are taken in our large

cities to check the ravages made by fire; and "Lawn Tennis" will give

them an idea of another new device in the way of an out-door game for

developing weak muscles and cultivating health and strength. As for the

article on our second page, entitled "Luck," we trust that it is going

to do a great deal toward inducing our young readers to cast that stupid

word out of their vocabulary.
