l they war any more."
Yes; the more they learn and keep the law of the Lord, the less there
will be of those wars. To heed the true law of the Lord will do more for
peace and oneness than all the cleverness in book-learning, or all the
skilful manufactures in the world.

=BAILEY. LESSONS WITH PLANTS.= Suggestions for
Seeing and Interpreting Some of the Common Forms
of Vegetation. By L. H. Bailey. 12mo. Illustrated.
xxxi + 491 pages.
This volume is the outgrowth of "observation lessons." The book is based
upon the idea that the proper way to begin the study of plants is by
means of plants instead of formal ideals or definitions. Instead of a
definition as a model telling what is to be seen, the plant shows what
there is to be seen, and the definition follows.

=BLACK. THE PRACTICE OF SELF-CULTURE.= By Hugh
Black. 12mo. vii + 262 pages.
Nine essays on culture considered in its broadest sense. The title is

Sherman, Private, Co. D, 21st Infantry. Edited by
Stephen Bonsal. 12mo. xi + 316 pages.
These letters throw much light on our recent history. The story of our
"Expansion" is well told, and the problems which are its outgrowth are
treated with clearness and insight.
