Dear Sirs-
In order that some scientific articles by recognized
authorities, tihich hitherto have been, inaccessible to rare students

?re have been publishing a series of Scientific Ifenoirs. They consist
of articles found only in rare boohs, or never hitherto published in
English or for sone other reason difficult of access. Under the
editorial supervision of Dr. J. S. Ames of Johns Ilophins University,
these valuable treatises have been brought out in thin octavo volumes,
substantially bound in convenient form, with appropriate notes,
explanations, a ad corrections. Each booh contains either a complete
article or several papers on closely related subjects, and the care

series, with the prices of those already published. Within the past
