    CAPP The Daughter: Homely Suggestions to Mothers and Daughters. Her EEealtli, Bducation, T^edlock. and By William ^l. Capp, M.D., Philadelphia. This is just such a book as a family physician would advise his lady patients to obtain and read. It answers many questions which every busy practitioner of medicine has put to hira in the sick-room at a time when It is neither expedient nor wise to impart the information sought. It is complete in one bt-autifully printed (large, clear type) 12mo volume of 150 pages. Attractively bound in Extra Cloth. Price, post-paid, in the United States and Canada, $1.00, net; in Great Britain, 5s. 6d.; France, 6 fr. 20. In the 144 pajjos allotted to him he has com- pressed an amount of homely wisdom on the physical, mental, and moral development of the ftnualo child from birth to maturity which is to be found elsewhere in only the p:reat book of experience. It is. of course, a book for mothers, but is one so void of offense in ex- pression or ideas that it can safely be recom- mended for all whose minds are sufficiently developed to appreciate its teachings.—Phila- delphia Public Ledger. Many delicate subjects are treated with skill and in a manner which cannot strike any one as improper or bold. The absolute igno- rance in which most young girls are allowed to exist, even until adult life, is often productive of much misery, both mental and physical. Quite a number of books written by phy- sicians for popular use have been prepared in such a way tliat the professional man can read between tht> lines strong bids for popular favor, etc. These objectionable features will not be found in Dr. Capp's brochure, and for this reason it is worthy the confidence of physicians.—J/edicai JVeivs. A New CATMELL Book on the Physician Himself And Things that Concern His Reputation and Success. (Tenth) Edition, Author's Last Revision. By D. W. Cathell, M.D., Baltimore, Md. This is the author's final revision of one of the most useful, successful, and popular medieval i)()oks cv(m- published. It has been wisely and carefully revised throui^hout. Tlie well-known charniing style of the author is preserved intact, while the practical value of the book is truly enhanced by the addition of much of the author's gathered wisdom not introduced into any previous edition. The vohune has been brought to perfection, as far as human effort can achieve, and though enlarged to 3.50 Royal Octavo Pa(;es the price has not been increased. Handsomely Bound in Estra Cloth, price, in the United States and Canada, post-paid, $2.00,-nst; in Great Britain, lis. 6d.; in France, 12 fr. 40. The Physician Himself interested me so ' nnieli that 1 actually read it through at one j sitting. It is brimful of the very best advice ' possible for nieilical men. I. for one, shall | try to profit by \l.—Prof. Williain Goodell. Philadelphia. ] It is marked with good common sense and j replete with excellent maxims and suggestions for the guidance of medical men.—2Vie British I Medical Journal. j We advise our readers to l)nv it. It will I give them food for thought and show them ! how to and how not to achieve reputation and i success.—77ie Medical Age. We cannf)t too strongly commend it to the ! attention of every youiig doctor. .Manv a I h'.s:ion is i)leasantly and gently taught in its \ pages which cannot otherwise'be learned mi- j jess l)y bitter experience.—Canada Medical \ Record. Of course, one reason for its occult power is ' that it is written with admirable grace and i precision, besides presenting the nps and downs of a physician's life in such a natural , and perfect wav. The book will help anv one I who will read It. It tells you how to hegin practice; leads you into medical ethics | properly, and. carefully studied, the pages of this book will be of great beiielit to the young and iAy\.—C]iarlottc Medical Journal. This book is evidently the production of an nnsi)oiled mind and the fruit of a ripe career. I admire its pure tone and feel the value of its practical points. How I wish I could have read such a guide at the outset of my career! —Prof. James Ncvins Hyde. Chicago, III. The Physician Himself is useful alike to the tyro and the sage—the neophyte and the veteran. It is a headlight in the splendor of whose beams a multitude of our profession shall find their way to sucress.—Pro/. J. M. Bodine, Dean University of J^ouisville. We have read one of the former, and smaller, editions through very carefully, and know of no work in medical literature more i)rotitable for perusal and possession.—Dc/tr^r Medical Times. This book will do a world of good, a good that will be far-reaching and constant, and the fact that it has reached its tenth edition proves toward a higher and yet higher teaehing, tliat the elevation of the profession is a con- sistent and timely a.'iia. — Chicago Clinical Review.
