Book VI. is fitted for higher Classes, and as an Introduction to English Literature.

"They are far above any others that have appeared both in form and substance. The editor of the present series has rightly seen that reading books must aim chiefly at giving to the pupils the power of accurate, and, if possible, apt and skilful expression; at cultivating in them a good literary taste, and at arousing a desire of further reading. This is done by taking care to select the extracts from true English classics, going up in Standard VI. course to Chaucer, Hooker, and Bacon, as well as Wordsworth, Macaulay, and Froude. This is quite on the right track, and indicates justly the ideal which we ought to set before us.”— GUARDIAN.

WRIGHT—THE SCHOOL COOKERY BOOK.

Compiled

and Edited by C. E. GUTHRIE WRIGHT, Hon. Sec. to the Edinburgh School of Cookery. 18mo. IS.

Sir T. D. ACLAND, Bart., says of this book:-"I think the 'School Cookery Book' the best cheap manual which I have seen on the subject. I hope teachers will welcome it. But it seems to me likely to be even more useful for domestic purposes in all ranks short of those served by professed cooks. The receipts are numerous and precise, the explanation of principles clear. The chap ers on the adaptation of food to varying circumstances, age, climate employment health and on infants' food, seem to me excellent."
