cience, and discusses means for its reinvigoration. "A remarkable and deeply interesting book, showing courage and independence of thought combined with keen human sympathies, and which should make a wide appeal."--M. J. E. The Free Press BY HILAIRE BELLOC _Crown 8vo._ _2s. 6d. net._ _Postage 4d._ The purpose of this essay is to discuss the evils of the great modern Capitalist Press, its function in vitiating and misinforming opinion, and in putting power into ignoble hands; its correction by the formation of small independent organs, and their probably increasing effect. Rebels and Reformers BY ARTHUR AND DOROTHEA PONSONBY _Crown 8vo._ WITH 12 PORTRAITS. _6s. net._ This is the first book to bring within the reach of young people and workers who have little time for historical study the lives of such notable figures as Savonarola, Giordano Bruno, Lloyd Garrison, and Tolstoy, heroes of thought rather than of action.

PENTY _Crown 8vo._ _3s. 6d. net._ "A wide challenge to the progress of the modern world; if some of the more promising patriots would read it carefully they would think the work before them much more worth doing."--_New Witness._ The World Rebuilt BY WALTER WALSH, D.D. _Crown 8vo._ _Stiff Paper Covers, 2s. 6d. net._ The Scottish Women's Hospital at the French Abbey of Royaumont BY ANTIONIO DE NAVARRO _Demy 8vo._ FULLY ILLUSTRATED. _7s. 6d. net._ This work represents a record of the only hospital in France run entirely by women: an abandoned abbey, built by Louis IX in 1228, transformed into an up-to-date hospital of 400 beds at the beginning of the
