But the most significant of the triumphs of the first year of this remarkable dictionary, and themost gratifying to Americans, is the wonderful reception given the work by the most exacting of the linguis- tic critics in England. Especially is this so when we remember how reluctant, naturally enough, the English .are to look to a foreign country for a dictionary of their own tongue. It is something extraordin- ary for an American work of this kind to elicit words of such enthusi- astic praise as those uttered by such scholars of the Oxford University as Professor Sayee and Max Muller, and well known scholars of other English universities, and from such journalistic critics as those of the London Standard, Saturday Review, Notes and Queries, Nature, London Times, Westminster Review, Atheneum, Mark Lane Express, Scotsman, Liverpool Post, St. James' Budget. The latter closes his critical review with the following superlative indorsement : PRIEST AND PA€tISHIONER. MISS MAGGIE MELODY, OF HAMILTON, USED DR.
