THE EARTH'S CRUST.

A Handy Outline of Geology. With numerous Illustrations. Third Edition.
By DAVID PAGE, LL.D., F.R.S.E., F.G.S.,
Author of 'Text-Books of Geology and Physical Geography,' etc.

'Such a work as this was much wanted,--a work giving in clear and
intelligible outline the leading facts of the science, without
amplification or irksome details. It is admirable in arrangement, and
clear, easy, and at the same time forcible, in style. It will lead, we
hope, to the introduction of geology into many schools that have neither
time nor room for the study of large treatises.'--_The Museum._

II.

Being Hints to Henwives how to Rear and Manage Poultry Economically and
Profitably. Fourth Edition. By the Author of 'The Poultry Kalendar.'

poultry-yard a profitable as well as pleasant pursuit, and to popularize
poultry-rearing among the rural population generally.'--_The Globe._

HOW TO BECOME A SUCCESSFUL ENGINEER:

Being Hints to Youths intending to adopt the Profession. Third Edition.
By BERNARD STUART, Engineer.

'Parents and guardians, with youths under their charge destined for the
profession, as well as youths themselves, who intend to adopt it, will
do well to study and obey the plain curriculum in this little book. Its
doctrine will, we hesitate not to say, if practised, tend to fill the
ranks of the profession with men conscious of the heavy responsibilities
placed in their charge.'--_Practical Mechanic's Journal._

IV.
RATIONAL COOKERY:

Cookery made Practical and Economical, in connection with the Chemistry
of Food. Fifth Edition. By HARTELAW REID.

youthful bride in one of her most important domestic duties.'--_Glasgow
Citizen._

In a Series of Biographies, from the Beginning of the Christian Era till
the Present Time. Second Edition. By DAVID PRYDE, M.A.

since the Christian era by the biographic method, recommended by Mr.
Carlyle as the only proper method of teaching history. The style of the
book is clear, elegant, and terse. The biographies are well, and, for
