Perhaps the most striking feature Of the
July Century is the long-expected debate
on 1.-THE Single Tax" by Edward Atkinson
and Henry George. The first of two papers
on Provence" describes and brilliantly
illustrates an unhackneved region of the
Old World: that part of France which is
like Italy. Miss Preston, who wrote the

verse of THE Armorer's Errand," pre-
hminary to the storming of Fort Ticon-
deroga; Laura E. Richards and Jane Ellis

Pulpit, gives side view of the same insplr-
ing subject The sports of summer are
prominent Fl. w. Henshaw contributes q
study of the commoner American hawks,
which are described and pictured in such a
way as to leave no excuse for the ignorant
nounced by the writer. A most natural
aud amusing little story is that by H. H.
