SOME BOOKS OF THE WEEK.
[Notice In Vat column does not necessarily preclude subsequent review.] Five Little Booklets for Officers and Other., by Arthur Mercer, are not new. Those before us belong to the hundred and fiftieth thousand. Plainly described, they are evangelical tracts, very, straightforward and manly in tone, very far from modern in theology,. They hare already attracted an extra, ordinary consensus of praise. Officers in both Services, Public School masters, and Bishops have written,letters of enthusiastic appreciation tp their author. Their letters aro quoted upon a leaflet of the, nature of a publisher's . advertisement. There is no moans of doubting but, that such teaching is acceptable— the verdict of. such men in final—and if accepted it must be usefuL The booklets are printed on India paper, with tinted art paper covers (size 4i, by 3 inches), and may be obtained from Mr. Mercer at " Rozel," Wimbledon, S.W. The price is one penny each, eleven for one shilling,(post free).
