MISCELLANEOUS. — The Dog : its External and Internal Organisation,

edited by Alexander C. Piesse (George Philip and Son, 3s. 6d. net), contains a description of the dog generically and of the principal varieties, sporting and non-sporting, with an anatomical description by William S. Furneanx.—Mr Pickwick's Kent, by Hammond Hall (Horace Marshall and Co.), may fairly claim to be a contribution to literature as well as a guide-book. It has been put together with no little pains, and the identifications will be found interesting. No lover of "Pickwick" should fail to look at it.—Another useful guide is Kensington Palace, by Ernest Law (G. Bell and Sons).
