occurred in every part of the body. In fact it is a complete expose 1 of what a com- 

 plete and accurate autopsy should be, the observance of which is oftener followed 

 in the breach than in the actuality. Part II., which includes 134 pat;es, deals with 

 the treatment of the material. This is a very important part of the work, as it gives 

 explicit directions in regard to the instruments to use, stains and staining methods, 

 drawing, the preservation of specimens, hardening methods, in fact, of all those 

 technical points connected with practical pathological microscopy. The examina- 

 tion of fresh specimens, injections, methods fixing specimens as well as special 

 staining methods are taken up. In fact, space forbids us to give the entire, which 

 are most valuable in every detail. St. Loui* Med cal and surgical Journal. 



WATSON. Tables for the Calculation of Simple or Compound Interest 

 and Discount and the Averaging of Accounts. The Values of 

 Annuities^ Leases, Interest in Estates and the Accumulations and 

 Values of Investments at Simple or Compound Interest for all Rates 

 and Periods; also Tables for the Conversion of Securities and Value 

 of Stocks and Bonds. With full Explanation for Use. By James 

 C. Watson, Ph.D., LL.D. Quarto. Cloth, $2.50. 



A book most valuable to bankers, brokers, trustees, guardians, judges, lawyers, 

 accountants, and all concerned in the computation of interest, the division and set- 

 tlement of estates, the negotiation of securities, or the borrowing and lending of 

 money, is the above work of the late Professor James C. Watson, formerly Director 

 of the Observatories and Professor of Astronomy at the Universities of Michigan 

 and Wibconsin, and Actuary of the Michigan Mutual Life Insurance Company. 



It contains, in addition to the usual tables for the calculation of simple or com- 

 pound interest and discount, many tables of remarkable value, not found elsewhere, 

 for the averaging of accoutns the values of annuities, leases, interests in estates, 

 and the accumulations and values of investments; also tables for the conversion of 

 securities, and the values of stocks and bonds. 



There are also given very full and clear explanations of the principles involved in 

 financial transactions, and a great variety of miscellaneous examples are worked 

 out in detail to illustrate the problems arising in interest, discount, partial payments, 

 averaging of accounts, present values, annuities of different kinds, annual payments 

 for a future expectation (as in life insurance), or for a sinking fund, conversion of 

 securities, values of stocks and bonds, and life interests. 



This book was issued from the press under the author's careful supervision. 

 Professor Watson was noted for his clear insight into problems involving computa- 

 tions, and also for his wonderful ability in presenting the method of solution of such 

 problems in a plain and simple manner. The varied array of practical examples 

 given in connect on with his "Table " shows these facts in a remarkable manner. 

 This book provides, for those least expert in calculations, the means of avoiding 

 mistakes likely to occur; and for the man engrossed in the cares of business, the 

 means of making for himself, with entire accuracy, the calculation which he may 

 need, at the moment when it is needed.
