Hadyn's Dictionary of Dates Relating to all Ages and Nations, for Universal Reference. Comprehending remarkable Occurrences, the Foundation, Laws, and Governments of Countries Their Progress-Their Achievements, and their Institutions. Twenty-first edition. Containing the History of the World to the Autumn of 1895. By Benjamin Vincent. 8, pp. 1136. Half Russia, $9.50; cloth, $6.50.

This is the most comprehensive and reliable book of reference in this department ever published. It stands entirely by itself. "For a reference library, public or private, the first work selected should be 'Webster's International Dictionary;' the second, 'Hadyn's Dictionary of Dates,' says an eminent

scholar.

"Hadyn's work, like the lucifer-match and the glass window, gives us the impression of being so altogether indispensable that it is difficult to imagine a period in the history of civilization when it was not in existence. The 'Dictionary of Dates' has won a great reputation, and this new edition will sustain and extend it. The book is what it professes to be a dated cyclopædia, a digested summary of human history, brought down to the eve of publication. Considering the size of the work, its up-to-dateness is something astonishing."-London Spectator.

Last Chance to obtain a Rare Book.

"Life of Jesus Critically Examined," by David Friedrich Strauss, was first published in two volumes for $9.00. The edition ran out, and another was issued in one volume for $4.50. They will not last long, and I advise those who want a copy to send at once. When these are gone there will be no more. This edition is translated from the fourth German edition by George Eliot, and contains 784 large octavo pages of solid reading. This is a very valuable work, one which the church wishes had never been written, but which it cannot controvert.

Eusebius's Ecclesiastical History. 8°. Cloth, $2.50. Woman, Church, and State. By Matilda Joslyn Gage. Every woman ought to read it, Every Liberal woman and man will want it. This is Mrs. Gage's latest and crowning work. It is THE book to show how the church has enslaved woman and kept and keeps her in an inferior position. The work is a burning protest against the tremendous_wrong done woman by the church, which controlled the state. It is also extremely valuable as history. No woman, it seems to us, can read it and remain a supporter of the religious institution which has crushed her individuality, her mentality, and degraded her person. To the woman's cause it opens an Age of Reason. It ought to be widely read for the good it will do. In cloth, $2.00; half leather, $3.00.
