Pictures from Myths Every child Should Know edited by Hamilton Wright Mabie and illustrated and decorated by Mary Hamilton Frye. My copy is dated 1922, but says clearly Copyright 1905, 1914 by Doubleday, Page & Company. It was printed in the USA and I think is in the public domain.

There is a Project Gutenberg text version of another edition of this book, but it is not the same.
