Day by Day : Devotional Readings for the Blind. (Weekly
Summary Office, Eltham, Kent. 9d.)—The blind, debarred from ordinary literature, possess publishers of their own, and a con- siderable literature in Braille type. Several Braille monthly magazines are published, and one newspaper, the Weekly Summary (price 2d.), which with steady and enduring zeal has for eleven years supplied home and foreign news, and musical and other information specially interesting to the blind. The editors of this useful newspaper publish annually embossed cards bearing Christmas greetings and verses ; and for friends who desire a more lasting token of remembrance, the same editors publish a book of monthly readings, put together with such catholicity of choice that it contains extracts from Luther and St. Theresa, Burke and Latimer, Henry Drummond, Goethe, and the Venerable Bede. All honour to those who seek to lighten darkened lives.
