Supplementary Papers of the American School of Classical Studies at

Rome. (Macmillan and Co.)—These papers are four in number: "The Advancement of Officers in the Roman Army," "Roman Monumental Arches" (amply illustrated), the "Palimp- sest of Cicero De Be Publiea" (in the Vatican Library), "Inscrip- tions from Rome and Central Italy." All are interesting, but for the general student the first is the most valuable. The subject is obscure, and light upon it is very welcome.
