Literary Notices

THE FOUR CHAINED BOOKS: being the Story of the Four Books ordered to be set up in the Parish Churches of England by Henry J. Cowell. London: Protestant Truth Society, 31 Cannon Street, E.C.4. Price 6d.
This pamphlet contains a great deal of interesting information.

THE FAME OF JESUS: A Sermon by the late Joseph Irons. London: C. J. Farnecombe & Sons, Ltd., 30 Imperial Buildings, Ludgate Circus, E.C.4. Price 3d.; Post free 3½d.
This is a fine sermon on a noble theme by that eminent preacher, the late Rev. Joseph Irons. Mr. Irons has treated the subject in an impressive way.

THROUGH BACA’S VALE OR, DAILY WORDS FOR ZION’S WAYFARERS: Selected from the Works of J. C. Philpot, by his Daughters. Oxford: J. C. Pembrey, 164 Walton Street. Price 6s.
Mr. J. C. Philpot’s writings need no introduction from us. In this excellently printed volume his daughters have done their work well and the extracts judiciously culled from his sermons will be very helpful to Zion’s Wayfarers. Those who have read the former volume of selections will find similar fare in this one. Mr. Philpot was a faithful servant in His Master’s house in dividing the good from the vile and this characteristic runs throughout this volume and will be warmly appreciated in these days of laxity in dubious doctrine and no less dubious emotional experimental preaching. We like the clear ring of the teaching in this book and we are sure it will be highly appreciated by the most discerning of our readers.
