SOME OPIJNIONTS 
“ Mr. Knight has the art of inspiring in his readers 
a vivid sympathy and interest .” — The Daily News. 
“ There is a vein of genuine poetrj’ in Mr. Knight, 
and in his wanderings * By Moorland and Sea’ it 
finds graceful expression. Each little delicate pic- 
ture is firmly drawn, and has in it just the requisite 
amount of local colour. The breath of the country- is 
in these sketches, and that fact in part explains their 
spell, and the rest of the secret stands revealed in the 
brilliant descriptive gift of the writer .” — The Speaker. 
“Mr. Knight has a happy faculty of seizing the 
picturesque features of the scenes he describes.” -The 
Times. 
“ This work is so fresh, so breezy*, so realistic, that 
we can almost imagine we are inhaling the pure moor- 
land air and drinking in the beauty of the scenery 
which he so graphically describes. The drawings 
also which beautify the ]>agesare equal to the literary 
merits of the book ,” — Public Opinion. 
“ Every lover of nature will welcome Mr. Knight’s 
book. It is a delightful volume. The author excels 
himself in his Somersetshire sketche«^ : there is an in- 
finite charm and a musical rhythm about his writing 
which cannot fail to please." — Star. 
“A delightful volume. Mr. Knight possesses the 
rare gift of describing the beauties of Nature in 
OP THE PHESS. 
f language at once artistic and syTnpathetic. His 
! sketches show a genuine love and knowledge of 
Nature’s trifles as well as of her grander displays, 
and many little details which would escape a less 
close obseiY'er sen.'e to make his pictures harmonious 
and complete .” — Morning Post. 
“We are everywhere impressed by the w’eallh of 
thought and obser\*ation possessed by the author ; in 
fact, one finds here much of that rare spirit which 
sprang to life in the writings of the late Richard 
J eflferies.” — Naturalists' Journal. 
“ A perfectly fascinating volume to the lover of 
nature. It is admirably adapted for the drawing 
room table, and we promise the reader a rich treat.” 
— The Record. 
“ We know of no living writer who is equal to Mr. 
Knight in this particular department of a delicate, 
difficult and fascinating art. ‘Sounds of the Night' 
is a perfect gem, and might be quoted anywhere as a 
model of style .” — Bristol Mercury. 
“ The mantle of the late Richard Jefferies has fallen 
upon Mr. Knight, and he wears it worthily. An 
artist’s eye, rare skill of band, and gift of style go to 
make up a most delightful volume .” — Cambridge In- 
dependent.

The Health and Vigour of an indi- 
vidual depends upon the quantity and 
quality of the Blood. When the tissues 
have been at work there are thrown into 
the blood waste products, and if these be 
not eliminated but (through any cause) 
detained in the blood they influence nu- 
trition and function and finally produce 
organic disease.” — The Humanitarian.
