"A most valuable and remarkable book."—Church Bells.
"A singularly able contribution to the study of a fascinating subject, throughout characterised by that large-hearted tolerance which is a characteristic of the time."—Pall Mall Gazette.

Gesta Christi: A History of Human Progress under Christianity. Third Edition. Large crown 8vo, cloth, 7s. 6d.

"The book is valuable as an illustration of the way in which the work of Rome is being done in our land under Church of England auspices. We wish the book an extensive circulation. Young Christians specially should be made cognisant of its story."—Christian.
Life Inside the Church of Rome. By M. F. Clare Cusack (the "Nun of Kenmare"). Second Thousand. In crown 8vo, 7s. 6d.
"Miss Cusack has a great deal to reveal, and she speaks with no hesitating sound. The book before us is something more than a revelation to the Protestant world; it is also a controversial treatise, in popular form, in which the doctrinal errors of the Papacy are considered from the highest standpoint—the written Word of God. It is a book which should find a place on every Protestant family's bookshelves."—English Churchman.
IMPORTANT WORK BY THE DEAN OF NORWICH.
The Christian Ministry: Its Origin, Constitution, Nature, and Work. A Contribution to Pastoral Theology. By the Very Rev. William Lefroy, D.D., Dean of Norwich. In one Volume, 8vo, cloth, 14s.
"This is, in every sense of the word, a timely book.... From the importance of the themes which it embraces, Dean Lefroy's book is one that should be of great value."—Record.
"In presenting his own views, which he does with remarkable power and in the most lucid way, the author has occasion to controvert the opinions of several recent writers, a duty which he performs with great ability, fairness, and unvarying courtesy. These lectures are by no means dry or dull reading; they are lightened up by many passages of chastened eloquence; they show ripe scholarship, and a thorough mastery of materials by which a judgment is to be formed."—Scotsman.
THE LATE DR. HATCH.
Memorials of Edwin Hatch, D.D. Edited by His Brother. In crown 8vo, cloth, 7s. 6d.
"There is noticeable throughout them a sincerity, a strong affection, and sureness of faith; a tender-heartedness and sympathy for the lot of the poor and suffering which is real and often touching. His best sermons are his simplest, and his power shows itself most surely when he is dealing with matters of character and the conduct of life."—Spectator.
The Growth of Church Institutions. By Rev. Edwin Hatch, D.D. Second Edition. In crown 8vo, 5s.
"Standing quite by itself as a solid result of individual search, a book stiff with significant facts and bursting with inferences."—Expositor.
Towards Fields of Light. Sacred Poems. By the Same Author. Cloth, gilt edges, crown 8vo, 2s. 6d.
"They are exquisitely beautiful."—Church Review.
"These delicate and thoughtful poems breathe the very spirit of their author, broad, simple, and sincere."—Pall Mall Gazette.

"A bright and pleasant book of cultivated and well-informed gossip."—Leeds Mercury.
Professor W. G. Elmslie, D.D. Memoir and Sermons. With Portrait. Third Edition. Crown 8vo, cloth, 6s.
Memoir by W. Robertson Nicoll, M.A., LL.D. With Reminiscences by Professor Marcus Dods, D.D., Professor Henry Drummond, Rev. John Smith, M.A., and Rev. James Stalker, D.D.
"In more ways than one this volume is full of interest. Dr. Robertson Nicoll has outlined the personal career of the Professor of Hebrew for his pupils, and of the Presbyterian minister for his disciples, whether directly or indirectly under his charge; but, in supplying them with an admirable selection of memorable words, has given a wider public the opportunity of making acquaintance with the thoughtful life of an original religious mind. The value of the portrait—for it should be valuable to those working for and with others in the spiritual struggles of the age—lies in the inspiration it should give to young thinkers in the Christian Church. In these selections we have little that is not truly catholic in spirit. We do not mean that Professor Elmslie's papers are in any way of classic rank, but we do mean that they tell us of those serene depths over which roll the waves of this troublesome world, powerless to affect their calm. It is impossible by extracts to give an idea of the impression of strength made upon one by what are, after all, only popular sermons and surface-papers; but we think some will thank us for calling attention to what we point to as typical of a young teaching spirit of our own time in its sensitive perceptiveness and practical administrative activity."—Spectator.
James Macdonell (of "The Times"). A Story of Self-Help. By W. Robertson Nicoll, M.A., LL.D. With Etched Portrait by H. Manesse. 8vo, 12s.
"An admirable portrait."—Academy.
"Mr. W. Robertson Nicoll has enriched not only the literature of our day, but the lives of many of us by his sincere, sympathetic, loyal, and artistic rendering of what he fairly calls 'the only life of a journalist pure and simple ever written.' ... This masterly monograph."—Daily Telegraph.
Imago Christi: The Example of Jesus Christ. By the Rev. James Stalker, D.D., M.A., Glasgow, Author of "The Life of Jesus Christ," "The Life of St. Paul," etc. Fifteenth Thousand. In crown 8vo, cloth, 5s.
"A delightful book upon a glorious subject, by one who is better qualified to write it than any other living man.... An immortal book."—Sword and Trowel.
Second Edition, with New Index.
The Miracles of Our Lord. Expository and Homiletic. By the Rev. John Laidlaw, D.D., Professor of Theology, New College, Edinburgh, Author of "The Bible Doctrine of Man," etc. In crown 8vo, cloth, 7s. 6d.
"One of the most suggestive books we have seen lately on the study of the Gospels."—Methodist Recorder.
"Marked by the competent scholarship, the sound and cautious exegesis, the homiletic tact, and the mastery of lucid and, at times, beautiful style which characterise his preaching."—Theological Review.
Joints in Our Social Armour. By James Runciman, Author of "A Dream of the North Sea," etc. In crown 8vo, cloth, 5s.
"Few sermons, one would fancy, could do more good than this book, honestly considered. It speaks plain sense on faults and follies that are usually gently satirised, and makes fine invigorating reading. The book warmly deserves success."—Scotsman.
"Mr. Runciman expresses himself with a vigour which leaves nothing to be desired. He leaves no doubt of what he thinks,—and he thinks, anyhow, on the right side.... Altogether a very vigorous deliverance."—Spectator.
The Makers of Modern English. By W. J. Dawson. In crown 8vo, cloth, 5s.
By the Same Author.
The Threshold of Manhood. A Young Man's Words to Young Men. Second Edition. In crown 8vo, cloth, 3s. 6d.
John G. Paton, Missionary to the New Hebrides: An Autobiography. Edited by his Brother, the Rev. James Paton, B.A. With Portrait. Fifteenth Thousand. Crown 8vo, cloth, 6s. First Part.
Dr. T. L. Cuyler says:—"I have just laid down the most robust and the most fascinating piece of autobiography that I have met with in many a day. It is the story of the wonderful work wrought by John G. Paton, the famous missionary to the New Hebrides; he is made of the same stuff with Livingstone. A book which is as thrilling as any romance."
The Rev. Dr. Pierson, author of "The Crisis of Missions," says:—"I consider it unsurpassed in missionary biography. In the whole course of my extensive reading on these topics, a more stimulating, inspiring, and every way first-class book has not fallen into my hands. Everybody ought to read it."
John G. Paton, Missionary to the New Hebrides: An Autobiography. With Frontispiece. Twelfth Thousand. Crown 8vo, cloth, 6s. Second Part.
"That the present volume will be received with as much favour as its predecessor may be looked upon as a foregone conclusion. Together they form one of the most fascinating records of missionary work."—Glasgow Herald.
"No modern missionary story is more thrilling, romantic, or in parts pathetic, than this; none furnishes more convincing proof of the power of the Gospel or the efficacy of prayer. The whole story is told without one word of self-exaltation, and in a style charming in its simplicity and tenderness."—Methodist Times.
