Sidellelits on Biblical Chronology, Part i 



By OLAF A. TOFFTEEN, Professor of Semitic Languages and Old Testament 



Literature in the Western Theological Seminary 



250 pages, 8vo, cloth 



This is an examination of the data furnished by the monuments bearing on biblical his- 

 tory and constitutes an elaboration of the first chapter in Anckni Chronology. W'Mt it 

 would be perhaps too much to say that Dr. Toffteen reaches conclusions altogether new, he 

 has displayed the same independence of research and reasoning which charactenzes his treat- 

 ment of the broader subject of "ancient chronolog>%" The result is an able, fearless, and 

 scholarly statement of views concerning historical data of the Bible. 



Value and Distribution 



By HERBERT J. DAVENPORT, Assistant Professor of Political Economy in 



the University of Chicago 



500 pages, 8vo, cloth 



The author thus defines his position in his preface : " Since the time of Adam Smith, 

 economic theory has been in possession of doctrines enough for a reasonably complete, cx)n- 

 sistent, and logical system of thought-if only those doctrines had been, with a wise eclec- 

 ticism, properly combined and articulated. The emphasis in the present volume upon the 

 entrepreneur point of view in the computation of costs and in the analysis of the process by 

 which distributive shares are assigned, has nothing new in it; it was necessary only that the 

 pomt of view be clearly distinguished, consistently held, and fuEy developed.
