Science Gossip . the morphology of plants,proceeding to the anatomy, thence to the analysis ofsections, the histology of the cells, tissues, and roots,the physiology of growth and movement, classificationand plant description. A good index further enhancesthe value of this small text-book. The Birds of Eastern North America. WaterBirds. Part I. By Charles B. Cory. ix+ 143 in. x 9 in., with numerous illustrations. (Chicago :Field Columbian Museum, 1899.) This is the first part of a series of beautifullyillustrated works on the birds known to occur east ofthe ninetieth meridian. This part deals only withthe water birds, but it is proposed to issue a series ofthese keys, in which the species are groupedaccording to size, not in genera, as is usual. It isbelieved this plan will enable a novice to accuratelyidentify any of the birds. All measurements aregiven in inches and fractions of inches. The illustra-tions, which are well produced, are many in number,and include many well known in this GEOLOGY
