cite Place, New York.
The progress of natural science has
been not without effect upon the data of
the moral and intellectual sciences. The

nature. The author aims to present
scientific conception of Morality in a
popular form, and with view to pract-
cal application rather than to discuss
theoretical difficulties. His views are
in full harmony with those which, max
ing Exception for few back eddies in
the stream Of modern thought, are win
ming their wav to general acceptance
among the more instructed and refec-
tive men Of our day.
