 yoium reader is referred to Nature itself rather than to books, and is taught to 

 observe and investigate, and not to rest satisfied with a collection of dull defini

 found a valuahle and interesting addition to the somewhat overcrowded child's 

 library." Boston Gazette.

" The volume is attractive as a book of anecdotes of men of science and their 

 discoveries. Its remarkable features are the sound judgment with which the 

 true landmarks of scientific history are selected, the conciseness cf the informa- 

 tion conveyed, and the interest with which the whole subject is nevertheless in- 

 vested. Its style is strictly adapted to its avowed purpose of famishing a text- 

 hook for the use of schools and young persons." London Daily Xew?. 



' A most admirable little volume. It is a classified resume of the chief discov- 

 eries in physical science. To the young student it is a book lo open up new 

 worlds with every chapter." Graphic. 



"The book will be a valuable aid in the study of the elements of natural 

 science." Journal of Education.
