    have done much to familiarise the public with the best mode of acting in cases of emergency until professional medical aid can be obtained ;

    and although the proverb defines ' a little knowledge ' as a dangerous thing , ' the general opinion seems to be that the information . thus diffused

    bas been of good service . In the present volume the author takes up almost the same ground as the conductor of the Ambulance Classand gives

    , a series of brief but clear and intelligible hints as to the best means of treating almost all the cases in which it is possible for a non-professional

    hand to be of any avail . The descriptions of the symptoms of the diseases touched upon are remarkably clear , and even if the reader hesitates

    to use the medicines recommended the directions as to the treatment of the patient in other ways cannot fail to be serviceableand may save much

    ability and earnestness . His statement of his adversaries' case is based upon the works of the leading Roman Catholic writersItalian and

    , German , and in no single case does he shrink from giving them the full benefit of a clear expression of their views . Having stated the .

    case thus fairly and fully , the author proceeds to deal seriatim , with the argument a priori for the Papal claims—the argument from possession of the

    Roman Primacy ; and the position of St . Peter in the G-ospel ; and then he sets forth minutely the views of the Fathers and of the early Church

    upon the subject . From the examination of these latter authorities he unhesitatingly affirms that the Church of the first four centuries knew

    absolutely nothing of the Roman claims in their modern form , and hence that we are bound to reject them as unfounded . Remembering that

    it is upon this claim , as the basis of the whole Papacy , that Rome builds up her great superstructure and her intricate system 4 / with all its

    ramifications , the importance of a clear understanding of the history of the subject and of the questions involved is necessarily very greatand

    the present little work , which is marked by great , conciseness and compression , is likely to meet with a very cordial welcome .
