both mental and physical, are remarkably amenable
to a rightly directed course of the new suggestion treatment,
supplemented by other natural means.

The narrowness of view that too often characterises the specialist is
entirely absent from this book. It is throughout thoroughly broad,
refreshingly sensible and profoundly convincing.

_The Cottage Farm Month by Month_ (illustrated with original
photographs). By F.E. Green. Cloth, 1s. net (postage 2d.). C.W.
Daniel, Ltd., 3 Tudor Street, London, E.C.

Here is a book of immediate social interest, of great practical value,
and of uncommon literary quality.

In the course of twelve chapters, bearing the titles of the months of
the year, it reveals a welding together of two things which in many
minds have unfortunately become divorced: the practical problems and
arduous labour which no tiller of the soil can escape and--the keen
delight of a poetical temperament in the ever-changing, yet annually
renewed, beauties of earth and sky and running water.

It escapes the dry technicalities of the agricultural text-book, while
at the same time conveying innumerable valuable hints on practically
every branch of "small farming"--advice which springs from the
author's thorough knowledge based on long and often hard experience.

On the other hand, while entirely free from that all too common defect
of "nature-books"--hot-house enthusiasm--it will delight the most
incurable townsman (providing his sense of beauty is not withered) by
its joyous yet restrained pictures of open-air things.

_Simple Rules of Health._ By Philip Oyler, M.A. (2nd ed.). 3d. net.
Post free from the author, Morshin School, Headley, Hants.

An admirable epitome of what might be called "advanced health culture
without crankiness." The author is an ardent advocate of simplicity in
all things and--practises what he preaches. Moreover, he is one of
those who sees health from all points of view: he is as much concerned
with what the English Bible calls "a right spirit" as with a fit body
and a responsive mind. It is a little book deserving of a wide
circulation.
