A treatment so safe in operation and so successful in result should be know and practised when , from cold ami sundry other causes , disease is attempting to gain a vexatious footing ,

All Books intended for Beview should be addressed to th Editor of The Freemason ' s Chronicle , 67 Barbican , E . C . The Royal Masonic Cyclopxdia of History , Rites , Symbolism , and Biography , Part VI . Edited by Kenneth E . M . Mackenzie , IX ( " Cryptonymus" ) . Loudon : Bro . John Hogg , IDA , Paternoster . row , E . C .
THIS completes Bro . Mackenzie ' s work . Wo have already expressed our entire satisfaction with the manner iu which he has accomplished his very difficult task . There is no more sarious undertaking— in tha way of literary labour , at least—than the compilation of a cyclopaedia . Accuracy is essential , or the book is worthless , but how shall a man
find time to bo accurate in all things , when the knowledge of even one thing is denied to so nuuy of us ? There is room to indulge iu propounding novel theories of one ' s own , or even in writing at length on a favourite subject , but considerations of space forbid this . Then something must b ¦» said even ou matters of which
oue has gleaned at best but au imperfect knowledge , and that something must be said creditably , or ttie oyclopiodist will bo laughed afc for undertaking a work beyond his powers . Bro . Mackenzie , however , has done well . There is evidence of painstaking throughout . No one can read the more abstruse articles without entertaining the
conviction that , as regards this most trying section of the work , ib would have been difficult to find a moro learned exponent . In short , The Royal Masonic Cyclopaedia has been well and conscientiously done , and deserves an honoured place in tho library of every Masonic student .
The present number of Picturesque Europe is descriptive of Old English Homes . Tho principal attraction in this periodical are the admirable engravings , with which each number is so profusely embellished . Those in Part 13 aro fully equal in execution and artistic merit to all that have gouo before . Tho steel engraving from a picture by J . Mogford , and engraved by S . Bradshaw , is of "
Bamborough Castle . " Tho minor illustrations include several views of Haddon Hall—from the Terrace , from the Eiver , the Courtyard , tho Banqueting Hall , and Dorothy Vernon's Postern ; of Kenilworth Castle ; tho Courtyard Penshnrst ; tho Gateway , Hever Castle ; Scarborough Castle ; two views in Bristol , of Templo-sfcreet and St . Peter ' s Hospital , and the Gate at Chepstow Castle .
Alboifc a somewhat eccentric , the Eev . Eowland Hill was a thoroughly good man , and tho sketch which tho current number of Sunday at Home contains of him , from tho pen of tho Rev . 13 . Paxton Hood will fiud a host of appreciative readers . Indeed , wo have seldom read a biographical sketch which has afforded us greater pleasure . " A Passover Night on Gorizim , " by the Eev . J . W .
Bardsley , ancl No . III . ot " Pictures from Jewish Life , by J . Alexander , are not only appropriate to tho work in which they appear , but of themselves admirable pictures of the olden time . " Our China Teacups" is a neatly told little tale , and there is likewise meutionable No . III . of the late It . Damaus ' s series of articles on "The English
Bible , " which we take this opportunity of commending to tho notice of our readers . A coloured illustration , "The Convalescent , " makes an excellent frontispiece , ancl there aro in addition tho regulation number of engravings which , as usual , are in every respect praiseworthy .
Mr . Gilbert Marsh contributes to the London Magazine a neat little poem , entitled "A very Bro vu Study , " aud the accompanying illustration is quite in keeping with it . " Mayfair , " by a London writer , is an excellent representative of serial fiction . Cuthbort Bedo ' s account of " A Chivalrous Adventure" ia amusing , an I there is much
righteous indignation iu Mr . Herbert Doll man's unfortunately too true picture of what many " Peuny . Eeadings" are . We have read Mr . Edgar Brinsmead ' s History of the Pianoforte , so that we can fully appreciate the review of it iu these pages . The sketch of " Edmund Burke , " and the dramatic article " From th * Stalls , " are worthy con . tnbutions to a well-conducted and readable magazine .
