THE POWDER OF SYMPATHY.

Illustrated by Walter Jack Duncan. Octavo, brown cloth spine over buff-colored boards, xii [2] 304 pages. Essays and sketches mostly written for a newspaper column "I have christened these soliloquies after dear old Sir Kenelm Digby's famous nostrum, the Powder of Sympathy. But in spite of its amiable name and properties that powder was not a talcum. Its basis was vitriol; and I fear that in some of these prescriptions I have mixed a few acid crystals." --from the preface.
