21. MARRIAGE AND MOTHERHOOD

A Wife's Handbook

By H. S. Davidson, M. B., F. R. C.S. E. "The physical condition of the infant depends so intimately on that of the mother that it is the duty of the expectant mother to keep herself as fit as may be physically and mentally." The book covers the subject from the beginning of pregnancy, discussing its various signs to the completion of birth. It explains the variety of conditions that may occur, advising how a happy outcome may be arrived at following the simplest rules.

92. THE TRAINING OF THE CHILD

A Parent's Manual
By G. Spiller

The moral and intellectual education of the child should begin at birth. It should have a definite aim. Mr. G. Spiller, organizer of the first "International Moral Education Congress, has prepared a handy manual covering infancy, childhood and youth. It suggests a logical method to insure sound moral fibre and intellectual growth consistent with the natural development of the child.

A Mother's Book by a Mother

By a University Woman

A baby's first two years are the critical years. A mother raising, her
first child requires every assistance to help it past the dangers that
exact their tremendous toll. The rules concerning diet, clothing.
bathing, sleeping, etc.. are few but tremendously important. The
author, mother of three children, has built this practical book upon
her own experiences. She presents no elaborate theories. Her advice
is wholesome commonsense. Her methods of combating the many
infantile diseases are simple and easily followed.

20. YOUTH AND SEX-
Dangers and Safeguards for Girls and Boys
By Mary Scharlieb, M. D., and
G. E. C. Pritchard, M.D.

7HETHER you wish to know about the local conditions that are responsible for the political complications in the Balkans, referred to in the morning paper, or to ascertain what are the symptoms of diphtheria, what is the population of Honolulu, how to ride a horse, or how to lay out a tennis-court, the answer is given promptly, authoritatively, in the new Encyclopædia Britannica.

No less promptly and authoritatively will this great work answer questions relating to your business, the articles of daily use in your home, your recreations or your fads, the affairs of the day in national or international politics, the new tendencies in social progress, the new developments in science, in literature, or in art; an invention, a theory, an event in history, the life of a famous man, conditions of trade or manufacture in any city or country of the globe, etc. The immediate crisis of the moment may require an answer which this book, alone of all works of reference, can give at once-an answer that may be valuable beyond estimation in mere dollars and cents.

The Encyclopædia Britannica gives not only the last and most authoritative word on scientific research, but it deals with matters of practical, every-day concern. The explanation of a strange term in poker, the industries and products of California, or directions for gardening operations for each month of the year, are as essential to its completeness as a description of the latest theories concerning "canals" on the planet Mars.

FOR READING OR FOR STUDY

HE new Encyclopædia Britannica is full of the romance of the age in which we live. It contains all that is new, and new views of all that is old. Its pages deal with the amazing progress and the revolutionary changes which have made the last twenty-five years so prolific in scientific productivity, and in appliances for increasing human comfort and economizing industrial effort. The new edition gives the history of the remotest ages as that history is known to archæologists whose latest discoveries have thrown new light upon old problems. Its articles dealing with the newest developments in science, in manufactures, in commerce, in exploration, are written by practical experts.

Articles of a utilitarian character have received no less attention than those of a purely theoretical sort. The recent industrial and social changes in all lands; recent wars, treaties, and conventions; recent progress in the development of literature, of art, pure and applied; the new interpretations in religion and philosophy-in fact, the whole story of all that is interesting and important in the prodigious activities in every department of the world's life that have marked the last twenty-five years, are here stated clearly by authorities.
