Living in the Sunshine By Hannah W . Smith Helpful devotional books full of that joy and love that should fill every Christian's heart. The writer is gifted in unfolding the Scripture and in applying its precious truths. Her great purpose here is to help Christians to a realization of the joy of living a Christian life. We commend this book most warmly. Cloth, Price $1.25 A series of spirited ad­ dresses directing attention to the apathetic content­ ment and respectable med­ iocrity in religion charac­ teristic of so much of mod­ ern Christianity. Just the book to put into the hands of self-satisfied church members. Price, Cloth, $1.50 Prodigal Daughters By Joseph Hocking This is not a religious book in any j-sense of that term, but it is exceedingly whole­ some nevertheless. Present day conditions are fearlessly presented in such a way as to hold the reader spell­ bound until the last page is reached. It is a frank "up- to-date story. .'A powerful piece of writing in which the famous novelist graph­ ically describes the strug­ gle against the flood of new morals and ethics and dress of the younger genera­ tion of women. Price $1.75 The Perils of Respectability Bishop Charles Fiske

Around the Campfire With the Older Boys Prof. Margaret W. Eggleston A collection of stories to tell at the campfire, in the house and the class. In the author’s words, “ T h e s e stories are designed to create in the life of the boy a desire for the great and the noble.” Price $1.50 Fireside Stories for Girls in Their Teens Prof. Margaret W . Eggleston The author says in her preface: "Workers with girls know this need of the girl and are constantly searching for the stories that will ap­ peal to her. Most of these stories have been written be­ cause of special problems that needed to be met—* problems peculiar to adoles­ cence-—problems found in every club and class of such girls the country over.” Price $1.50 Wit and Wisdom of Safed the Sage By William E. Barton It has been aptly and truly said, “ A little non­ sense now and then is rel­ ished by the best men” This book was written to meet just that phase of our character. Its wit is keen and clean, its humor is most catching and its wis­ dom is decidedly unique. Try it as a cure for the blues. Decorated Paper Boards. Price $1.25 Safed and Keturah By William E. Barton Whether one wants humor, philosophy, music, art, or poetry, he will find it in “ Safed and Keturah*. Ke­ turah is the wife of the sage, and moreover, a very charm­ ing person. Decorated Boards, $1.25

Here’s One an Hour Long DIARY OF A DOCTOR’S SON (With a Moral) By K. L. Brooks The sure cure for a “ blue Monday” or a “ black Friday” and a real entertainment for a group of friends when read aloud. Not a dry page in it. The “ DIARY OF A DOCTOR’S SON” was actually t a k e n from diaries kept by the au­ thor when a lad. Some years ago, the strikingly funny things were type­ written and copies given to friends in the hopes of giving them “ hys­ terics.** It did the work and was used by them to amuse many groups, who wanted an hour of wholesome f un . T h e r e p e a t e d urging of friends has led us to print it with a few “ illus­ trations.** Attractively b o u n d , printed in large clear type on good paper. Price 25 cents, postpaid.
