       In connection with this subject of Juvenile Literature�察�I would draw 

attention     to  Messrs。     Constable's     ;Library    of   Historical    Novels    and 

Romances;so   admirably   edited   by   Mr。   G。   Laurence   Gomme。   Readers 

��old   as   well   as   young��   are   still   further   indebted   to   Mr。   Gomme   for   his 

well´arranged series of extracts taken from Romantic Literature in the four 

volumes   entitled�察   �The   King's   Story   Book�察─   �The   Queen's   Story   Book�察─�

which   indirect   references   to   our   subject   may   be   traced。   Moreover�察  �in
