<p>We find on our table quite an exhaustive treatise on various subjects, written in <abbr>Mr.</abbr> Websters well-known, lucid, and piquant style. There is not a dull line between the covers of the book. The range of subjects is wide, and the treatment light and easy without being flippant. A valuable feature of the work is the arranging of the articles in alphabetical order, thus facilitating the finding of any particular word desired. <abbr>Mr.</abbr> Websters vocabulary is large, and he always uses the right word in the right place. <abbr>Mr.</abbr> Websters work is thorough and we predict that he will be heard from again.</p> <p>We find on our table quite an exhaustive treatise on various subjects, written in <abbr>Mr.</abbr> Websters well-known, lucid, and piquant style.

<p>This new book has the decided merit of being non-sensational. In these days of erratic and ultra-imaginative literature of the modern morbid self-analytical school it is a relief to peruse a book with so little straining after effect, so well balanced, and so pure in sentiment. It is a book that a man can place in the hands of the most innocent member of his family with the utmost confidence. Its material is healthy, and its literary style excellent, as it adheres to the methods used with such thrilling effect by <abbr>Mr.</abbr> Webster in his famous dictionary, viz: alphabetical arrangement.</p> <p>This new book has the decided merit of being non-sensational.
