1897] MICROSCOPICAL JOURNAL. 397 



Publication Announcement. 



The Journal will in 1898 be a 16-]>p. illustrated maga- 

 zine and confined very carefully to the subject of micros- 

 copy, omitting the "contributions to biology." No long 

 articles can be accepted. Abstracts, news, and brief ar- 

 ticles will be sought. Papers on the subject are scattered 

 widely as is shown by our exchanges. A great number 

 of short items and abstracts of articles will be possible. 

 The price of subscription will be restored to one dollar. 



The publication of "The Microscope" will be discontin- 

 ued with this issue and its subscription list turned over 

 to the American Monthly Microscopical Journal. That 

 magazine will be sup[)lied to all those who have been its 

 subscribers. Those who have taken both periodicals will 

 receive the Journal only unless they by [)OSt card or oth- 

 erwise request a discontinuance. We shall treat all our 

 exchanges in the same way.
