Our Teeth and Our Health. By H. U. Olver. (T.

Murby and Co. is. net.)—This little book by an eminent dental surgeon aims at calling the attention of the general public to "the enormous, the vital necessity of maintaining the health of the mouth if the health of the body is to be considered." Sir William Osler has assured us that "there is not one single thing more important in the whole range of Hygiene than Hygiene of the Mouth." Those who will take the trouble to read Mr. Olver's very sensible book will realize the importance of periodical visits to a really trustworthy dentist.
