The great defect in the numerous Manuals of Cookery, which at
present divide the public favour, is their bulk and price. Neither of
these objections apply:to the present work; although it will be found
to contain all that is really and most practically useful to the good
and economical housewife. It has been the object of the Autho-
ress to supply all the requisite information for keeping a well-or-
dered kitchen, and furnishing a respectable table, without perplex-
ing the young Housekeeper with a useless variety of recipes, and a
multitude of details, which, even where not entirely frivolous, may
at all times be best left to individual judgment, experience, and
convenience.

POCKET GUIDE 'TO 'DOMESTIC COOKERY. BY A LADY.—
This little volume posses an advantage which few volumes can lay
clam to—it contains everything that is necessary on the subject ;
&id nothing more. Its minute size—its neat style of binding, and
the clear and methodical arrangement of the subject, will ensure for
it, we doubt not, a very extended popularity ; and enable it to
usurp the place of more pretending, but less convenient treatises.
The ' art of carving' is explained in a manner which will be found
useful to those who, through dire necessity, or extreme philan-
thropy, are desirous of attaining a dangerous pre-eminence in that
useful art.'—Edinburgh Weekly Journal.

The MOTHER'S POCKET MEDICAL GUIDE, on the

THE POCKET MEDICAL GUIDE, AND THE MOTHER'S POCKET
MEnicAL GUIDE.-" Mr. M'Phun has become celebrated for
bringing out cheap and useful publications of this sort, and none
more useful than the two now before us could well have been given
to the public. The one is a treatise written in a popular style,
on diet and regimen, cold and its effects, and the use and abuse of
medicine ; and the other is one on the physical education and
diseases of children. They are the first of a series, worthy of the
attention of non-professional readers. The contents are arranged
on an excellent plan, besides being in a form which includes much
practically useful information in a small space. They are astonish-
ingly moderate in price ; and we consider the community much in-
debted to the spirited publisher for these two interesting publica-
tions."—Aberdeen Observer, Oct. 14, 1834.
