By Otis Tufton Mason, A. M., Curator of the Department of Ethnology in
the United States National Museum. With numerous illustrations. 12mo, I 50
This is the first volume in the ANTHROPOLOGICAL SERIES, edited by Prof. Frederick
Starr, of the University of Chicago. The series is undertaken in the hope that anthro-
pology--the science of man-may become better known to intelligent readers. While the
books are intended to be of general interest, they will in every case be written by
authorities wo will not sacrifice scientific accuracy to popularity. In the present
volume is traced the interesting period when with fire-making began the first division of
labor-a division of labor based upon sex-the man going to the field or forest for game,
while the woman at the fireside became the burden-bearer, basket-maker, weaver,
potter, agriculturist, and domesticator of animals.
