A Series of Addresses suitable for "A Retreat," "A Quiet Day," or for private reading with many entirely new thoughts and the expressions of thought. The book is written with marked ability and can be thoroughly recommended.
It contains eight chapters suggesting thought, and stimulating the praise and worship of God. In these days of emotion and spiritual disquiet it is a wholesome thing to be drawn to think about the relation of body and spirit in the harmony of the life of grace. The mistaken distinctions of natural and spiritual are here put away, and man is shown in his common life as the Child of God, intent upon doing his Father's business.

This book contains fine Addresses for the Sundays in Lent, Good Friday and Easter Day applicable to the War.
The Publishers cannot do better than give the chapter headings of the book which is written in this popular writer's best vein:

Refreshment Sunday: The Three Witnesses. Passion Sunday: The Three-One God. Palm Sunday: The Three Burdens. Good Friday: The Three Crosses. Easter Sunday: The Threefold Benediction.
