=Talks to Little Folks.= A Series of Short Addresses. By Rev. J. C.
CARLILE. Crown 8 vo, art vellum, 1s.
”No one who reads this book can reasonably doubt that Mr. Carlile is master of the difficult art of catching and sustaining the interest of young people. He is wise enough to dispense with the preacher's framework, texts, introductions, &c., and at once he arrests attention by a direct question or a brief story.”--_Literary World._
=Oliver Cromwell.= By R. F. HORTON, D.D., Author of ”John Howe,” ”The Teaching of Jesus,” &c., &c. Sixth Edition. Nineteenth Thousand. 1s.

=Rome from the Inside; or, The Priests' Revolt.= Translated and Compiled by ”J. B.” of _The Christian World_. Third Thousand.
Fcap. 8 vo, price 1s.
This pamphlet may be described in brief as a record of the new revolt in the French priesthood. Its contents are chiefly letters and addresses from priests and ex-priests. These, it will be recognised at once, are a testimony of the very first order as to what modern Rome really stands for in relation to spiritual life, to morality, and to intellectual progress.

Printed on deckle-edged paper, with red border lines and decorated wrapper, in envelope. Price 1s.
”Each of Dr. Matheson's chapters is a prose-poem, a sonata. This is a book to be read and re-read. It is in every sense 'a thing of beauty'; it is a veritable 'necklace of pearls.'”--C. SILVESTER HORNE.

=The Sceptre Without a Sword.= By Dr. GEORGE MATHESON.
In envelope. Pott 8 vo, 1s.
”'The Sceptre Without a Sword,' by Dr. George Matheson, is worth reading, and that is more than one can say for the vast majority of booklets now turned out to order. The subject is more important than ever to-day when it is the fas.h.i.+on to ignore the root principles of Christianity.”--_The Echo._
”This is a very charming little book--both externally and internally.”--_Ardrossan and Saltcoats Herald._
=Our Girls' Cookery.= By the Author of ”Tasty Dishes.” Crown 8 vo, linen, 1s.

=A Tale of a Telephone, and Other Pieces.=
”Narrative pieces, suitable for recitation.”--_Outlook._
”Facile and effective pieces in verse of the sort that tells well on the recitation platform. They have a pleasant light humour and a lilt often like that of the Ingoldsby Legends, and should not fail to entertain any reader in a jocular mood.”--_Scotsman._
=The Bishop and the Caterpillar= (as recited by the late Mr. Brandram), and Other Pieces. Dedicated by permission to Lewis Carroll. Fourth Edition.
”The first two pieces are quite worthy of Ingoldsby, and that reverend gentleman would not have been ashamed to own them. The pieces are admirably suited for recitation.”--_Dramatic Review._
