MRS. J. E. JOICE writes : "I find it a very useful book and full of practical 

 information, especially about diet for children." 



L. PAULY M. D. writes : "I am glad to know that we are going to have a 

 German edition of The Feeding and Management of Infants and Children. 

 I know of no such book in German of a similar character and am confident 

 that it will be welcomed by all thinking German mothers." 



MRS. T. WILCE, President of the Mother's Society of Chicago, says : "It 

 is the most instructive book for mothers and < specially young mothers, 

 that has come to my notice and I earnestly advise all prospective mothers 

 to read it. Would to God that I had had such a book years ago. 



MRS. H. E. REDEKER of Kenosha, Wis., writes: "I think it is the bestwork 

 of the kind I have seen. lam glad that 1 shall have Dr. Duncan at hand 

 ready to consult at any moment for I have the greatest confidence iu all 

 that he says. It is a book that it seems to me every mother would like to 

 have." 



DR. EDWARD CRANCH, Secy, of the American Paedological Society (com- 

 posed of the leading physicians interested in Children's Diseases), says : 

 *' I have carefully examined the work and unhesita ingly pronounce it a 

 most necessary book for all families. It ought to go into every intelligent 

 household where the health of the little ones is valued." 



'Prevention is better than cure," and many a babe will fare better if the 

 mother follows the advice given by 'hat great friend of our babies, T. C. 

 Duncan. It is a work, whose first part we can fully endorse, and since I 

 studied th< se alkaline and acid babies, my endeavors are to have my little 

 patients alkaline. The artificial feeding of children is a most interesting 

 study even to an old physician and only by following closely the rules laid 

 down, can we prevent the necessity of studying the secoud part. North

The Organon of London, Eng., says: "Paedology is Dr. Duncan's Specia- 

 lite and we may be sure that what he writes on this subject contains some- 

 thing worth reading. His Encyclopedia on Diseases of Infants and Child- 

 ren is a work for the profession ; this one is for the public, and a better 

 work on the subject we do not remember to have seen. * * Every day 

 rules for diet and regimen generally, are what the public should know, and 

 without these the skill of the physician is daily thwarted ; iu this respect 

 Dr. Duncan has performed his work admiiably. The book is elegantly 

 gotten up."
