Growing Children, by Thomas William Nunn (Kogan Paul, Trench, and

Co.), is a little volume the title of which sufficiently indicates its purpose. It may be read with profit by mothers and others who have children in their charge.—With this may be mentioned A Manual of Hygiene, by J. White Wallis (same pub- lishers), and A Handbook for Mothers, by Jane H. Walker, M.D. (Longmans), a volume which seems likely to be of much use. On such a subject the advice, whether given orally or in this form, of a, female physician is obviously in place.
