"B-y M-y."—We know of no work on "Economics of the Scriptures." Shakespeare may help you with pertinent tags for economics, as "This sudden making of Christians will raise the price of pork."

"J. R. B——n."—We believe the world is now ripe for your publication, "Charles Chaplin and His Relation to Classical Comedy."
