=THE CHURCH IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE BEFORE A.D. 170.= By W. M. RAMSAY, M.A., D.C.L., Professor of Humanity in the University of Aberdeen. Fourth Edition. With Maps and Illustrations, 8vo, cloth, 12_s._

"This volume is the most important contribution to the study of early Church history which has bean published in this country since the great work of Bishop Lightfoot on the Apostolic fathers. It is, too, unless our memory fails us, without a rival in any foreign country."--_Guardian_.

=THE HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY OF THE HOLY LAND.= By GEORGE ADAM SMITH, D.D., Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament Exegesis, Free Church College, Glasgow. With Six Maps, specially prepared. Fifth Thousand. 8vo, cloth, 15_s._

"Professor Smith is well equipped at all points for this work. He is abreast of the latest findings of Scripture exegesis, and of geographical survey, and of archæological exploration; and he has himself travelled widely over Palestine. The value of the work is incalculably increased by the series of geographical maps, the first of the kind representing the whole lift and the of the land by gradations of colour."--_Scotsman_.

"A very noteworthy contribution to the study of sacred history, based upon the three indispensable conditions of personal acquaintance with the land, a study of the explorations, discoveries, and decipherments ... and the employment of the results of Biblical criticism."--_Times_.

=THE ASCENT OF MAN.= By HENRY DRUMMOND. Twenty-first Thousand. Net, 7_s._ 6_d._

"Worked out with characteristic ardour and courage. The technical quality of the book is of a high order. In none of his works is Mr. Drummond's literary skill more strikingly manifested. The style--metaphorical, allusive, picturesque--has even more of the writer's wonted grace and facility, and his command of analogy has never been employed with better effect, and productive of more varied and suggestive illustrations."--_Saturday Review_.
