but little. Their passions, their loves, their hatreds belong to the elemental things that remain. To some extent the expression of these may be altered by the passing of the ages, but the characteristics of these men and women of the first cen turies abide. “Upon human passions,” wrote Sir Walter Scott, “it is no doubt true that the state of manners and laws casts a necessary coloring, but the deep ruling impulse is the same.’5(f1 The reading of these chapters on Adam, Eve, Cain, Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Lot, Sarah, Hagar, Ishmael, Isaac, Abraham’s servant, Rebekah, Esau, Jacob, Laban, Reuben, Simeon and Levi, Judah, Benjamin, Joseph and others, will serve to remind us that, in the essence of his being, man is today what he has al ways been. Those who enjoy the study of Bible characters will be glad they pur?- chased this book. (Price $1.75, Morgan & Scott, publishers.)—B. —o— Ownership B y C lementina B utler Miss Butler is the accomplished and consecrated daughter of Dr. and Mrs. William Butler, pioneer missionaries in India and Mexico. Her very excellent book is a Worthy and convincing presen tation of the Christian fact of God’s ownership and man’s stewardship. It is the third in the Stewardship Series of the Women’s Foreign Missionary So ciety of the M. E. Church. While it is written especially for women and has a strong flavor of the mission field, it deals with principles that are universal in application. It has real literary merit, is clear, logical and direct and based upon inescapable Biblical truth. It brings fresh thought and new interest to a subject vital to the interest of the Christian Church. Fleming H. Revell Co. $1.00. —F. M. C. — o — Beyond the Sunset B y . H erbert B ooth S m ith , D. D. This book, as the author says in the Foreword, is “a sheaf of sermons tied together, picked up from the pulpit of Immanuel Presbyterian Church of Los Angeles.” “But,” he says, “it is a sheaf and not a bouquet,” and by this, of course, we are -to understand that it is grain carefully garnered from the grain fields and real grist for the mills of the gods. It has to do with the future life and what lies beyond the sunset of our brief earthly day. It presents a simple, home ly, telling argument for immortality and for the resurrection, including the resur rection of the body. It also deals with such popular questions as Reincarna tion, Spiritism, Ouija Board, and Shall We Recognize Our Loved Ones in Heaven. These are dealt with in a wholesome way and answered to the satisfaction of all evangelical Chris tians. We bespeak a wide circulation for this piece of wholesome sermons by a deservedly popular preacher. Published by Fleming H. Revell Company. Price $1.50. —J. M. M.
