Williams (Monier), Professor of Sanscrit in the East India College. Sakoontala; or, the Lost Ring. From the Sanscrit of Kalidasa. Limited large paper edition of about 100 copies on Japan paper, with head-pieces and borders in color.

Library edition, 12mo, cloth.

[Several editions of this great Indian drama have appeared abroad, but this is, we think, the first attempt to bring it to the notice of American readers. The best evidence of its appreciation by scholars is perhaps shown in Goethe's lines: "Would'st thou the young year's blossoms and the fruits of its decline, And all by which the soul is charmed, enraptured, feasted, fed? Would'st thou the earth and heaven itself in one sole name combine? I name thee, O Sakoontalá! and all at once is said."

History of Painting. Ancient,

Early Christian and Medieval.

["The work is a great treatise, broad as art itself in scope, scrupulously faithful in treatment, and founded upon scholarship the profoundest and most admirably balanced."-N. Y. Evening Post.

The amazing industry and learning of Professor Woltman is all his own; so is his fidelity to history as well as his painstaking conscientiousness. All this combined makes Woltman's work the best manual and the best reference book on the history of Painting to be found in the English language.]

King among books is a Cyclopedia. What is the argument in favor of buying? It is the high argument of reason and common sense, and is three-cornered. First, and least, is its convenience. You can't take time to run to a library whenever you want a little out-of-the-way information. Keep a well-filled store of it in your own house. It would take all the textbooks in a school to answer the questions that a single good Cyclopedia will answer. Second. It is a great commercial arbitrator. A lawyer recently won an important case by bringing his Cyclopedia into court.

It was a good witness. It spoke with authority. The men that write a Cyclopedia are the same that write the lawyers' books, and the physicians' books, and all the great works that have a voice. Its great realms of knowledge can be ploughed and cropped. Buy it, then : it's business. Third. It is a great educator. Buy it for the children, and let them grow up on it. Buy it, and then let them ask all the questions they want to. It will answer them all. Children grow tall that are fed on knowledge, and the horizon widens as we uplift. King among books is a Cyclopedia.
