We know, of course, that no verbal description can do justice to the many and varied charms of our old New Eng- land as a summer resort. Here is country and seashore, pine woods, mountains, rocks and sand ; in fact from the Canadian line of Maine, New Hampshire or A'ermont to the end of Cape Cod, there is scarcely a foot of ground that has not some peculiar attractions for the summer tourists and we hope that this book maj- be of interest to you, not onl)', in possibly aiding your judgment in the selection of a summer home, but also in giving j'ou some little idea of the natural beauties of this part of our country. Please bear in mind that our office in Boston is directlj^ in the centre of the city, near the shopping district and across the street from the Park Street Station of the Subway, practicallj- the terminus of the majority of the transportation lines of the city. We have here photographs and booklets of nearly all the places mentioned in the Manual and if you are undecided and want more in- formation, we shall consider it a kindness on j-our part if you will let us know^ it. You will always find stationary and other conveniences here and we are only too glad to be of service to you in any way. Inquiries will be answered promptly and are solicited. Finally, as our system is entirely new and we are anxious that our subscribers and advertisers should know that you have seen their names in our Manual, may we not ask 5'ou, if you write them or go to their places to mention that fact. It will certainly be of great benefit to us and no trouble to you. I Places of Interest in Boston and Uicinity i Agassiz Museum. Divinity Avenue, Caml^ridge.

The town crier still makes his rounds ; the entire population still hurries to the wharf on the arrival of the steamer ; the same old weather beaten houses with their railed roof platforms, where anxious eyes watched for the return of the whalers half a century ago, still stand a mute reminder of a glo- rious past. No person who has ever spent a summer here but has a soft spot in his heart for the place, and the elegant estates and fine hotels on the " Cliff " show in what estimation the island is held by those who have been here often enough to allow its charms full time to work. The records of the weather bureau since its establishment, show the highest temperature on the island to have been 87°, and if in a summer the thermometer reaches 84°, the natives refer for several 3'ears to the " hot " day. It is the most healthful, most restful, most delightful place on the face of the earth, and is reached by boat from either New Bedford or Woods Hole after a sail on a pleasant day to be always remembered. Sea Cliff Inn. Mrs. C. W. Pettee, Prop. The leading Hotel of the island, occu- pies the finest possible situation ; standing as it does on the famous "Cliff" and overlooking both the beautiful waters of the harbor and ocean and the broad sweeps of the green moors.

Discovered by Thorwald, the viking, who is described by the old sagas as enraptured with the place, the passing years have only served to intensify its charms until, at the present time, its rocks and sands are dotted over with magnificent private estates and hotels second to none on the Atlantic coast. To one who loves old ocean at its grandest, an easterl}- storm is a revelation, while the soft south-west winds of the summer, always cool, because always off the water, give a deep shimmering blue to the ocean's surface alike enjoyable to the eye and the senses.

The water is alwa^-s warm and with no undertow. " AT COHASSKT " Nantasket is too well known to require description. It suffices to say that within ten miles of Boston this narrow arm between ocean and bay offers an opportunity for a summer's stay, always cool and always popular with those who require more or less " action " during their summer. At Hull there is a large j-acht club and the anchorage is a famous rendezvous for boats from all parts of the coast. Continuing down the coast Cohasset is the one place on the South Shore where rocks abound and one fond of surf can be sure of having their fill during an easterly' storm. Scituate has a sea coast of about 14 eight miles, all sand, and the ocean frontage has been almost entirely covered by beautiful cottages and high class hotels. It is a paradise for bathers. Marshfield, the next township, was the home of Daniel Webster and is a quiet sea coast farming town, where opportunities for quiet and restful summering are unequalled. The Winslow House built in 1696 is still standing together with the ancient Winslow burial ground. Next to Marshfield is Duxbury, a delightful place in which to spend a summer. It has every advantage a favorite summer resort can have ; accessibility, beautiful drives, the finest of sea bathing, safe boating and fishing and in addition to these, has historical charms enough to interest a person fond of the study, for many summers. The home of Miles vStandish, Elder Brewster, John Alden and other signers of the original compact in the cabin of the May- flower, it is rich in Pilgrim lore, and it is not strange that it has become the summer home of a number of well known people.
