.....being the doings of Plupy, Beany, Pewt, Puzzy, Whack, Bug, Skinny, Chick, Pop, Pile, and some of the girls. This children's book was published in 1905. From the Author: TO MY READERS "Were any of you born in New England, in the good old cate- chising, church-going, school-going, orderly times?" — Stowe. In bringing these sketches before the public in book form, I have been greatly influenced by the unexpected favor with which other books of mine, relating to the same characters, have been received, and by the many letters from those who professed a desire to know something more of Plupy, Beany, Pewt and the others. The books already issued were written from a boy's point of view. This book is from a man's point of view, but, I trust, a man who has not forgotten and never will forget a happy boyhood in a delightful of New England town. Many of the characters, who appear before the public under their true names and nicknames, and, I may also state, in their true light, are still living, and all are, strange as it may seem, my friends. With them I passed many of the happiest and most eventful days of my life, and by the recital of some of these events I hope to interest you. Henry A. Shute, Exeter, N. H, June I, 1905.

INTRODUCTION No science has advanced with more rapid steps than Geology } nor is any other science daily attracting such an increasing share of attention from all classes of society. Its popularity is due to its wonderful revelations and its practical bearing on the felt wants of the people. The history of the past would be unknown but for the unlooked-for discoveries which Geology has lately achieved, while the advantages arising from a correct knowledge of the internal structure of our earth are so apparent that no one dares to question its utility.A science so profoundly practical and so intensely interesting,— rewarding research with its sublimest truths,—will never lack students. And it becomes a matter of no secondary importance to provide for their approaching the subject through the proper avenue. The peculiar nature of the study, as well as the high place which it is taking in our Institutions of learning, demands for it better and increased appliances for illustration. For it is clear that in G-eology, not less than the other Natural Sciences, something more is needed than simple text-books or oral teaching. Visible, tangible objects can alone meet this necessity, and give the student clear and correct views. " I have satisfied myself long ago, (says Agassiz,) that the grand and most elementary principles of our science are better understood when illustrated from nature than when explained in a more abstract maner. In this way, each student is as it were, led to go himself over the road through which science itself has passed in its onward progress ; and, far from protracting his course, he soon finds that he is brought without preamble into the very sanctuary of science."Museums of nalural objects are becoming more and more a recognized necessity. G-eological cabinets are multiplying in numbers and increasing in size. In them the department of Palaeontology is securing a prominent position, now that G-eologists more fully appreciate the real value of fossil organisms, and regard them asportions of the great life-history of our globe—essential links in the chain of Zoological series—instead of mere " medals" for the identification of strata. Some of the greatest questions as to the past condition of the earth are to be answered only by the study of fossil in connection with living forms.
