The book is one that should find hosts of earnest readers, for
its admonitions are sadly needed, not in the country alone, but in the
city, where, if better ideas of diet prevail, people have yet as a
rule a long way to go before they attain the path of wisdom. Meanwhile
it remains true, as Mrs. Campbell makes Dr Scarborough declare, that
the cabbage soup and black bread of the poorest French peasants are
really better suited to the sustenance of healthy life than the
"messes" that pass for food in many parts of rural New England.--_The

This story is on the scale of a cabinet picture. It presents
interesting figures, natural situations, and warm colors. Written in a
quiet key, it is yet moving, and the letter from Bolton describing the
fortunate sale of Roger's painting of "The Factory Bell" sends a tear
of sympathetic joy to the reader's eye.
