siderable time to an article by DR.. Ma
than Allen ON The Decline of Sucking
Power among American Women a
subject with which he is perhaps more
familiar than any other writer in the
country. Another medical article of
value is DIR. Chapin's "PneumOnia in
Infants and Young Children" which
lays great stress on the Importance of
certain symptoms of a general cold,
which, if neglected, are likely to do
velop into grayer diseases. Dir. Edwin
a. Clarke furnishes "A Medical view
Of Nursery Dicipline," ILLUSTRATING
graphically, by examples taken from
his practice, the necessity of enforcing
obedience on the part of the little ones.
The department of Nursery Observa-

obstructive accounts of children's traits,
under such headings as 1.-The Record of
Fond Brother and Sister, Another
