Rome in Winter, and the Tuscan Hills in Summer. By

David Young, M.D. (EL K. Lewis.)—After some rather discouraging remarks about the hap-hazard way in which the Faculty recommend change of climate to invalids, Dr. Young proceeds to give detailed information, and implicitly detailed advice, as to residence in Rome, the upshot of what he says being that the city has a worse name than it deserves, and that a visitor who lives in the right place, manages himself properly, eats and drinks neither too much nor too little, and, not least important, does not exhaust himself with too mach sight- seeing, may do very well. A separate chapter is given to "Summer Quarters in Tuscany."
