"LAY DOWN YOUR ARMS.55 (DIE WAFFEN NIEDER.)

The Autobiography of Martha Yon Tilling. By Bertha Von Suttner. Authorized translation by T. Holmes. Revised by the Authoress. Crown 8vo, 445 pages, $1.75.

LONGMANS, GREEN & CO., London and New York. This is a translation, with the sanction and co-operation of the author

ess, of a romance which has obtained a great success on the Continent under the name of ?'Die Waffen Nieder." Baroness Suttner's object in this story is to awake the atteL.tion of all thinking persons to the evils of the present condition of the Continent of Europe, and to the possibility of finding a remedy for it in a voluntary establishment of arbitration tribu nals and mutual disarmament.

?? This remarkable work is producing a great effect upon the Continent of Europe. It has already had a wonderful run, and has been translated into almost every European language. ... No more truthful picture of war in all its hideousness has ever been painted?it is equal to some of those marvellous scenes from Erckmann's stories or to the appalling photo graphic accuracy of Zola's 'D?b?cle.' . . . It may safely be said that there is not a dull page in the book."? Christian World.

" It is a book of intense realistic power, so much so as to explain the debates that have been held over the autobiographic verity of its narrative. . . . It is as vivid in its realism as Verestschagin's paintings."?Inde pendent, New York.

"It is a strong story and presents the question of disarmament in Europe in its most alluring, as well as its most commanding phrases."

?Critic, New York. For sale also by The American Peace Society.
