The House We Live In: or, The Making of the Body
THIS valuable little work, written especially for the study of the youth, sets forth in an interesting and instructive manner all the wonders, uses, and functions of the human body in all its various parts. The plan of the book is conversational,—a mother talking with her children, and teaching them very practical lessons on the care of the body from common, every-day objects with which the children are familiar. It is a book for home reading, and will be of great assistance to mothers in teaching their children how to care for themselves physically, and to avoid the evil effects of narcotics and stimulants. It will be worth many times its cost in all families where there are children. The work contains 218 pages, with nearly 150 illustrations; bound in cloth; price, $1.
