"The physician in his round of visits is made aware of a woful lack of knowledge of the laws of health.

II. Evolution of Man and Christianity. By the Rev. HOWARD MACQUEARY. 12mo, cloth, $1.75. "There can be little doubt,' says Prof. Le Conte, that we are now on the eve of the greatest change in traditional views that has taken place since the birth of Christianity. This change means not a readjustment of details only, but a reconstruction of Christian theology. It is because I am firmly convinced of the truth of these profound words that I have written this book. Evolution is in the air,' and its fundamental tenets are being accepted (perhaps unconsciously) by all classes of minds. It behooves us, then, as religious teachers to recognize this fact, and adjust our theology accordingly."-From the Preface. III.
