Dont be afraid, said Dodo, I can hold them any day Sweet flowersaround, The birds sang soft and low, While, in the west, the setting sun Set all the sky aglow.

The beautiful engraving which forms the frontispiece of the pres-ent number, is a copy of a painting made more than three hundredyears ago by the great painter, Leonardo da Vinci. An interestingaccount of his life will be given to our readers in the course of theseries of articles to be begun next month, entitled Stories of Artand Artists. It is enough to say here, therefore, that he was oneof the greatest men of all time, being not only a great painter, butalso a distinguished sculptor, architect, engineer, and man of science. The picture from which our frontispiece was made, representingthe Madonna receiving a lily from the hand of the infant Jesus, is oneof Da Vincis best, and was painted in his later yeaft. The supply of good things prepared for this Christmas numberwas so great that, in order to make room, it was decided to print noillustrations to either of the serial stories in this special issue, beyondthe little diagrams given.
