untry women interested in their religion, following similar lines of work and sympathetic in ways of thought.... The papers in the volume are all of interest.--_Detroit Free Press._ The Jewish Publication Society of America has done a good work in gathering up and issuing in a well-printed volume the "Papers of the Jewish Women's Congress."--_Cleveland Plain-Dealer._ Bound in Cloth. Price, postpaid, $1 OLD EUROPEAN JEWRIES BY DAVID PHILIPSON, D.D. =OPINIONS OF THE PRESS= A good purpose is served in this unpretending little book, ... which contains an amount and kind of information that it would be difficult to find elsewhere without great labor. The author's subject is the Ghetto, or Jewish quarter in European cities.--_Literary World_ (Boston). It is interesting ... to see the foundation of ... so much fiction that is familiar to us--to go, as the author here has gone in one of his trips abroad, into the remains of the old Jewries.--_Baltimore Sun._ His book is a careful study limited to the official Ghetto.--_Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette._ Out-of-the-way information, grateful to the delver in antiquities, forms the staple of a work on the historic Ghettos of Europe--_Milwaukee Sentinel._ He tells the story of the Ghettos calmly, sympathetically and conscientiously, and his deductions are in harmony with those of all other intelligent and fair-minded men.--_Richmond Dispatch._ A striking study of the results of a system that has left its mark upon the Jews of all countries.--_San Francisco Chronicle._ He has carefully gone over all published accounts and made discriminating use of the publications, both recent and older, on his subject, in German, French and English.--_Reform Advocate_ (Chicago).
