A Nature Wooing at Ormond by the Sea. By W. S. Blatchley, State 

 Geologist, Indiana. Nature Publishing Co , Indianapolis. Price post- 

 paid I1.25. This is an illustrated work of 245 pages and describes a vaca- 

 tion trip to Florida. " Southward I went, but my rest was mainly taken 

 in the great hospital of Nature— the woods and fields of the region where 

 I sojourned. There I jotted down the facts and fancies concerning the 

 animals and plants about me." The function of a book of this kind is to 

 stimulate others to take an interest in the beauties of Nature and to typify 

 the highest and best kind of recreation. The author is a trained natural- 

 ist, and he describes in a most entertaining way the animals, birds, plants 

 and insects he saw, as well as the forms long since dead and gone. Lists 

 of the Odonata, Orthoptera, Heteroptera, Lepidoptera and Coleoptera, 

 are given with notes. We recommend this little book to all who have 

 visited Florida and to those who contemplate such a journey.
