Aids to Devotion. By Goodwyn Barmby. (Whitfield, Green, and Son.)—A

volume of religious readings in two parts—one relating to the order of the natural, the other to that of the Christian year. They are marked by the same characteristics as the author's poetry, elegance of style, and a cheerful piety, but not by force or depth.
