confined within a short or untechnical discourse."--_The Manchester
Guardian_.
13. +THE PRINCIPLES OF ELECTRICITY+. By NORMAN R. CAMPBELL, M.A.

a model of its kind. He takes next to nothing for granted."--_Sunday
Times_.

in a small space, being clear and abreast of current knowledge."--_The
Athenæum_.

admirable survey will give it a certain authoritativeness for the
general reader."--_Daily News_.

Chronicle_.
39. +MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS+. By E. O'NEILL, M.A.

most lie freely."--_Daily Express_.
47. +WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE+. By M. G. FAWCETT, LL.D.
"Mrs. Fawcett's admirably concise and fair-minded historical sketch of
the women's suffrage movement. We could hardly ask for a better
summary of events and prospects."--_Daily News_.
51. +SHAKESPEARE+. By Professor C. H. HERFORD, Litt.D.
"Well worth a place alongside Professor Raleigh's book in the 'English
Men of Letters.' ... Sets a high note and retains it without
effort."--_Observer_.

taste."--_Daily News_.

is beginning the study of Dante, or indeed any one who is interested
generally in the early process of European literature, for the process
is here admirably analysed."--_The Manchester Guardian_.
