Education---Physical and Mental.

The Nursery Book for Young Mothers.

BY MRS. L. C. TUTHILL.

18mo, 50 cents.

This volume will be a welcome present to young mothers. It comprises familiar letters on all topics connected with the medical and educational departments of the Nursery, and is just such a book as every mother will find practically useful; and all the more so as it is written by a competent and experienced person of their own sex.

"There is much excellent counsel in this volume, with occasional toucnes of nature, which shows that the author is observant, and has accustomed herself to note the errors of physical and domestic education. Indeed there are some happy hits at the mistakes of this sort which are as common as children, and graver admonitions that young mothers,' and some assuming to have more experience, might greatly profit by."-N. Y. Com. Adv.

"The title of this neat little volume would not at first seem to indicate any thing new or peculiarly interesting, but at the very first page the attention is arrested, and from thence to the very last note in the Appendix the interest does not flag. It is no dry disquisition upon diet and medicines, but has for its topic nursery education in every branch. The instruction on these various points is communicated in sprightly letters from an aunt to her niece, who, desponding like all young mothers when first left to the care of their infants, applies to her for assistance. The niece, Mrs. Haston, is extremely well drawn. From the moment that she first attempts the child's bath, and sits shivering and trembling, afraid to touch the droll little object,' to her anxious inquiries with regard to the mental and moral training of her children, she is a true woman, and a true mother. The circumstances which call forth the various points of instruction from her aunt are most naturally developed, and, on the whole, we regard it as the best book of the kind ever pub lished. Its peculiar excellence is the sprightly and agreeable style which we have before alluded to, and which would arrest the attention of many a giddy girl-mother,' who would throw aside a dry treatise in despair. Mrs. Tuthill quotes the most unexceptionable authorities for her nursery rules for health."-Phila. Sat. Gazette.
