The Principles of ^Taxation. 



By the Late David A. Wells. i2mo. Cloth, $2.00. 

 The purpose of the distinguished economist in writing this book was to describe a science of taxation 

 as the subjsct presented itself to him. BeHeving that the relations of private properly to the Govern- 

 ment and the responsibility of the Government to citizens were susceptible of definite formulation, Dr. 

 Wells endeavored in this most important volume to formulate these relations and to place the subject 

 of taxation upon a scientific basis. 



The Comparative Physiology and Morphology of Animals. 



By Prof. Joseph Le Conte. Illustrated. i2mo. Cloth. 

 The work of Darwin on the derivation of species and the descent of man awakened a new interest in 

 the lower animals, and furnished additional evidence of their close kinship with ourselves. A fresh field 

 of study was thus opened up, embracing the likenesses and differences of action as well as structure 

 found throughout the animal kingdom. In this work Prnfe.=sor Le Conte gives us, in his well-known 

 clear and simple style and with the aid of numerous illustrations, an interesting outline of these 

 similarities and variations of function as displayed among the various classes of animals from the lowest 

 to the highest, man included. __
