A huge wagon, packed and piled with the golden sheaves of many
years of thorough Bible research, is this precious volume. It is
not a commentary. It is not a dictionary. It is not a series of dry
scraps on philology or lexicography. It is not a cyclopedia for
lazy ministers to crib sermons from. It is just like no other work
on the New Testament that we can find elsewhere, and therefore it
fills a niche that has hitherto been left empty. The very things
which a young minister—and many an older one, also—ought to know
about the chief _words_ in his New Testament, he will be able to
learn in this affluent volume.

THE SELF-REVELATION OF GOD.
By SAMUEL HARRIS, D.D., LL.D, Professor of
Systematic Theology in Yale College.
8vo, uniform with the “Philosophical Basis of Theism.” $3.50.
“Such a work is not brought out in a day, but is the growth
of years of professional study and reflection. Few books on
Apologetics have been recently produced that will be more
influential and formative upon the mind of the theological or
philosophical student, or more useful.”—Prof. W’M. G. T. SHEDD,
D.D., _in the Presbyterian Review_.
“We do not know a better work among recent publications than this
one for building up old hopes and giving a new strength to one’s
faith. The book is thoroughly evangelic, fresh, and well wrought
out.”—BISHOP HURST, _in Northwestern Christian Advocate_.
“The extent of literary, philosophical and theological learning
which the work displays is remarkable. The style is vigorous,
luminous, finished, and sometimes brilliant.”—_Boston Daily
Advertiser._

History of Modern Philosophy.
DESCARTES AND HIS SCHOOL.
By KUNO FISCHER. Translated by J. P. GORDY. Edited by NOAH PORTER.
8vo. $3.50.
“It is difficult to exaggerate the importance of this work. The
author is remarkable for the lucidity, order, and thoroughness
of his expositions, and is by far the best historian of modern
philosophy.”—_Boston Beacon._
SOME PROBLEMS OF PHILOSOPHY.
By ARCHIBALD ALEXANDER,
Professor of Philosophy in Columbia College.
12mo. $1.00.
“For clearness and profundity of thought, deftness of presentation,
and lucidity of style, Professor Alexander’s book is not surpassed
by any philosophical work of similar scope in the language. It is
so simple, frank, and straightforward, that it will appeal to a
large class of thoughtful men.”—_Science._
