OBSERVATIONS ON WOMEN'S SUF-
     FRAGE. By Viscount   HAnnanroN.   Price
One Penny.  Published by the Central Committee
of the National Society for Women's Suffrage, 29,
Parliament-street, London, S.W.
THE HISTORY OF WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
     Illustrated with steel engravings.   Edited
by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony,
Matilda Joslyn Gage. Complete in three octavo
volumes. Vols. I. and II. now  ready. Price,
cloth, two pounds.
  The question of Woman  Suffrage, the rights
and status of Woman, has already become one of
the vital political issues of the day; therefore, its
relation to political, social, and teligious questions
should be thbroughly understood.
  The Phila. Evening Bulletin says: The magnitude of
this'history prevents us from giving even a sketch of it,
but we simply and honestly say that it is a noblo pro-
duction, honourable to its editors and to its ublject, audl
fairly zepresenting the characters of the really great
women, like Mrs. Stone, Lucretia Mott, Harriet Martineau,
and scores of others in England and this country, who
made the claim of equal rights of suffrage a part of their
political and religious creeds.
  The N. Y. Observer says: The able editors present
this work as an arsenal of facts, to which all interested in
the subject may resort and find whatever is worth knowing
in regard to the movement. The history of such a move.
ment is full of interest, and while the material is at hand
and easily gathered, the editors have done well to gather
it into these thick volumes, and preserve it a a part of
the record of this remarkable age. The portraits of women
here presented make us acquainted with the features of
some who have become famous.  -
