NICHOLAS IT would be difficult to name a writer of later years who has done moreto delight the children with bright and chatty sunny-day storiesthan this estimable woman. While her mind has all the maturity,power, good judgment and strength of our best writers, her heartseems never to have grown out of the happy realm of childhood. Itis for them that she thinks, and it is for them that she writes hercharming stories when she is in her happiest moods. Not that she cannot write forgrown up people, for she has given them several books—very good ones too. Sheedited Hearth and Home at one time, and many a mother remembers her goodadvice in bright and cheerful editorials, on the art of home-making, and onthe care and training of children. She is also a humorous writer of considerableability. Miss Maloney on the Chinese Question is one of her most amusingsketches. Mary Mapes was born in New York city, in 1838. Prof
