Punch and Judy. By Frederic E. Weatherley. Illustrated by Patty
Townsend. (Marcus Ward and Co.)—The pictures in this book are charming,—so quaint, so humorous, and so prettily coloured. And good 88 the "Punch " pictures are, the " card " pictures in Meg's dreams are almost better. The tale, too, is pretty. Punch is the reprobate that we know him to be; but we find that he has a heart-, too, when he and Judy wander over the snow to find the lost "Baby." There is a human element, too, in the story, which has a pathos of its own.
