 Its arguments are its pictures, showing at a glance more plainly the matters 

 in hand than pages of written description." Baltimore American.

~P$SA YS ON THE FLOA TING MA TTER OF 

 ^C, THE AIR, in Relation to Putrefaction and Infection. 

 By Prof. JOHN TYNDALL, F. R. S. i2mo. Cloth, $1.50. 



"These essays raise a good deal of new and old dust and dirt to public 

 view, and are very conclusive in their proof of the vicious and destructive 

 consequences of the same. . . . To the wide-awake, common mind a strong 

 ray of sunlight shining through a keyhole into the quietest and cleanest 

 room, will reveal pretty much all needed evidence that most ' good air,' like 

 'pure water,' is very much alive. . . . The work is lucid and convincing, 

 yet not prolix or pedantic, but popular and really enjoyable." Phila* 

 delphia Times.
