Excerpt from Boys' Make-at-Home Things With a knife, a pencil, and some pieces of wood, all the other tools may be made. Bass wood is the easiest wood to handle because it is soft, and very close grained. If basswood can not be had, pine is the next best wood, and an old egg crate, which any grocer Will be glad to get rid of, will furnish you with enough Whittling material for a long time.

The book Hundreds of Things a Boy Can Make by an unknown author is an absolute gem of a book with the potential to keep a young man (or even a grown one, I now realise, browsing through the pages) entertained for weeks and weeks. With, as promised, literally hundreds of suggested activities, many of which will leave the reader with a memento and/or useful toy or tool. Being of older origins we'll forgive the author marketing Hundreds of Things a Boy Can Make to only a male audience; in this modern day however we can say that there is certainly plenty in this book that will be enjoyed by young (and not so young) ladies too. With contents ranging from the building of an aerial ropeway through fun experiments with iron to home made toboggans, this entertaining and certainly also educational book is well worth a browse - we know we shall!

NEW PRINT WITH PROFESSIONAL TYPE-SET IN CONTRAST TO SCANNED PRINTS OFFERED BY OTHERS Boys' Make-At-Home Things This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Excerpt from Young Folk's Handbook The Candle Lighters love to get letters from Uncle Nat, but of course they do not know very much about clubs yet. Nevertheless, they like to belong to something which their older brothers and sisters know about, so we enroll them in The After School Club, and, if they are too small to read, their mothers read Uncle N at's letters to them and tell his stories. The mothers give them the finger-plays and the songs and show them how to play the games and make with their little hands things concerning which Uncle Nat has sent their mothers the directions. The little ones will enjoy the pictures, but most of the stories must be read to them. Different names are given to the little circles that the Candle Lighters belong to from time to time. There is a famous Switch Engine group which has a charming letter-paper of its own and tells the little boys who are interested in locomotives and trains many things about them. There is a similar circle for little girls which shows them how to help in the home and to make things which little girls like to play with. Uncle Nat starts to write to his little friends about switch engines and paper dolls, and almost before they know it the children are teasing their mothers to ask Uncle Nat for more.
