There is an impression that the scenes Of
Eastern life portrayed with so much vigor in
Eothen" were never witnessed by Mr.. King
lake save as he beheld them pictured TO his
mental vision. We need not say that such
foot far from impeaching the merit OF the book.
constitutes signal tribute 10 its literary quail
ity. We speak therefore. in no spirit of de-
traction, but rather Of compliment. when We say
OF certain books Of travel that their really sub
stantal and admirable part might have been
executed at home. This Ia especially apt TO be
the case when the travellers aim was not go
much to photograph the actual aspects Of nature
in a given country or the present status Of its
denizens. MS 10 solve one Of those obscure
historical problems upon which a brief study Of
localities cannot be expected to throw much
light Thus il is less what Dr. S. c. BARTLETr
saw than what he has read and thought which
gives interest and value TO the work lately pub
lished By the Harpers under the title From
EgVp' 10 Palestine. This journey. we are told.
was undertaken with the definite purpose Of
Identifying tho statements Of the Pentatcuch
regarding the soiourn Of the Israetes in
Egypt and their subsequent exodus with the
established historical and geographical data
The writer does not claim however, that his
cursory inspection OF the country between tho
Nile and the Jordan bore fruit in any dis
coyeries or enabled him 10 correct theories Of
the route trayersed by the children OF Israel
through observations not already Accessible in
books But DR.. Bartlett has ayailed himself of
the opportunity to embodT In most engaging
and suggestive narrative the results OF all the
industrious and acute investigations directed
for quarter OF century toward the reconcilia-
ton Of the Biblical account with the monuments
of Egyptian history The result s statement

DemOnoiosy and Devil Lore.

Under the above title Mr. MoNcuRK d.
CONWAY has compiled n mass OF interesting
materials which Henry Holt & Co. have pub
lshed in two attractive volumes. The writer
does not assume 10 Oder a scientific explanation
OF tho imaginary environment created bV the
primitive man. and Of which 80 many survivals
may be recognized in existing euperstitions.
That difficult task has been undertaken and
pushed far toward completion by Herbert
Spencer. and we may add that the concrete facts
presented by Mr.. Conway may be found in their
most condensed and naked form scattered MP
and down the cumbrous volumes Of the De-
scriptive Sociology issued under Mr.. Spencer's
supervision. But the latter is a vast and labYrn-
thine storehouse of data useful to the inductve
reasoner rather calculated to repel than to in
tercst the general reader. They deserve to re-
ceive literary MS well as scientific treatment
and we are glad 10 sec them grouped together
In striking and engaging way
Mr.. Spencer has pointed out the characteristic
mark Of all those superstitons. which imply
the existence Of supernatural beings in the
world around us. They are not primary beliefs
10 which We have at the outset an innate pro-
cltviiy, but should rather be accounted second
AIRY beliefs, into which the primitive man is be-
traycd during his early attempts 10 understand
his surroundings. II in his frst efforts at in
depreciation he forms conceptions inconsistent
with the distinction between animate and in
animate things. it is probably because some
striking experience misleads him-ntroduces
germ OF error which develops into a whole
system OF erroneous suppOstlons. Mr.. Spencer
would seek this gcrmina error ia those con-
tinually recurring states like sleep or trance in
which living things simulate things not alive.
and in tho phenomena Of metamorphosis ana
growth. Thus dream experiences may be the
data out Of which the conception OF a mental
self is eventually evolved. This belief more
over, in another sell belonging TO him. thus en-

A New Calculating Mae-:~e.

Prof. James Thompson has recently oon-
structed a machine which, II is said. by means
OF the more friction Of a disk. a cylinder. and a
ball Is capable Of going through variety OF
complicated calculations which occur ia the
highest application OF mathematics TO physical
problems so that. by It's aid. an unskilled la
borer may perform the work OF ton skilled
mathemnticians. This machine is represented
as applicable alike 70 the calculation OF tidal,
of mas netic. Of meteorological and perhaps
Of all other periodic phenomena; II will solve
the different equations Of the second and pos
sihy even OF higher orders and. through the
free motions OF any number Of mutually attrac-
tive particles. unrestricted by any of the APP
proNimate suppositious required in the lunar
and planetary theories is reduced TO the simple
PROCESS OF turning handle.

Personal Appearance and High Health.

There are few persons who would not
confess an interest in the art OF acquiring or
preserving good looks. but most treatiscs on the
subject have m mir OF charlatanry that provokcs
ridicule and renders sober people 10th 10 dis
cuss the theme at oil. Such persons will BE- glad
20 see some plain and sensible observations on
the sulecc,, which dispel our suspicious Of
quackery by reminding US that comelness Of
aspect as distinguished from mere regularity
of feature is nothing more nor less than the in
dex and authentic voucher Of high vitality.
They will find the subiect treated in this appro-
pirate vein by Or. SIDNEY OouPLASp in a littlc
handbook called PERSONAL appearances IN
Heahh and Disease which forms ono OF tho
latest numbers in Appletons series Of Health

Probably the most attractive CHAPTER in DR..
Coupland's manual will be deemed that which
treats of tho adipose tissues and the methods
OF promoting or rotardinG the deposit Of fat.
1t is well 10 remember that both loanness

for the influence OF hcredity in some direc-
tions yet il is certain that this goes for a great
deal in the creation Of spare habit Of body.
OF course severe mental application, like ex-
hausting physicaltoil, tends, other things being
equal, TO arrest fat production, but this sums
the scanty measure Of truth in the words ap-
piled by CPsar 70 Cassius. Another noteworthy
point should be scored 10 the credit Of lean
