Excerpt from St. Nicholas, Vol. 32: An Illustrated Magazine for Young Folks; Part II, May, 1905, to October, 1905To know the trees, especially our fine Ameri can forest trees, is to possess friends whose character can always be depended upon, and whose intimate acquaintance brings continual and increasing pleasure.It is surprising how few people know even a verv little about our trees; and this is as true of country people as it is of those who live in cities. Perhaps it is because the scientists have frightened people with their formidable Latin names, but whatever the cause, the fact remains that few people can walk through the woods or parks and name correctly half a dozen trees.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from St. Nicholas, Vol. 14: An Illustrated Magazine for Young Folks; Part I., November, 1886 to April, 1887 How many' Of you know what an old home stead is? Those of you'who do will perhaps be quite indignant with me for asking such a ques tion; but in these days, when almost everybody is trying, as hard as he can, not_only to live in a handsomer house than that in which his grand father lived, but in a handsomer house than that in which he himself lived a year ago, it is not easy for children to have many associations with their temporary homes. Even those of you who know what an Old homestead is, probably think of it as some nice big Old house away off in the country, without any neighbors, Where peopl-e go for a month or two in summer for the sake of the Old associations. But I know where there is a Whole City of home steads. It a veritable city, with paved streets, gas - lamps, a_ Custom-house, 'and a mayor. But almost all of its citizens dwell in. Old home steads, the homes of their fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers. There are few really modern houses in the place, for, although there are plenty of Queen Anne Window-panes, they date back to the era of genuine Small windows, and every one who stays in Portsmouth, or who comes to Portsmouth, is far too anxious to dwell in a home stead to think of building a house Cut bias, as are 'the latest capric-es of architecture zit-newport or in New Jersey. Our very town itself has the generous air of being an old homestead, with its splendid old elms, its ministers who never think of staying less than twenty five years in its pulpits.
