NEW EDMONS.—Prontelheus Unbound, and other Poems (1820). By P. B.

Shelley. (The Clarendon Press. 2s. 6d. net.)—Lepers. By John Jackson. (Marshall Brothers. 3s. 6d. net.)—A history of thirty-four years' work carried on by the Mission to Lepers in India and the East from 1876 down to the present time.—We have received Haydn's Dictionary of Dates (Ward, Lock, and Co., 21s. net), which now appears in a twenty-fifth edition, " containing the history of the world to Midsummer, 1910." This is, it must be owned, a "large order," but we know of no volume in which this very big promise is so well kept. But Haydn's Dictionary needs no description.
