Ottman, Rev. Ford C. Unfolding of the ages in the Revelation of John. [**]$2. Baker.
Written in an expository style, conciliatory rather than controversial, this work upon Revelation throws a new light upon the symbolism of the book. The author accepts and advocates the theory that “everything from the fourth chapter to the end of the book is still future and will follow the removal of the church from the earth at the appearing of our Lord.”

[*] Our best society. [†]$1.50. Putnam.
“This story narrates the adventures among the rich, vain, and reasonably well-cultivated of New York of a young writer and his nice wife, and contains vivid and veracious pictures of the dinner party, the coaching party, the theatre party, and many other ‘social functions,’ glimpses of literary, artistic, and dramatic ‘sets,’ with a study of the manners of a mannerless age, and a hint or two of its morals.”—N. Y. Times.
[*] “This is not a great novel, nor even a good one, but it counts because the author has caught the real levity of mannerism in that filmy world.”

[*] “Another book in which the comedy of contemporary American society is adroitly set forth and in a unhackneyed way.”
