MISSIONARY BIOGRAPHIES.—Messrs. Pickering and Inglis, Bothwell Street, Glasgow, have issued in their “Bright Biographies” and “Memoir” series biographies of William Carey and Dan Crawford. These names are written large on the missionary annals of the Christian Church. Willian Casey laboured in India and Dan Crawford in Central Africa. The one was a Baptist and the other belonged to the Plymouth Brethren. The romance of their work has made an appeal to Christians of all denominations. Many of our readers are probably familiar with the story of the consecrated shoemaker and the marvellous career of the Gourock boy, but to whose who are not, here is an opportunity to learn something of the almost superhuman effort they were enabled to put forth. The books are beautifully illustrated and printed and sell for the extraordinary low price of 2/- and 1/- respectively.
