" The charm of this book is as pervading and enduring as 

 is the charm of nature." N. Y. Times. 



Mrs. Parsons's book is designed as a companion volume, 

 uniform in size, to her extremely popular books, " How to 

 Know the Wild Flowers" and "How to Know the Ferns." 

 Miss Shaw's colored ' plates add greatly to the beauty and 

 serviceableness of the volume, the plan of which will appeal 

 to all nature-lovers. All of the colored plates are different 

 from those in the "Wild Flowers." Several of these 

 chapters were published a number of years ago in a small 

 volume, under the same title and without illustrations.
