have been long ago provided. The Catholic Dictionary, which appeared in a revised and enlarged form (Kegan Paul, Trench, Trübner & Co. Ltd.) in 1897, is a work of considerable merit; and in Germany a new Kontrovers Lexicon: Konfessionelle Streitfragen zwischen Katholiken und Protestantem, under the editorship of Dr. Jos. Burg, is now in course of publication.

As the present work has been produced under the auspices of the Protestant Reformation Society, questions connected with the Book of Common Prayer had to be specially treated. Many of those questions had necessarily to be viewed from the legal as well as the theological standpoint. Hence it has been necessary to enter into many details which at the present time interest peculiarly the Evangelical members of the Church of England. The advice often given on liturgical points by Mr. J. T. Tomlinson, who is a wellknown expert on all such questions, has been of great advantage, and he has afforded much assistance in the general revision of the work.

The Editors have received valuable help, not only from distinguished personages in the Church of England, but also from many distinguished scholars and theologians belonging to the Churches of Scotland, and to the principal Free Churches of Great Britain and Ireland. The Protestant Dictionary thus affords a practical illustration of the substantial unity which exists on all essential points between the great Churches of the Reformation.

Many able writers on the Protestant side have, from no lack of sympathy but from overpressure of work, been unable to contribute articles. Several who had promised larger assistance have found themselves unable to give it. The list of writers is a large one, and the Editors desire to thank them all heartily for their valuable contributions. The writers are to be held responsible only for their own articles.

The Editors, and the Protestant Reformation Society which they represent, earnestly trust that the publication of the volume may in some measure tend to remove that ignorance and uncertainty on the points at issue between Protestants and Romanists, which, alas, is too common at this critical period of our history.

They hope that the work may to some extent arrest the wave of indefinite religious opinion now spreading over the length and breadth of the land, even among Protestant Churches. They trust that it may enable Protestant preachers, lecturers, and Christians unversed in the Romish controversy, to bear witness to the truth with more power, and to testify in a spirit of love against all Romish errors. Those errors confuse divine verities; and they prevent that exercise of private judgment, which Holy Scripture everywhere assumes to be one of the first duties of man. They tend to weaken personal responsibility, destroy Christian liberty, sap "the virility" of the Nation, and imperil the salvation of souls.
