 Association. His Manual of Bee-keeping, just published, is full to the vcr> brim of 

 choice and practical hints fully up to the most advanced stages of Apiarian Science,

 from it for the benefit of our readers." — Bee-keepers' Magazine (New York).

 their utility. . . . There is an old saying that ' easy writing is hard reading,' but we 

 will not say thus much of Mr Hunter's book, which, taken as a whole, is perhaps the 

 most generally useful of any now published in this country." — The Field.

 " This little book is devoted to the description and treatment of many tropical 

 diseases and minor emergencies, supplemented by some useful hints on diet, clothing, 

 and equipment for travellers in tropical climates. The issue of a third edition proves 

 that the book has hitherto been successful. On the whole we can commend the hints 

 which have been given for the treatment of various diseases, but iu some places much 

 , has been left to the knowledge of the reader in the selection and apphcation of a 

 remedy." — Scottish Geographical Magazine.

 ' Tropical Trials ' because it has had many more predecessors. It is now in a third edition, 

 and contains practical suggestions for the maintenance of health and bodily comfort, 

 as well as the treatment of simple diseases, with useful remarks on clothing and equip- 

 ment tor tho guidance of travellers abroad." — Daily Telegfa^h. 



Tropical Trials, A Handbook for Women in the Tropics. Crown 8vo, 

 7s. 6d. 

 *' Is a valuable handbook for women in the East, and, we are glad to see, now in its 

 second edition. It does not treat theoretically of the maladies incidental to Europeans 

 in hot climates, or go deeply into those matters which properly belong to the, experi- 

 enced doctor, but it gives plain, wholesome advice on matters of health, which, were 

 it scrupulously followed, it is not too much to say would add fifty per cent, to the 

 enjoyment of our countrywomen abroad. She could scarcely have a better guide as 

 to what to do and what not to do than this excellent handbook, which deserves to be 

 included in every woman's foreign outfit." — Daily Telegraph.
