O. Sharland, of i)m' ' city, devotod to the discussion of the laws of ' health, and how to preserve it. No knoiw;-. ledge can be so incessantly appealedo t byilie* '. incidents of every day as the* knowledge of : ',"' the processes by which man lives and acti;'.' '/■ and no scientific subject can be' so important ,-■-,-', to him as that of his own life. '__t every 1 moment he is in danger of disobeying laws, which whon disobeyed, may bring years' of suffering, decline of power, and premature decay. Sanitary reformers preach in Tain," because they preach to a public -which does ' not understand the laws of life. E\en tl\« : l . sad experiences o f otliera yields US no leSSOD unless the principles involved are understood, '" If one man suffers from impure air, another may endure it without apparent harm. __"'',' third concludes that it is all chance, and trusts , to that chance. Had he understood the ■ " principles involved, lie would not have been •, left to chance ; his first lesson in swimming ' * would not have been a shipwreck. The writer justly observes :— " That it is incumr ■ . bent upon every man to liavo an intelligent, knowledge o£ the wonderful structure of lawa ! - '.".' for the preservation of health, and of th'_\."'' remedies which science lias discovered for the,' relief of disease and suffering. Mr Sharland' ;; shows that a clear and accurate conception of ,''. the chief physiological laws, sufficient for ', ordinary practical guidance, may be impressed ' upon the mind and illustrated by memorable facts, without once appealing to anatomical. '■ knowledge. It seems to have been his object to expound principles rather than to teaoh a science. He has endeavored to be intelligible and interesting to all. The chapters embracing the subjects of the physiology and chemistry of common life are excellent. The views set forth on air, food, ventilation,' • . baths, bathing, clothing, &c., also deserve' i careful attention. Mr Sharland has taken great pains and bestowed considerable labor on the work. It is published at a low price, and will be found a most useful text-book mr the household, both in town and country. We refer the public to the advertisement of its publication, in om- third page, for further particulars. In our advertising columns will be found' ■ the notice of ■an excellent little work called : "The Settlors' Guide," emanating from the pen of Mr J. C. Shavland, of Auckland, which. , • . is well worth the attention of our town and country readers. It treats briefly all matters, . ; , of health and disease, and gives, in acorn*. .... pendious form, an account of the diseases to , which the human frame is liable, and tke : .... means of counteracting or alleviating them . When the doctor is at hand such a work may still bo useful, for its information and' for ulffl for food suitable for the sick, and for "its p'actical remarks on hygiene, and varioua othei 1 subjects connected with the household.. We must accord the meed of praiße to Mr, Shavland for having arranged his subjects x with great method, and in a style concise and, ■' comprehensible to everyone. We wish : him every success, not only in the sale of lus book, but for his spirit and enterprise in pre> paring medical remedies, all of which beaiJ' ■ ; the highest reputation for efficacy, genuine' noss, and moderate price. ■ . ■ Price: Is.
