These rules were very carefully made up from the A. L. A. Code five years ago. Since then they have been in daily use in the Columbia Library training classes, and the two years in the Library school. For over two years they have been in type, subject to constant criticism and suggestion from those needing their help, and hundreds of minor changes in wording and illustration have been made in the effort to fit them as perfectly as possible for an invaluable guide to catalogers. The most important feature is the graphic illustrations. Fifty-two fac-simile cards were found necessary to fully illustrate all the points. These include all details: the names, titles, imprint, capitals, spacing, indention, reference, and call numbers. They are printed twice in order to show the red down lines in proper position, and blue ink is also indicated by special type. De Witt, Julia A. W. How he made his fortune. Bost., Congregational S.

author considers only second to that of the Alps, is most enthusiastically described. Coming from Paris to Bordeaux and thence to Bayonne and on to Biarritz, Mr. Dix made a halt at this famous watering-place, with its many memories of the Empress Eugénie. From Biarritz he made many short excursions to San Sebastian, St. Jean de Luz, Fuenterrabia, Hendage, and other adjacent places of note. At Pau again he made a stop, running down to Eaux Chandes. Eaux Bonnes, Bigorre, Barèges, Gavarnie, Luchon, and the many other noted recorts clustered here in the mountains. His journey ended on the Mediterranean, having taken him through the very heart of the Pyrenees. His pen does full justice to its mountain peaks, its glanciers and crags, its winding roads and gorges, and the luxurious vegetation and foliage of its valleys. *Dixey, Wolstan.

The religion of Christ unavoidably wrought changes in the daily life and common customs and made war upon the culture, the vices, and the various social arrangements of paganism. A host of difficult questions were poured upon Paul and his calm answers are striking in their intellectual vigor and practical sagacity.

Each topic is explained in a plain and simple manner, and when medical terms are used their lay synonyms are also given.
