"This excellent work may be considered as a Third Volume, though it does
not assume that form, and though it is not necessary that the two former
should be read in order to understand it. The first is "Self-cultivation
Recommended," the second is "Advice to the Teens." We cannot render to
our readers a greater service than by recommending to them, in the most
earnest manner, these three volumes, the last of which does not yield in
point of excellence to either of the former."--Baptist Magazine.

price 9s. half-bound.
"The dialogue-form adopted by the author is excellently adapted to the
purposes of explanation, illustration, and comment; and admits of a
variety of pleasant and familiar remarks that otherwise could hardly have
been introduced. Each of the two boys, Lewis and Paul, read their
respective portions of the narrative; their father, uncle, and other
members of the family circle, making their observations as the history
proceeds." Having given an extract, the Reviewer adds--"After this
quotation, it is needless to say that it is an admirable little work to
be put into the bands of the juvenile reader."--Lit. Chron.
