The Alphabet of Athletics. By Eustace Miles. (Routledge and Sons.
ls.)—This is a volume in the " Fitness Series," edited, and, it seems, largely written, by Mr. Miles. It is illustrated with a number of diagrams, which represent the right, and occa- sionally the wrong, attitudes for various actions. The figures are in skeleton form, very likely for a sufficient reason, though we might more easily recognise what we are accustomed to see. The directions, as far as we are able to judge, appear to be sensible, and are certainly clear.
