BOOKS AT HALF RATES. 



CONCORD LECTURES ON PHILOSOPHY. 



This was the first volume of reports of the lectures delivered at the school at Concord, 

 Mass., and contains elaborate reports of all the lectures, poems, etc., of the year 1882 ; and 

 also a brief history of the school. The volume was approved by the faculty, and each report 

 was revised by the author ; so that the whole is authorized and authentic. It is handsomely 

 printed on fine paper with broad margins. Only 1,000 copies were made. 168 pages. Royal 

 octavo. Cloth binding. St. 75, postpaid. 



WALTHAM: PAST AND PRESENT. 



This is the only history ever published of the attractive city of Waltham, Mass., with its 

 several gigantic manufacturing establishments, and many historical places. The volume is a 

 comprehensive history, and a complete description. The thirty-eight illustrations are real 

 photographs, taken expressly for this volume, and not to be had otherwise. These photo- 

 graphs alone would, ordinarily, cost more than the price of the volume. 120 pages. Cloth 

 binding. $2.50, postpaid.

A memorial volume of the learned professor, who was identified with Harvard University 

 for half a century, and whose name as mathematician, astronomer, and scholar has not been

 persons who were his intimate friends, including Oliver Wendell Holmes, James Freeman 

 Clarke, Thomas Hill, Andrew Preston Peabody, Cyrus A. Bartol, and others. Cloth 

 binding. $1, postpaid.
