“There is the genuine ring of Christian manliness in Canon
Freemantle’s ‘Gospel of the Secular Life.’ ... His book is a
strong and earnest plea for practical unity among Christian
denominations; for the supremacy of Christ in the secular life, and
for the grounding of all earthly pursuits upon the firm rock of
Christianity.”—_The Sunday-School Times._
OLD TESTAMENT REVISION.
A Handbook for English Readers. By ALEXANDER ROBERTS, D.D.,
author of “Companion to the Revised Version of the English New

many misapprehensions and convey as much information about the Old
Testament Scriptures.”—_Episcopal Register._

M. FIELD, D.D., author of “From the Lakes of Killarney to the
Golden Horn,” and “From Egypt to Japan.” 1 vol. crown 8vo, with
a map, $2.
“It ought to be in every Sunday-school library and on every home
table. The minister’s library need not disdain it. We hope Dr.
Field will live long, travel much, never fail to make abundant
notes and give them, with subsequent reflections, in volumes that
will be sure to prolong his usefulness and the gathered treasures
of many days. Books of travel like these preach powerfully both of
the ways of man and the ways of God.”—_Christian Union._
