Comfort and Cleanliness. By Mrs. C. M. Buckton. (Longmans and

Co.)—This is a little book of practical advice to house- mothers about their work of superintending the daily routine of work, and the special, occasions of "spring cleaning" and the like. Advice, too, tending to economy is given about such matters as lighting fires, &c. It is a modest little volume, and likely to be very useful.
