Afterthoughts of Foreign Travel, IN HISTORIC LANDS AND CAPITAL CITIES. 
BY SULLIVAN HOLMAN MCCOLLESTER.

A book of rare excellence.  One of the few in the great flood of books of travel that are worth reading.  Fourth edition. 12mo, cloth, $1.50.

Anna Maria’s Housekeeping.

By MRS. S.D.  POWER.  During the appearance the past two years of these papers in WIDE AWAKE, the editors were besieged by letters from housekeepers, both old and young, asking for their publication in permanent form.  On the one hand they have been declared by trained housewives to be the most helpful and complete domestic literature, and on the other hand, men and women of letters have warmly praised their literary excellence.  The publishers, therefore, confidently offer the volume to the public as a standard work upon practical domestic economy. Housekeeper’s Library, 16mo, extra cloth,$1.00.

An Hour with Miss Streator.

By PANSY.  An intensely interesting little monograph which will be a genuine inspiration to all faithful teachers, while to the thoughtless disparagers of such toilers it will bear most useful lessons. Paper, 6 cents.

American Explorations in the Ice Zones.

Early American Voyages made in search of the Northwest Passage.  Explorations in the Arctic Zone by Lieut.  DeHaven, Dr. Kane, Commodore Rodgers, Capt.  Hall, Lieut.  Schwatka and Lieut.  DeLong; Wrangel Land as first reported by Capt.  Long, and a brief account of the U.S.  Expedition to the Antarctic seas under Capt.  Wilkes.  Compiled from official and other sources by PROF.  J.E.  NOURSE, U.S.N.  We have in this volume the work of a scientist and scholar, and at the same time a book of thrilling interest.  It contains all that the public desire to know concerning the subject of which it treats, and must be, for years to come, regarded as the standard work upon Arctic affairs. 8mo, extra cloth, illustrated,$3.00. With circumpolar map,$3.50. Half calf, $6.00.

Bremen Lectures.

On Fundamental, Living, Religious Questions by various eminent European Divines.  Translated by REV.  D. HEAGLE, with an Introduction by REV.  ALVAH HOVET, D.D., President of Newton Theological Institution.  Of this volume, as touching some of the great religious questions of the day, the translator well says it would be difficult to find another work wherein is included in so brief compass so much of that which with the present helps from science and thought, should be said on these several themes. Third edition. 12mo, $1.50.

China.

By ROBT.  K. DOUGLAS, of the British Museum, and Professor of Chinese at King’s College, London, with revisions by Yan Phou Lee.  The latest addition to Lothrop’s Library of Entertaining History, and a work which is not only graphic and interesting in style and matter, but which bears the marks of authenticity and scholarship on every page. 12mo, cloth, $1.50.
