“It was a happy thought which led Mr. Smith, the Evangelist and close friend and former student of Mr. Spurgeon’s, to prepare this narrative of the life of Mr. Spurgeon. We have read six or seven lives of Mr. Spurgeon, but find none more entertaining or profitable than this. Mr. Smith has done his work well.” THE STANDARD OF CHICAGO. _Other books by Mr. Spurgeon._ =Morning by Morning=; or Daily Readings for the Family or Closet. 414 pp. 12mo. $1. =Evening by Evening=; or, Readings for Eventide. 408 pp. 12mo. $1. =John Ploughman’s Pictures.= With 38 illus. 183 pp. 12mo. 75 cts. =John Ploughman’s Talk.= From new electro-plates.
