HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH POOR LAW. Vols. I. and II. In Connection with the Legislation and other circumstances affecting the Condition of the People. By Sir GEORGE NICHOLLS, K.C.B., Poor Law Commissioner and Secretary to the Poor Law Board. New Revised Edition, with a Biography and Portrait of the Author. 2 Vols., 308.

"This new edition of Nicholls' History of the English Poor Law' will be thoroughly appreciated by a large circle of readers, including students of several of the social sciences. The present edition is moreover a fine piece of bookmaking, and, with the third volume, which brings the history down to date, will constitute a work indispensable to those interested in the social history of the century. Not only legislation strictly applying to the poor is considered, but much social legislation of a related character. The work as a whole is valuable to students because it is a complete account, within well defined limits, of one of the largest and most important series of experiments in social legislation of which there is any record. There are few works of a general character to compare with Nicholls, and there are none that give a more concrete and faithful record of events with constant reference to contemporaneous and official records."—Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science.

POOR LAW CONFERENCES, 1898–99. Annual Volume of the Proceedings of the Central and District Poor Law Conferences, held from April, 1898, to February, 1899, with the Papers read and Discussion thereon, and Report of Central Committee. Portrait. Demy 8vo, cloth, 700 pages. 128.

The following are the subjects in brief of the more important Papers contained in the volume :-Boardingout, Causes of Pauperism, Duties of Guardians, Emigration, Epileptics, Imbeciles, Indoor Relief, Local Taxation, Nursing, Old Age Pensions, Out-Relief, Powers of Guardians, Unemployed, Vagrancy, Way Ticket System, Workhouses. PEOPLE'S BANKS. A Record of Social and Economic Success. By HENRY W. WOLFF. Second Edition, Revised and Enlarged. Demy 8vo, cloth. 108. net.

"We may confidently refer those who desire information on the point to the book with which Mr. Wolff has provided us. It will be a most useful thing if it is widely read."-The Athenæum.

"The schemes which have worked so well in Germany and Italy may need adapting to English circumstances, but the effort is well worth making, and this most interesting volumne points the way to its probable ultimate success."-Daily Telegraph.

Some recent Modifications of our Rating 6d.

System. By W. M. J. WILLIAMS.

"Those who hold the view that the action which has been taken by Parliament during the latter part of the present century in granting relief to Local Taxation from the Imperial Revenue has been wrong and indefensible will find their case very ably and clearly stated in this pamphlet by Mr. W. M. J. Williams."-Local Government Chronicle.

THE COST OF MUNICIPAL TRADING. By DIXON H. DAVIES. A Paper read before the Society of Arts, the Attorney-General, Sir Richard Webster, G.C.M.G., Q.C., M.P., in the Chair, containing the Discussion thereon, and five Explanatory Diagrams. 28.

"Carlyle, in his usual epigrammatic style, once said: You will have some people wrong on everything, and all the people wrong on something, but you will not get all the people wrong on everything,' and this booklet is a good illustration of the situation. Mr. Davies certainly makes out a plausible case for prohibiting the development of municipal trading when he points to the enormous local indebtedness of the country. The paper is in some respects a strong indictment of municipal mismanagement, and it is well worth careful study."*

-Local Government Chronicle.

HOW THE ENGLISH WORKMAN LIVES. Being the Experiences and Reflections of a German Coal-Miner (Ernst Duckershoff) in England. Translated by C. H. d'E. LEPPINGTON. Cr. 8vo. 18.

The author, who shares the life of the English workman, is thus peculiarly qualified to present a true and unprejudiced account of the conditions and social life of the British workman. Writing for a German, not an English public, he allows himself to accentuate positive ameliorations in the life of our masses with a frankness which an English writer, bent on reforming it altogether, might deem scarcely opportune.
