" The whole of the Masonic fraternity owe a deep debt of gratitude as well as hearty support in his enterprise , to Bro . G . Kenning , for the sp irit which he elisplays in connection with publications intended for the use of the members of the various mystic orders . Chief amongst his numerous publications is undoubtedly 'The Cosmopolitan Masonic Calendar , Diary , and Pocket tnat

Book , ' which is an invariably welcome annual , ana for 1879 is in some respects superior to those of former years , inasmuch as there is not only more extensive information , but one or two features of a novel kind . As a Masonic book of reference it has no equal , and every Mason ought to possess a copy , as he will thus be able to ' see at a glance , ' ( as Mr . Toole would say ) , a complete

list of the lodges and other Masonic orders in every corner of the glube . The compilation of such a work must have been one of the greatest difficulty , but the publisher , justly proud uf his ' Cusmo , ' has evidently exercised the greatest care in connection therewith . Information which can nowhere else be found is here presented must readily , and Bro . Kenning is again to be complimented on his model Calendar . "—Liverpool Mercury , Dec . 23 , 18 7 8 .

N THE PRESS . POST FREE 7 i > "A FREEMASON , " An Extract from the Works of Zschokke . Translated from the German by BRO . ERNEST E . WULFF . This little Brochure sets forth , in a lively and entertaining manner , most excellent arguments in favour of Freemasonry in its social and benevolent aspects , as against the opinions and prejudices ( not always expressed ) of many worthy people . The " Dramatis Personre , " are Dr . Solomon Wiseman , who , as may be surmised from bis name , is the Champion of Freemasonry , and a Family of Quakers , and it will be found that the arguments of the Doctor , so eloquently expressed , led the worthy Q uaker in the end to admit that be too , in a certain sense , was a Freemason .
