NEW REVISED EDITION.

BULFINCH'S AGE OF FABLE.

BULFINCH'S AGE OF FABLE OR BEAUTIES OF MYTHOLOGY. New Revised Edition by Rev. J. LOUGHRAN SCOTT. This new edition, while retaining all the features of previous revisions, has a number of new features which make it superior to those, or any other works on Mythology yet published. 524 pages. Nearly 200 illustrations. Crown octavo, $1.25.

Pronunciation of Proper Names.-All proper names are printed in black type, syllabified, and accentuated.

Poetical Quotations.-The greatest care has been exercised to select nothing save the best. Over one hundred authors have contributed, and four hundred and fortyfour quotations have been made.

Illustrations. Of the nearly two hundred illustrations, the largest part are reproductions from the best specimens of ancient and modern art. Care has been taken to procure only those recognized by critics as the best productions of the masters.

Index and Dictionary. The index has been extended so as to meet all ordinary demands for a dictionary of Mythology. This addition thus becomes of special value to the student, either for study or reference.

Later Discoveries.-The discovery of the Rosetta Stone opened up the whole field of Egyptian Mythology, and here, for the first time, the result is given in connection with the Greek and Roman Myths.

Manufacture. The publisher feels very safe in saying that no Mythology previously offered can be compared with this in points of mechanical execution, choice illustrations, quality of paper, binding, etc., coupled with reasonableness of price.
