FOR EVERY DAY IN THE YEAR.

Scripture Passages and Parallel Selections from the Writings ofJohn Greenleaf Whittier, arranged byGertrude W. Cartland. Tastefully bound in cloth. 32mo, 75 cents.

This little book of helpful passages for every day is composed of a verse from the Bible and a stanza of similar character from Mr. Whittier’s works arranged together. The spirit of Mr. Whittier’s poetry renders this association altogether harmonious, and the little book furnishes a series of stimulating and consoling thoughts for the whole course of the year.

Calculated to give strength and comfort to a wide circle, and to increase the poet’s admirers.—The Nation(New York).

Very pretty, very cleverly done, and a success of which the authoress may be proud.—The Churchman(New York).
