BOOK-NOTES. 



— The Philadelphia Social Science Asso- 

 ciation will shortly publish a monograph by 

 Prof. E. J. James, of the University of Penn- 

 sylvania, entitled ' Chairs of Pedagogics in 

 our Colleges and Universities.' 



— In the article entitled ' Where Shall We 

 Spend Our Summer ? ' which Gen. A. W. 

 Greely, chief signal officer, will contribute 

 to the April Scribner's, he shows (as far as 

 one can predict from the series of observa- 

 tions made by the Signal Service of the Army 

 for many years) which will be the three hot- 

 test days of the coming summer, east of the 

 Mississippi River. 



— Messrs. Lee & Shepard, Boston, will 

 soon publish the following books : ' Chips 

 from a Teacher's Workshop ; or, Educational 

 Topics of the Day,' by L. R. Klemm, Ph.D. ; 

 and a new edition of ' Pre-Glacial Man and 

 the Aryan Race,' which was first issued a 

 few weeks ago, by Lorenzo Burge. 



— The D. Lothrop Company announces 

 the preparation and speedy publication of a 

 series of graphic historical narrations by 

 popular authors, telling the story of the 

 States of the American Union from their 

 earliest beginnings to the present day. ' The 

 Story of the States ' will be issued under the 

 editorial supervision of Elbridge S. Brooks. 

 Each volume will be fully illustrated with 

 designs by L. J. Bridgman. The initial vol- 

 umes will appear in the spring of 1888. New 

 York, Ohio, and Louisiana are now nearly 

 ready. The volumes already arranged are, 

 ' The Story of California,' by Noah Brooks ; 

 ' The Story of Massachusetts,' by Edward 

 Everett Hale; 'The Stoiy of Virginia,' by 

 Marion Harland ; ' The Story of Louisiana,' 

 by Maurice Thompson ; ' The Story of New 

 York,' by Elbridge S. Brooks ; ' The Story 

 of Ohio,' by Alexander Black ; ' The Story 

 of Missouri,' by Jessie Benton Fremont ; 

 ' The Story of Vermont,' by John Heaton ; 

 'The Story of Texas,' by E. S. Nadal ; 'The 

 Story of Maryland,' by John R. Coryell ; ' The 

 Story of Colorado,' by Charles M. Skinner ; 

 ' The Story of Kentucky,' by Emma M. Con- 

 nelly ; ' The Story of the District of Colum- 

 bia,' by Edmund Alton ; ' The Story of 

 Maine,' by Almon Gunnison ; ' The Story of 

 Pennsylvania,' by Olive Risley Seward ; ' The 

 Story of Connecticut,' by Sidney Luska. 



— Mr. Kennan's Siberian papers, illustrated 

 by Mr. G. A. Frost, who accompanied Mr. 

 Kennan on his trip through Asiatic Russia, 

 will begin in the May Century. Their ap- 

 pearance has been deferred on account of 

 the author's desire to group in prehminary 

 papers — the last of which will be in the 

 April Century — an account of the conditions 

 and events in Russia directly related to the 

 exile system.
