BOOK NOTICE. 



Woodland Idyls. By W. S. Blatchley. The Nature Publishing 

 Company, Indianapolis. Price SI. 25, post-paid. 



In this little book are recorded the observations and reflections 

 of one who pitched his tent, and spent his summer vacation, apart 

 from the haunts of men, living, in gipsy style, upon squirrels, berries, 

 and other woodland supplies. 



The author has contrived, by an unusual construction of his 

 sentences, to give an air of quaintness to his work— as in: — 



"The prunella, favourite of my summer blossoms, did I find on 

 yesterday," page 86.
