WORDS OF COUNSEL: BEING ADDRESSES TO YOUNG PEOPLE ON VARIOUS IMPORTANT SUBJECTS, by H. T. Stohelake, minister of Chaucer Street Chapel, Nottingham. London: C. J. Farncombe and Sons, Ltd., 30 Imperial Buildings, Ludgate Circus, E.C., 4. Illustrated. Price 2s 6d. Post free 2s 10d.
We have in this well-printed book a series of addresses on such subjects as Remember Thy Creator; The Holy Scriptures; Where the Holy Scriptures are Unknown; A Word to Parents and Teachers; The Glorious Reformation; Sufferings of the Waldenses; The Protestant and Roman Catholic Standards of Faith; Poisonous Religious Literature; Spiritualism and Fortune Telling; The Sabbath Day; A Few Thoughts on Repentance, etc.. These addresses appeal strongly to us, being of that sound, solid, Scriptural stamp which are so useful for the young, but which, unfortunately, is too often lacking in addresses to the young. We very heartily commend, though disagreeing with the author on the question of infant baptism, this book to our readers as one they will find very useful in placing in the hands of the young.
SCRIPTURE TEXT CALENDARS.—Messrs Pickering and Inglis, Bothwell Street, Glasgow, have sent us a number of their Scripture text calendars for 1925. These are tastefully got up, and are offered at very reasonable prices.
Those with Scripture texts for each day in the year—”Daily Manna” (1s) and “Young Folks” (1s), and “Golden Text” (1s 3d) (with text for morning and evening) appeal most to us. “Golden Grain” (1s 3d) and “Daily Meditation” (1s 6d) have not only a text, but quotations from different writers. Their “Daily Light” (1d) and “Bible Almanac” (2d), and “Home Almanac” have all Scripture texts for each day in the year.
