Another book which we are glad to see in a
new edition is Sermons to Young Boys. By F. de W. Lushington, M.A. (John Murray. as. net.) It is clear that the discourses have been found to meet a want, and we can easily understand it. They seem to be such as would appeal to their young hearers. The illustrations are well chosen. There is, for instance, the moral problem sug- gested in the case of the boatman who held back from the effort to save some drowning people. He had a wife and children. Was it right to risk his life ? This is just the thing that would set a boy thinking in the right way.
