JUNE ; 



A BOOK FOR THE COUNTRY IN SUMMER TIME. 



By H. T. STAINTON. 



Foolscap 8vo., cloth, gilt, pp. 141. Price 35. London: Longman & Co. 



This little book, with its pleasant name and pretty cover, would appear 

 intended to serve as a sort of decoy-duck to allure many a youngster to 

 the pursuit of Natural History ; no doubt in the first place merely as an 

 amusement, but afterwards probably to some better purpose. 



Perhaps the point most strongly urged is the desirability of school- 

 girls learning something of botany, at any rate that portion has been 

 most frequently quoted by reviewers a> the best specimen of the book. 



Those of our readers who wish to extend a love of Entomology amongst 

 the rising generation are recommended to place "June" before those 

 whom they wish to incite to such studies, as there is nothing alarming 

 either in its title or in the mode in which the varied aspects of the 

 country are sketched.
