deserves to be counted a curiosity. The red man's title is a little misleading, his utterance being a lament and an accusation rather than a "greeting." and closing with some mention of an endless abyss." This bit of bark contrasted with the immense accumulations of the Fair suggests thought enough to make a whole philosophic system.

EDUCATION AND TEXT-BOOKS.

The Classic Myths in English Literature. Edited by Charles Mills Gayley. 12mo, pp. 577. Boston: Ginn & Co. $1 65.

The subject of classical mythology in its relations to English literature has within a few years found a place among the requirements for entrance to the University of California. Finding nothing already printed which was exactly suited to prepare students in this subject, Professor Gayley, who occu pies the chair f English language and literature at Berkeley. has furnished this volume. It is very largely based upon Bulfinch's Age of Fable," but Mr. Gayley has so condensed, rearranged and added material as to make an essentially new whole. His illustrative matter from modern literature, the commentary and the double index are quite extensive, and seem very ably prepared. The subject is one which naturally interests all students of classic or modern literature in whatev.r tongue written.

The Seventh Book of Vergil's neid. Edited for the Use of Schools by Wm. C. Collar, A.M. 16mo, pp. 117. Boston: Ginn & Co. 50 cents.

Prof. Collar is an out-and-out defender of those new methods in studying the cla sic, which aim at reading and understanding a literature rather than floundering or painfully creeping through a syntactical bog. The actual text of the seventh book of the Eneid occupies only about a fourth of this convenient little volume. Notes, vocabularies, illustrations, maps, etc., occupy the rest. All in a 1 Prof. Collar seems to have thrown down the gauntlet in defense of a rapid and enjoyable reading of Vergil, and proposes to fight vigor ously for the better and more modern method with the best pedagogical weapons he can procure.

The Living Method for Learning How to Think in German. By Charles F. Kroeh, A.M. 12mo, pp. 272. Hoboken, N. J.: Published by the author. $1.50.

The same attractive and usable system of language acquirement which commended itself in Prof. Kroeh's Living Method" for learning to think in French appears in the volume devoted to the German language. Prof. Kroeh is experienced and practical, which means that he has not made a parrot-like identity between the two books. Act, and think (better, utter) the words of the foreign tongue corresponding to your action, is the constant advice of each, but the idiomatic structures of the French and the German are thoroughly distinguished and well treated. It is interesting as a matter of general information to know that the author is able to furnish phonograph cylinders recording the pronunciation of a native Frenchman (and, we supp se, of a German also), as an aid to students in mastering the strange and difficult sounds of a new language.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY.

The Science of Mechanics. A Critical and Historical Exposition of its Principles. By Dr. Ernst Mach. 12mo, pp. 550. Chicago: The Open Court Pub. Co. $2.50. Mr. Thomas J. McCormack has made an excellent translation into English of the second German edition of "Die Mechanik in ihrer Entwickelung," by Dr. Ernst Mach, professor of physics in the University of Prague. This treatise is a scholarly and inevitably somewhat technical survey, in the usual spirit of German academicians, of the main principles of the science of mechanics. That science is here considered not chiefly on its mathematical side, but rather "as one of the The origin of its principles as well as physical ciences." their permanent value is examined, and, in connection with the work of pioneers in this field, to the other numerous illustrations of the work are added reproductions of old prints of early discoverers and early experimentation.

Arithmetic of Magnetism and Electricity. By John T. Morrow, M.E., and Thorburn Reid, M.E. 12mo, pp. 145. Lynn, Mass.: Bubier I ublishing Co. $1.

The two authors of this work, who are associate members of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, have enumerated the laws of electricity and magnetism having most

direct bearing upon the commercial application of these forces, and to each law appended illustratíve practical problems. No theoretical discussion is involved, and the authors claim a fuller treatment of magnetism han is usual in works of the class.

The Principles of Fitting. For Apprentices and Students in Technical Schools. By a Foreman Pattern Maker. 12mo, pp. 323. New York: Macmillan & Co. $1.50.

The substance of what a veteran "foreman pattern maker" has here to say about the mysteries and practical tricks of his craft appeared originally in a series of articles in The English Mechanic. The author has not only had a wide experience in engineering work, but he has that deep respect for his trade characteristic of the best type of workmen the world over. He speaks straight to the point, and as one having author ity, upon tools," "lining out," "adjustments," "slinging and lifting" and other important details of every-day application in the fitters' life. The book is remarkably clear in style and is well illustrated.

Electric Lighting and Power Distribution. By W. Perren Maycock, M.I.E.E. Part III. Paper, 12mo, pp. 122.

New York: Macmillan & Co. 75 cents.

This is the third and concluding volume of Mr. Maycock's thorough and adequate manual for technical students. It contains ample illustrative matter and a complete index to the three volumes, which are soon to be bound together ir cloth coverings.

REFERENCE, BUSINESS AND MISCELLANEOUS. Dictionary of Quotations from Ancient and Modern English and Foreign Sources. Selected by Rev. James Wood. Octavo, pp. 668. New York: Frederick Warne & Co. $2.50.

The Rev. James Wood has compiled a work which deserves to rank very high in the class to which it belongs. It is espe cially comprehensive, embracing phrases, mottoes, maxims, proverbs, definitions, aphorisms." etc. These quotations. while chosen from ancient as well as modern writers of all countries, have been selected with special reference to the problems and subjects most prominent in our on days. Foreign bits are usually given in the original tongue, with an En glish translation. The publishers have given us a pleasant and convenient volume.

Gibb's Route and Reference Book of the United States and Canada. Octavo, pp. 251. New York: Gibb Bros. & Moran. $5.

Business men are already favorably acquainted with this production. The edition for the current year furnishes relia ble information in map form_concerning routes and rates be tween the principal cities and towns of the United States and the provinces of Quebec and Ontario. In tabular form it gives matter relative to the hotel accommodations of these places, their populations and a classified, numerical list of their busi ness houses. To the ordinary as well as to the commercial traveler it offers a very substantial service.

Elements of Life Insurance. By Miles Menander Dawson. 12mo, pp. 163. Chicago: Independent Printing & Publishing Co. $2.

Mr. Dawson seems to have given an intelligent and suffi ciently detailed treatment, mainly from a practical business standpoint, to a subject in which most mature, intelligent people are interested. He speaks most directly to those be ginning to study life insurance as a profession.

An Account of Bellevue Hospital. With a Catalogue of the Medical and Surgical taff from 1736 to 1894 Edited by Robert J. Carlisle, M.D. Octavo, pp. 389° New York: The Society of the Alumni of Bellevue. $3.

"Bellevue" is a name familiar to most intelligent people throughout the country and claims preference as the designation of the oldest hospital now existing in the United States. A sketch of its growth and present work occupies some hun dred pages of this volume, which is completed by a catalogue of the medical and surgical staff from 1736 to 1894. Portraits of eminent men connected with the hospital and illustrations of some of its buildings and rooms add to the appearance of a book worthy of the great institution which it represents.
