MUTUAL  ASSURANCE  WITH  MODERATE  PREMIUMS. 

SCOTTISH    PROVIDENT 

INSTITUTION, 

6  ST.  ANDREW  SQUARE,  EDINBURGH. 

THIS  SOCIETY  differs  in  its  principles  from  other  Offices. 
Instead  of  charging  rates  higher  than  are  necessary,  and  returning  the 
excess  in  the  shape  of  periodical  Bonuses,  it  gives  from  the  first  as  large  an 
Assurance  as  the  Premiums  will  with  safety  bear — reserving  the  "Wliole 
Surplus  for  those  Members  (a  majority  of  the  whole)  who  have  lived  long 
enough  to  secure  the  Common  Fund  from  loss. 

A  Policy  of  ;£i20O  to  ^"1250  may  thus  at  most  ages  be  had  for  the  Premium 
usually  charged  for  (with  profits)  ^"1000  only  ;  while,  by  reserving  the  surplus, 
large  additions  have  been  given  to  the  Policies  which  participate. 

At  last  division  of  Profits,  Policies  for  ^1000  sharing  a  first  time  were 
increased  to  sums  varying  from  ;£ii8o  to  ^1300  or  more,  and  others  to 
^1400,  ^1700,  and  upwards. 

Farther  additions  will  be  made  at  the  end  of  the  present  year.  The  steady 
progress  of  the  Business,  and  the  rapid  Increase  of  the  Funds  due  (in  great 
measure  to  the  low  rate  of  Expenses),  give  good  reason  to  anticipate  very 
favourable  results.

*  A  person  of  30  may  secure  £1000  at  death  by  a  yearly  payment,  during  life,  of  £20  15a, 
which  would  generally  elsewhere  secure  £800  only,  instead  of  £1000.  Or  he  may  secure 
the  same  sum  of  £1000  by  twenty-one.  yearly  payments  of  £27  13s  4d,  being  thus  free  of 
payment  after  age  50. 

t  At  age  40  the  Premium  ceasing  at  60  is,  for  £1000,  £33  14s  2d,  being  about  the  same 
as  most  Offices  require  during  the  whole  term  of  life.  Before  that  time  the  Policy  will  have 
shared  in  at  least  one  division  of  profits. 

The  FUNDS  (increased  in  year  by  £341,000)  are  now 
£6,000,000. 

Only  Two  Offices  in  the  Kingdom,  both  older,  have\as  large  a  Fund. 
The  Increase  of  the  Funds  in  last  five  years  exceeds  that  of  any  other  Office. 


The  Society  has  taken  a  leading  part  in  the  removal  of  restrictions  and 
grounds  of  challenge.  The  rules  relating  to  foreign  residence,  revival  of 
Policies,  early  payment  of  claims,  etc.,  are  specially  liberal. 

The  Surrender  Values  (given  in  accordance  with  an  original  fixed 
Table)  "  compare  favourably  with  those  of  other  first-class  Offices." 

Reports,  containing  Tables  of  Rates,  may  be  had  on  application.

Intended  as  a  guide  to  the  understanding  of  our  popular  scientific  literature.  To  make 
the  book  convenient  for  ready  use,  a  selection  of  the  most  commonly  used  and  most  impor- 
tant words  has  been  made.  At  the  same  time,  accuracy  with  brevity  has  been  specially 
aimed  at,  and  the  number  of  the  references  is  the  best  evidence  of  its  range  and  conciseness.

The  General  Town  Mission. 

This  Mission  was  organised  in  1846,  with  the  object  of  extending  the  know- 
ledge of  Divine  truth  among  the  inhabitants  of  Dalkeith  and  vicinity  by  em- 
ploying a  missionary,  whose  duty  it  is  to  visit,  and  read  the  Scriptures.  Meetings 
are  held  in  the  Douglas  Memorial  Hall,  Tait  Street,  which  was  built  and  pre- 
sented to  the  Society  in  1887  by  George  Douglas,  Esq.,  Eskbank.  The  affairs 
of  the  Mission  are  conducted  by  a  Committee,  composed  of  the  ministers  of 
the  town,  being  subscribers,  and  members  of  the  various  religious  denominations. 
Missionary — Mr  James  Fleming. 

Treasurer— Mr  Robert  Wight',  Draper.        Secretary— My  David  Jerdan.

place,  and  also  conducts  services  on  the  Sabbaths.  A  singing  class  is  conducted 
at  Whitehill  each  week.  The  student  also  conducts  a  meeting  at  Adam's  Row, 
Millerhill,  on  alternate  Sundays  with  that  of  Cousland,  at  2.30  p.m.  A  Band 
of  Hope  is  also  held  weekly,  at  Millerhill.

This  Society  was  originated  in  1837,  since  which  time  the  tracts  of  the 
Scottish  Monthly  Tract  Society  have  been  regularly  circulated  in  the  town  and 
neighbourhood.  It  is  supported  by  voluntary  contributions,  and  has  at  present 
about  30  distributors,  who  circulate  about  1700  tracts  monthly.  The  distributors

IN  issuing  the  Fourth  Annual  Edition  of  Carment's  Directory, 
we  have  to  tender  our  sincere  thanks  for  the  largely  increased 
support  the  publication  received  during  the  past  year,  the 
circulation  of  which  has  reached  a  point  hitherto  unattained 
by  any  publication  of  the  kind  in  the  district. 

Encouraged  by  this,  we  resolved  to  still  further  enhance 
the  value  of  our  already  useful  work.  The  outcome  of  this 
has  been  the  addition  of  a  Professions'  and  Trades'  Directory 
for  Dalkeith.  As  a  means  of  reference,  this  will,  we  doubt 
not,  prove  most  useful. 

Our  best  thanks  are  also  due  to  our  friends  and  corres- 
pondents who  have  always  been  so  ready  to  assist  us,  and  to 
the  Editors  of  the  various  newspapers  and  journals  who  have 
so  favourably  reviewed  our  work  in  the  past.

Editor  Carment's  Directory.

DESCRIPTION  OF  ILLUSTRATIONS. 


TOWN  HALL,  BRUSSELS. 

The  Hotel  de  Ville  of  Brussels  is  the  most  interesting  edifice  in  Brussels  and  one 
of  the  noblest  and  most  beautiful  buildings  in  Belgium.  The  building  dates  from 
the  fifteenth  century,  and  is  178  feet  long,  165  feet  broad,  the  handsome  tower  being 
350  feet  high. 

THE  GLASGOW  INTERNATIONAL  EXHIBITION. 

If  all  things  continue  to  go  as  well  as  they  are  doing  the  Glasgow  International 
Exhibition  will  be  opened  in  May,  1S88.  It  is  hoped  that  the  Queen  may  grace 
the  opening  by  coming  to  the  city.  The  Fine  Arts  Committee  have  now  issued  their 
prospectuses  applicable  to  the  sale  and  loan  sections.  Her  Majesty  the  Queen  is  patron, 
and  H.R.H.  the  Prince  of  Wales  is  honorary  president.  The  corresponding  members 
include  Mr.  L.  Alma-Tadema  and  Mr.  Hamo  Thornycroft,  and  the  committee  com- 
prises many  of  our  leading  citizens,  the  Hon.  Sir  James  King,  Lord  Provost,  being 
Chairman  of  the  Executive  Council.  The  Art  Section  is  to  include  sculpture  (original 
works  in  marble,  bronze,  etc.,  terra-cotta,  wax,  and  plaster  of  paris),  oil  paintings, 
water-colour  drawings,  works  in  black  and  white  (charcoal,  crayon,  and  sepia  draw- 
ings, etc.),  engravings  and  etchings  (steel  and  copper  engravings,  lithographs,  etc.), 
architectural  drawings  and  models,  and  objects  illustrative  of  Scottish  history  and 
archaeology.  The  Art  Galleries  are  to  be  ten  in  number,  occupying  an  area  equal  to 
3200  square  yards,  and  affording  about  2450  lineal  feet  of  hanging  space.  It  is  pro- 
posed that  objects  illustrative  of  Scottish  history  and  archaeology  shall  be  placed  in  a 
separate  building  specially  constructed  for  the  purpose.  Electric  light  will  be  used 
throughout  the  Exhibition,  and  the  mode  of  its  application  in  the  Fine  Art  Galleries 
will  obviate  the  risks  incidental,  under  other  conditions,  to  the  use  of  artificial  lights. 
It  may  be  added  that,  while  detailed  arrangerneuts  are  still  only  in  prospect,  it  is 
contemplated  that  music,  both  choral  and  orchestral,  shall  enter  largely  into  the  daily 
life  of  the  Exhibition.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  nothing  will  occur  to  mar  the  success 
of  an  Exhibition  to  which  the  citizens  generally  look  forward  with  great  interest, 
and  which  its  promoters  are  earnestly  seeking  to  carry  forward  on  the  highest  as 
well  as  the  most  popular  lines. 

THE  BERNESE  OBERLAND. 
The  Highlands  of  Berne  include  the  most  celebrated  peaks  in  the  middle  of  Switzer- 
land, among  which  are  the  Wetterhorn,  Schreckhorn,  Finsteraarhorn,  Viescherhorn, 
Eiger,  Monch,  Jungfrau,  etc.  These  mountains,  seen  on  a  clear  day,  say  from  the 
terrace  in  front  of  the  Cathedral  at  Berne,  form  a  panorama  which  can  never  be 
forgotten;  while  their  great  height  does  not  appear  too  overwhelming,  although  they 
are  mostly  from  12,000  to  14,000  feet  high.  The  old  town  of  Berne  itself  is  well  worth 
seeing,  the  mediaeval  architecture  being  most  curious  and  interesting. 

ST.  PETER'S,  ROME. 
While  we  give  the  palm  to  the  Colosseum  as  the  most  wonderful  ancient  buildtijLg 
in  Europe,  and  to  the  Alhambra  as  the  most  wondeiful  mediaeval  building,  there  fts 
no  doubt  that  the  Cathedral  of  St.  Peter  in  Rome,  although  not  the  most  extensive 
modern  building  in  Europe,  is  by  far  the  most  magnificent.  On  entering  the  Piazza 
Rusticucci,  opposite  the  fagade  of  St.  Peter's,  one  is  struck  with  the  immense  space, 
broken  only  by  the  silver  spray  of  its  glittering  fountains  and  by  the  obelisk  in  the 
centre.  The  height  of  the  whole  obelisk  is  132  feet,  but  of  the  shaft  only  83  feet.  On 
each  side  of  the  piazza  are  magnificent  colonnades  having  2S4  columns,  and  they 
enclose  an  area  of  777  feet.  The  height  of  St.  Peter's  from  the  pavement  to  the 
top  of  the  dome  is  426  feet,  and  the  whole  building  is  so  immense  that  if  it 
were  possible  St.  Paul's  in  London  could  easily  be  accommodated  inside  of  it.  The 
cost  of  the  main  building  alone  is  said  to  have  been  above  ten  millions  sterling,  and 
the  annual  cost  for  repairs  is  £6300.  Mendelssohn  writes: — "  The  building  of  St.  Peter's 
surpasses  all  powers  of  description.  It  appears  to  me  like  some  great  work  of  nature, 
a  forest,  a  mass  of  rocks,  or  something  similar,  for  I  never  can  realise  the  idea  that  it 
is  the  work  of  man.  You  strive  to  distinguish  the  ceiling  as  little  as  the  canopy  of 
heaven.  You  lose  your  way  in  St.  Peter's  ;  you  take  a  walk  in  it  and  ramble  till  you 
are  quite  tired.  When  divine  service  is  performed  and  chaunted  there  you  are  not 
aware  of  it  till  you  come  quite  close.  The  angels  in  the  Baptistry  are  enormous 
giants,  the  doves  colossal  birds  of  prey.  You  lose  all  sense  of  measurement  with  the 
eye  or  proportion,  and  yut  who  does  not  feel  his  heart  expand  when  standing  under 
the  dome  and  gazing  up  to  it?"  "The  interior  bursts  upon  our  astonished  gaze 
resplendent  in  light,  magnificence,  and  beauty  beyond  all  that  imagination  can 
conceive.  Its  apparent  smallness  of  size,  however,  mingled  some  decree  of  surprise 
and  even  disappointment  with  my  admiration,  but  as  I  walued  slowly  up  its  long 
nave,  empanelled  with  the  rarest  and  richest  marbles,  and  adorned  with  every  art  of 
sculpture  and  taste,  and  caught  through  the  lofty  arches  opening  views  of  chapels 
and  tombs  and  altars  of  surpassing  splendour,  I  felt  that  it  was  indeed  unparalleled  in 
beauty,  in  magnitude,  in  magnificence,  and  one  of  the  noblest  and  most  wonderful 
of  the  works  of  man  "  (Eaton's  "  Rome  ").

r  I  lHIS  historic  castle  is  built  on  a  rock  22  yards  from  the  shore,  at  the  south-east 
-*-  end  of  the  lake  of  Geneva,  and  is  close  to  the  watering  place  called  Montreux. 
Who  has  not  read  Byron's  poem,  "The  Prisoner  of  Chillon?"  This  gloomy  old 
castle  dates  from  the  tenth  century,  and  is  one  of  the  most  striking  objects  on  the 
banks  of  the  lake. 


Chillon  !   thy  prison  is  a  holy  place, 

And  thy  sad  floor  an  altar— for  'twas  trod 
Until  his  very  steps  have  left  a  trace, 

Worn,  as  if  the  cold  pavement  were  a  sod, 
By  Bonivard  ! — may  none  those  marks  efface, 

For  they  appeal  from  tyranny  to  God.

KITCHEN  GARDENER'S  CALENDAR. 

January. — This  is  the  month  for  preparing  early  vegetables,  whether  by 

the  hot-bed  or  in  the  natural  ground.     If  you  have  any  lettuce  plants  in 

frames,  let  them,  -whenever  the  weather  is  fine,  enjoy  the  open  air,  and  even 

in  wet  weather  do  not  exclude  the  air  altogether;   but  should  the  frost  be 

rigorous,    let    them    be    closely   covered    up.      If    the    weather    be    open, 

asparagus,  radishes,  carrots,  spinage,  parsley,  <fec. ,  for  early  use  may  be  put 

in  preparation  this  month.     The  soil  must   be  prepared  for  various  crops, 

such  as  peas  and  beans ;    some  kinds  of   the  former  may  be   sown  in  a 

favourable  state  of  the  weather.

April.— Let  the  cucumber  and  melon  hot-beds,  which  were  made  a  month 
or  two  ago,  be  examined,  in  case  they  should  not  have  attained  the  proper 
heat.  Sow  these  plants  early  in  the  month;  transplant  lettuces;  thin  radishes; 
sow  round  radishes  and  spinage  ;  plant  out  full  crops  of  cabbages  and  savoys; 
still  sow  onions  and  leeks.  Sow  spinage  for  a  succession  crop  in  May  and  June; 
it  will  yet  succeed.  Where  a  constant  supply  of  the  plant  is  required,  they 
ought  to  be  sown  once  a  fortnight,  as  they  soon  run  into  seed.  Beet,  if 
omitted  previously,  may  still  be  sown.  Plant  slips  and  cuttings  of  kitchen 
herbs,  but  take  care  not  to  give  too  much  water  to  thyme.  Finish  the  graft- 
ing of  all  trees  this  month.  Plant  strawberries  in  edgings  ;  add  climbing 
plants  of  all  kinds.  Begin  the  hoe  culture  of  killing  weeds  wherever  practicable.

kidney  beans  to  succeed  those  of  last  month  ;  and  in  wet  days  put  in  the 
principal  crop  of  runners.  Asparagus  ought  to  be  fit  this  month  to  be  cut 
for  use.  In  moist  weather  transplant  such  lettuces  as  were  sown  the  two 
former  months.  Keep  clean  the  beds  of  turnips,  carrots,  parsnips,  onions, 
&c,  and  thin  such  as  require  it.  Transplant  spring  sown  cabbage  and 
savoys  for  autumn  use,  also  red  cabbage.  Plant  out  towards  the  middle  or 
end  of  this  month  the  gourds  and  pumpkins  sown  in  April.  Plant  out 
tomatoes  or  love  apples.  Carrot  seed  may  still  be  sown  in  succession; 
such  as  are  sown  in  this  month  \    "1  be  very  acceptable.

July.— Prepare  ground  for  the  autumn  and  winter  crops.     Plant  your  prin. 

cipal  crops  of  savoys  and  winter  cabbages.     Transplant  brocoli,  and  sow  seed 

for  a  late  spring  crop.    Plant  late  crops  of  kidney  beans.    Sow  onions  to  stand 

the  winter,  but  this  not  before  the  end  of  the  month.    About  the  middle  of 

the  month  you  may  sow  some  carrots,  which  will  come  into  use  at  Michael- 

mas, and  continue  good  till  the  spring ;    the  same  remarks  apply  to  turnips. 

Thin,  transplant,  and  sow  lettuces,    winter  spinage,  and  several  kinds  of 

radishes,  particularly  the  turnip  rooted.     As  celery  is  a  water  plant,  and 

requires  to  grow  quick,   it  should  be  kept  alive  by  wet.    Lift  all  winter 

onions  that  are  full  grown,  and  prepare  mushroom  spawn.

September. — This  is   the   season  for   providing  mushroom    spawn,   and 

dung  for  the  mushroom  beds.     The  spawn  is  found  chiefly  in  dry  old  rotten 

dunghills  ;  it  is  a   white    fibrous  substance  spreading  in  the  dung.     The 

spawn  must  be  kept  from  wet.     Plant  lettuces  in  frames  for  winter  use  ; 

transplant  cauliflowers.      The  young  cabbage  plants  which  were  sown  the 

first  or  second  week  of  August  for  an  early  crop  next  summer  and  autumn 

should  be  planted  into  nursery  beds.    Continue  to  plant  celery  in  trenches, 

and  earth  up  the  plants  as  they  advance.   Continue  to  gather  seeds.  Cardoons, 

which  will  now  have  made  considerable  progress,  must  be  earthed  up  for 

blanching,   their  leaves  being  previously  tied  up  carefully  and  regularly. 

Cover  asparagus  with  manure.     Plant  cuttings  of  gooseberries,    currants, 

raspberries,  and  strawberries.     Remove  hardy  evergreens,  shrubs,  &c.

November. — Get  everything  out  of  the  land   this  month  which  is  not 

intended  to  stand  during  the  winter.     In  the  middle,  or  towards  the  end  of 

this  month,  is  a  proper  season  to  plant  early  beans,  to  succeed  such  as  may 

have  been  planted  in  October.    The  same  direction  may  be  applied  to  peas. 

Brocoli  may  be  laid  down,  and  their  heads  pointed  to  the  north,  especially 

the  high  growing  kinds.    Where  the  asparagus  beds  were  not  cleaned  and 

earthed  during  the  last  month,  it  must  now  be  done.     Artichokes  should 

now  receive  their  winter  dressing.     The  beginning  of  this  month  you  should 

take  up  carrots  and  other  roots  to  be  preserved  in  sand,  &c,  for  the  use  of 

the  kitchen  during  the  winter  months.     After  the  middle,  or  towards  the 

latter  end  of  this  month,  according  to  the  state  of  the  weather,  will  be  the 

time  to  put  fires  in  the  hot-houses,  particularly  in  the  evenings. 

DECEMBER  begins  on  Saturday-31  Days.

December. — Remove  decayed  leaves  from  the  cauliflower  plants,  and  let 
the  plants  have  free  air  during  the  day.  If  the  weather  be  dry  and  open,, 
radishes  and  carrots,  for  an  early  crop,  may  be  sown.  Keep  up  the  succession 
of  peas ;  the  kind  called  hotspur  is  one  of  the  best  for  this  season.  Plant 
beans  now,  if  you  have  not  planted  them  earlier.  Attend  carefully  to  have 
the  mushroom  beds  defended  from  frost  and  wet.  Take  advantage  of  the 
first  day,  if  not  frosty,  to  earth  up  such  of  the  celery  as  may  be  in  a  fit  state 
for  it;  and  see  that  the  plants  are  pretty  dry  before  you  begin  earthing. 
Carefully  examine  fruit  which  has  been  laid  up  in  the  house.

EULE  TO  FIND  THE  WEIGHT  OF  CATTLE. 


Take  the  girth  behind  the  shoulder,  and  the  length  from  the  fore  part  of 
the  shoulder  blade  along  the  back  to  the  bone  at  the  tail,  which  is  in  a  vertical 
line  with  the  buttock,  both  in  feet.  Multiply  the  square  of  the  girth  by  5 
times  its  length,  and  divide  by  21 :  the  quotient  is  the  weight,  nearly,  of  the 
four  quarters,  in  imperial  stones  of  14  lbs.  avoirdupois. 

g£T  The  Publishers  will  feel  obliged  by  notices  of  alterations  in  the  date  of 
any  of  the  foregoing  Fairs  and  Fasts  being  transmitted  them  for  correction  in

and  others.  Small  4to,  10s.  6d.  cloth,  gilt  edges. 
"  The  author's  endeavour  has  been  to  recall  those  qualities  in  the  personal  character 
of  the  Queen  and  the  incidents  in  her  life  which  have  most  endeared  her  to  her  people 
during  the  last  fifty  years  ;  and  he  has  also  aimed  at  giving  a  brief  but  comprehen- 
sive summary  of  the  great  public  movements  of  the  time.  In  both  efforts  he  seems 
to  have  succeeded  to  admiration.  Dr.  Macaulay  writes  en  pleine  connaissance  de  cause. 
He  has  witnessed  the  events  which  he  narrates,  and  been  brought  face  to  face  with 
the  personages  whom  he  portrays.  He  has  the  liveliest  ocular  remembrance  of  '  Fifty 
years  since.'  " — Illustrated  London  News.

In  extra  crown  8vo,  cloth,  price  5s., 

The    Gates    of    Eden:     A    Story    of    Endeavour. 

Second  Edition. 

'  The  subject  of  Miss  Swan's  "  Gates  of  Eden"  is  one  which  demands,  and 
receives  from  her  hand,  a  skilful  treatment.  John  Bethune  rears  his 
motherless  boys  in  accordance  with  a  preconceived  plan.  The  elder  is  to  be 
a  minister,  the  younger  is  to  follow  the  plough.  Circumstances  seem  to 
favour  his  scheme  ;  for  the  future  minister  has,  it  appears,  the  advantage  in 
appearance,  in  manners,  and  in  ability.  But  the  real  truth  is  different.  The 
depth  of  character  and  the  best  mental  gifts  really  belong  to  the  latter.  How 
the  young  man,  conscious  of  his  power,  yet  stedfastly  walks  along  the 
appointed  path  till  he  is  free  to  choose,  and  how,  once  free,  he  enters  on  his 
own  way  and  overcomes  all  its  difficulties,  is  very  well  told  in  these  pages. 
We  have  not  often  seen  a  better  portraiture  than  is  that  of  the  two  brothers. 
Miss  Swan  is  too  skilful  to  make  the  weaker  of  the  two  a  mere  foil  to  the 
stronger.  He,  too,  with  all  his  faults,  has  virtues  of  his  own,  and  the  reader 
is  glad  to  see  them  reaching  their  true  development  before  the  story  is 
finished.  The  episode  of  the  recovery  of  Willie  Lorraine,  a  repentant 
prodigal,  is  full  of  pathos ;  as  is  also  the  love-story  of  Mary  Campbell.  The 
"Gates  of  Eden"  is  a  worthy  successor  to  the  author's  "  Aldersyde."' — 
Spectator. 

'  A  distinct  success.  .  .  .  We  follow  the  career  of  twin  brothers  through 
the  book — Sandy  and  Jamie  Bethune.  Sandy,  apparently  getting  all  the 
brains,  is  sent  to  St.  Andrews  to  study,  and  his  conceits  and  fine  talk  on  his 
visits  home  are  humorously  described.  Then  we  see  him  transformed  into 
the  Bev.  Alexander  Bethune  of  Lochbroom.  Jamie  seems  fit  only  for  the 
harrows  and  the  loom  at  first,  but  Aunt  Susan  always  sees  deeper  than  this, 
and  we  read  with  interest  the  story  of  his  endeavour  to  rise  to  higher 
things.  His  character  is  well  drawn,  the  earnest,  noble  soul  following 
God's  leading.' — British  Weekly. 

'  The  "  Gates  of  Eden"  is,  like  most  of  its  predecessors,  a  homely  tale  of 
Scottish  life  and  manners.  The  homely  dialect  is  given  with  admirable 
fidelity,  and  there  is  much  truthful  delineation  of  character.' — Scotsman. 

'  The  underlying  conception — that  of  a  contrast  between  two  brothers, 
the  one  brilliant,  clever,  and  superficial,  but  needing  stern  discipline  before 
the  real  strength  of  his  nature  can  be  evoked ;  the  other  modest,  unselfish, 
but  earnest  and  indomitable — is  strongly  grasped  from  the  first,  and  is 
wrought  out  with  such  power  and  consistency  as  to  hold  the  reader's 
attention  by  a  kind  of  spell.  The  book  is  one  which  everybody  can  read 
with  pleasure,  and  from  which  many  will  profit.'— Scottish  Leader. 

'  One  of  the  most  dramatically  rendered  scenes  of  the  book  is  that  in 
which  the  death  of  old  Peter  Bethune  is  described.  If  the  author  had  never 
written  anything  else,  this  part  of  the  story  would  justify  her  claim  to  the 
place  in  the  front  rank  of  our  most  gifted  literary  artists.' — Northern 
Ensign. 

'  A  happy  note  is  struck  at  the  very  outset  of  the  "  Gates  of  Eden,"  and 
the  quality  of  the  good  beginning  is  maintained  throughout.  .  .  .  The  best 
of  all  the  stories  that  we  have  yet  received  from  the  pen  of  its  accom- 
plished authoress.' — Kilmarnock  Standard. 

'Bemarkably  beautiful,  noble  in  spirit,  rich  in  pathos,  strong  in  the 
triumph  of  an  earnest  purposeful  life.' — Daily  Mail.

Crown  4to,  cloth  extra,  with  150  Illustrations,  price  10s.  6d., 

Edinburgh,   Past   and    Present.      By   J.    B.    Gillies. 

With  Notes  of  the  County,  Historical,  Descriptive,  and  Scientific. 
By  Rev.  James  S.  Mill,  Flora  Masson,  and  Dr.  Geikie. 

'"Edinburgh,  Past  and  Present,"  by  J.  B.  Gillies,  is  a  handsome  book — 
a  sweet,  dainty,  and  most  pleasure-giving  memorial  of  Edinburgh.  The 
letterpress  is  first  rate.  Mr.  Gillies  is  a  skilled  writer,  and  he  knows 
Edinburgh  History.  In  this  volume,  in  a  style  at  once  simple  and  graphic,  he 
links  the  past  with  the  present ;  and  without  any  parade  of  antiquarian  lore 
he  tells  all,  or  nearly  all,  that  is  worth  repeating  regarding  the  public  and 
domestic  history  of  the  capital  and  its  famous  buildings  and  institutions.' — 
The  Daily  Review.  ■ 

'  Mr.  J.  B.  Gillies,  if  we  mistake  not,  is  a  writer  who  already  has  attained  a 
large  share  of  popularity  by  his  descriptions  of  storied  scenes  in  the  Modern 
Athens.  Under  this  impression  we  may,  perhaps,  congratulate  the  "  Benjie  " 
of  old  upon  the  handsome  appearance  of  "Edinburgh,  Past  and  Present.' 
Throughout  the  two  hundred  and  sixty  pages  will  be  found  a  large  number 
of  illustrations,  very  beautifully  executed,  and  adding  no  inconsiderable 
interest  to  the  spirited  text.' — The  Publisher 's  Circular. 

'  The  book  cannot  be  too  highly  praised.' — The  Inverness  Courier. 

'Eeadable  from  end  to  end,  and  in  many  places  extremely  amusing.'— 
St.  James's  Gazette. 

'  The  illustrations  of  the  book  are  gems  of  the  art.  No  pains  have  been 
spared  to  make  the  book  complete.  It  is  finely  and  spiritedly  written ;  it  is 
eloquently  embellished.  Every  American  visitor  of  "Old  Edinboro"  will 
surely  want  this  charming  work.' — Bound  Lake  Journal,  U.S.A. 

'  A  better  man  than  Mr.  Gillies,  the  author  of  the  letterpress,  no  one  could 
desire  as  a  guide  through  Old  Edinburgh,  for  no  man  knows  it  better. 
Eeaders  of  the  famous  "Edinburgh  Supplement"  of  the  "Graphic"  must 
know  his  handiwork.  The  illustrations  are  the  very  things  one  would  wish 
for  in  such  a  book.' — Aberdeen  Journal. 

'  This  is  a  spendidly  got  up  book,  both  internally  and  externally.  Author 
and  publishers,  artist  and  engraver,  printers  and  binder  have  all  combined  to 
make  the  work  worthy  of  the  subject.' — Kelso  Mail. 

'The  vignette  illustrations  interspersed  among  the  letterpress  are  charming. 
As  a  drawing-room  book  it  is  highly  attractive.' — Spectator. 

'  Everything  in  and  about  the  Old  Town  of  Edinburgh  is  interesting,  and 
that  interest  is  very  much  enhanced  in  the  present  work  by  the  numerous  and 
well-executed  woodcuts  which  adorn  its  pages.  The  author  has  earned  the 
thanks  of  his  contemporaries  by  the  able  manner  in  which  he  has  woven  into 
his  work  the  most  salient  points  of  Edinburgh  History.  Its  style  and  typo- 
graphy are  of  that  high  order  which  we  might  expect  from  a  firrn  of  publishers 
of  such  repute.' — Western  Antiquary. 

'  This  is  an  elegantly  got  up  and  altogether  very  interesting  volume;  and 
numerous  as  are  the  books  about  Old  and  New  Edinburgh,  there  is  nothing  in 
existence  so  well  adapted  to  the  requirements  of  the  general  reader.  Mr. 
Gillies'  coadjutors,  who  have  supplied  the  Historical,  Descriptive,  and 
Scientific  notes,  have  done  their  parts  exceedingly  well.' — Aberdeen  Free 
Press. 

'  One  of  those  books  which  should  be  popular  among  the  crowds  who 
annually  flock  to  the  Scottish  metropolis.  ...  A  book  which  can  be  taken 
up  at  any  time,  and  will  seldom  be  laid  down  without  having  given  the 
reader  some  pleasure  and  profit.  What  publishers  could  do  to  make  the 
work  attractive  and  successful  has  been  done.' — Glasgow  Herald.

The  Story  of  Old  Whiddy;   or,  How  Little   Doris 

began  to  make  Her  Mark  in  Life.     By  Zala. 

Rough,  a  Clever  Dog.    A  True  Story  of  his  Life. 

By  Mrs.  Jaevis. 

'  Two  companion  stories  for  young  people,  which  would  make  a  good 
present  for  brother  and  sister.' — Scotsman. 

'  Two  excellent  books  for  the  young,  attractively  illustrated.  The  intention 
of  the  writers,  it  may  be  stated,  is  not  merely  to  interest  their  youthful 
readers,  but  to  induce  them  to  treat  with  kindness  and  consideration  their 
faithful,  intelligent,  four-footed  friends.  We  wish  the  books  every  success  in 
this  laudable  object.' — Border  Advertiser. 

'  The  writers  of  these  charming  stories  are  doing  great  service  to  the  cause 
which  the  Society  for  the  Prevention  of  Cruelty  to  Animals  have  at  heart.' — 
Haddington  Courier. 

'  "Bough"  is  a  true  story  of  a  clever  dog,  told  in  a  most  humorous  and 
taking  vein  by  the  author  of  "  The  Autobiography  of  a  Eobin."  She  proves 
that  Bough  was  no  ordinary  fellow,  and  makes  him  tell  the  story  of  his 
wonderful  career  like  the  clever  dog  he  is.' — Dundee  Courier. 

'  These  are  companion  volumes  which  enforce  upon  children  the  duty  of 
kindness  towards  animals,  and  the  publishers  deserve  credit  for  the  dainty 
dress  in  which  they  appear.' — Dumfries  Courier. 

'We  commend  "  The  Story  of  Old  Whiddy"  as  a  book  of  rare  merit.  The 
story  is  sure  to  please  the  young  folks,  especially  those  who  are  fond  of 
domestic  pets.  It  is  not  a  mere  book  of  pictures — though  these  are  beautiful 
and  plentiful — they  are  illustrations,  and  make  the  narrative  more  real  and 
vivid. ' — Orcadian. 

'  Handsome  little  volumes,  .  .  .  very  pleasantly  written,  .  .  .  calculated  to 
teach  excellent  lessons.  They  will  be  appreciated  by  children  when  more 
expensive  gifts  might  not  be.  No  parent  or  friend  will  regret  putting  them 
nto  the  hands  of  the  young  folks.' — Brechin  Advertiser. 

'  Wonderful  Old  Whiddy !     Let  all  the  children  read  his  life.'—  Weekly  Post. 

'"Bough"  is  worthy  to  be  classed  with  "Bab  and  his  Friends."  "Old 
Whiddy"  is  also  delightful.' — Presbyterian  Witness,  Halifax. 

'  Both  stories  are  as  graceful  and  pretty  as  anything  of  the  kind  we  have 
seen  for  many  a  long  day.' — Manchester  Examiner. 

'  An  exceptionally  good  little  story  for  the  nursery  library ;  bairns  should 
leam  to  know  what  a  dog  is.' — Aberdeen  Journal. 

'  Pleasantly  and  simply  written,  and  containing  many  picturesque  details  of 
family  life,  both  books  will  be  appreciated.' — Scottish  Leader. 

'Books  for  very  little  folks  that  deserve  special  notice.' — Nevjcastle 
Chronicle. 

'  If  any  real  dog  possessed  the  accomplishments  so  amusingly  described  by 
Mrs.  Jarvis,  it  must  have  been  a  canine  genius  indeed.' — The  Graphic. 

'  Both  books,  which  are  nicely  got  up,  may  help  to  train  young  people  in 
works  of  mercy.' — Liverpool  Mercury. 

'Bough's  biography  discloses  features,  incidents,  tricks,  and  traits  which 
are  certainly  novel  and,  beyond  question,  interesting.' — Zoophilist. 

'"Old  Whiddy"  is  one  of  the  most  charmingly  simple  pussy-cat  stories 
we  have  met  with.  We  have  been  delighted  with  the  pictures.' — Aberdeen 
Journal. 

'  Both  stories  are  clever,  and  are  certain  to  be  appreciated  by  the  young 
people,  for  whose  entertainment  they  have  been  designed.' — News  Letter,

The  Shadow   of  the    Hand,  and   other   Sermons 


By  Rev.  W.  A.  Gray,  Elgin. 


'  Earnest,  thoughtful,  and  scholarly  sermons.' — Literary  Churchman. 

'  A  volume  of  delicate,  true,  and  helpful  delineations  of  certain  phases  of 
Christian  experience.  .  .  .  Conveys  a  most  favourable  impression  of  the 
original  and  careful  work  that  is  being  done  for  the  pulpit  by  conscientious 
men. ' — Expositor. 

'  It  is  seldom  that  one  meets  with  such  sermons  as  these  coming  from 
Scotland,  or,  for  the  matter  of  that,  from  England.' — The  Churchman. 

'  The  whole  volume  of  sixteen  sermons  we  can  cordially  recommend.' — 
Clergyman's  Magazine. 

'  We  commend  the  book  .  .  .  for  its  quiet,  meditative  grace,  and  its  deep 
feeling  for  Nature.  .  .  .  Maintains  a  high  level  of  vigorous  common  sense, 
and  is  as  much  alive  to  the  needs  and  characteristics  of  the  world  of  men  as 
to  the  gentler  impressions  of  the  field  and  sky.' — Homiletic  Magazine. 

'  A  book  of  thoughtful  sermons  by  a  Scotch  minister.' — Christian. 

'  Exceedingly  thoughtful,  deeply  spiritual  and  practical.' — Christian 
World. 

'  Discourses  of  rare  excellence.  Give  evidence  of  independent  and  vigor- 
ous thought,  and  are  characterized  by  much  freshness  and  beauty;  no  striving 
after  originality,  and  yet  we  have  it.' — N.  B.  Daily  Mail. 

'  The  thoughts  are  fresh  and  vigorous ;  the  arrangement  is  clear,  the  tone 
is  devout.' — Primitive  Methodist  World. 

'  Everything  is  brought  to  bear  upon  great  principles  of  the  Christian 
life.  Devout,  evangelical,  and  fervent,  these  are  very  useful  and  practical 
sermons.' — British  Quarterly  Review. 

'Multiplied  evidence  of  homiletic  and  expository  skill,  controlled  and  held 
in  check  throughout  by  loyal  submission  to  the  word  of  God.' — British  and 
Foreign  Evangelical  Record. 

'  Substantial  sermons,  which  we  have  read  with  much  pleasure.  We 
delight  in  their  doctrine,  tone,  and  manner.  The  sermon  on  "  Faith  refusing 
Deliverance  "  strikes  us  as  a  masterpiece ;  .  .  .  fine  specimens  of  sermons 
for  an  educated  Christian  audience.' — Mr.  Spurgeon  in  Sivord  and  Trowel. 

'  Thoughtful,  practical,  and  extremely  elegant.  .  .  .  The  theories  handled 
are  taken  hold  of  with  power.  The  language  in  many  places  is  exceedingly 
beautiful. ' — Presbyterian  Messenger. 

'  Admirable  sermons.  Evangelical  in  sentiment,  eminently  practical  and 
useful,  and  abounding  in  fresh  and  attractive  illustrations.' — United  Presby- 
terian Magazine. 

'  The  most  notable  feature  of  the  book  is  the  amount  of  solid  thought  in 
it;  next  we  should  mention  the  sustained  and  unfailing  earnestness  of  the 
sermons. ''—Christian  Leader. 

'Remarkable  for  their  graceful  style  and  literary  finish ;  they  have  a  fresh- 
ness of  thought,  a  clearness  of  expression,  and  a  current  of  pathos  that  can- 
not fail  to  interest.' — Aberdeen  Free  Press. 

'  Since  the  Eev.  John  Ker  published  his  single  volume  of  Sermons  some 
years  ago,  there  has  been  no  such  suggestive  volume  given  to  the  press  as 
this.' — Northern  Whig,  Belfast. 

'  Evidently  the  product  of  a  very  thoughtful  and  cultured  mind.  .  .  .  Bear 
the  impress  of  the  nineteenth  century  upon  them.' — Belfast  Witness. 

'  Vigorous,  direct,  and  manly.  .  .  .  Sermons  that  can  be  read  without  a 
sense  of  impatience  or  weariness.' — Westmoreland  Gazette.

Aldersyde.     A    Border    Story   of    Seventy    Years

The  Authoress  has  received  the  following  Autograph  Letter  from  Mr. 
Gladstone: — 

4  10  Downing  Street, 
Whitehall,  April  16,  1883. 

'  Dear  Madam, — I  have  now  read  the  work  which  you  did  me  the  honour 
to  present  to  me  with  a  very  kind  inscription,  and  I  feel  obliged  to  add  a  line 
to  my  formal  acknowledgment  already  sent.  I  think  it  beautiful  as  a  work  of 
art,  and  it  must  be  the  fault  of  a  reader  if  he  does  not  profit  by  the  perusal. 
Miss  Nesbit  and  Marget  will,  I  hope,  long  hold  their  places  among  the  truly

Carlowrie  ;    or,   Among    Lothian    Folk.     By  Annie 

S.  Swan. 

'A  treat  to  the  lovers  of  Scottish  fiction,  the  scenery  and  local  truth  of  the 
dialect  and  "  modes  of  thought "  are  all  that  can  be  desired ;  and  the  book  is 
no  small  addition  to  the  literature  which  endeavours  to  depict  a  phase  of 
country  life  fast  passing  away.' — Athenasum. 

1  Will  certainly  enhance  the  reputation  of  the  authoress  of  "  Aldersyde."  ' — 
Liverpool  Mercury. 

'  The  characters  are  sketched  with  more  freedom  and  with  more  keenness 
also  than  those  in  "Aldersyde,"  and  this  comparison  is  just  as  severe  a  test 
as  could  be  applied.' — Daily  Review. 

'  The  delineation  of  the  house-mother,  Mrs.  Dalrymple,  strikes  us  as  being 
one  of  the  very  finest  portraits  to  be  found  in  the  whole  extent  of  our  national 
literature  of  a  clever,  sunny-hearted,  and  utterly  unselfish  Scotchwoman  of 
the  rustic  middle  class.' — Kilmarnock  Journal. 

1  The  interest  of  the  reader  is  enchained  from  first  to  last.' — The  Christian. 

'  The  book  possesses  a  quiet  idyllic  charm  which  it  is  impossible  to  resist. 
.  .  .  The  breezy  freshness  and  pervading  refinement  of  the  story  will  hardly 
fail  to  please  all  readers  of  simple  tastes.' — Academy. 

' "  Carlowrie  "  is  already  one  of  the  pronounced  successes  of  the  season. 
All  the  Scottish  newspapers,  with  one  characteristic  exception,  are  delighted 
with  this  tale  of  the  Lothians.  That  it  is  a  study  from  the  life,  executed 
with  the  delicate  insight  that  comes  from  loving  sympathy,  hardly  admits  of 
a  doubt ;  and  the  delineation  of  the  farmer's  gentle  wife — one  of  nature's  true 
nobility — is  a  masterpiece  of  the  purest  pathos.' — Christian  Leader. 

'  Of  such  stories  as  this — full  of  tender  religious  feeling,  life-like  characters, 
and  graceful  description — one  cannot  have  too  many.' — Literary  World. 

1  A  sweet  idyl  of  rural  life  in  a  country  farm.' — Southern  Reporter. 

'A  healthy  tone,  and  a  Doric  having  the  right  twang  in  it.' — Fifeshire 
Journal. 

'  It  is  with  choice  taste,  and  an  appropriateness  rarely  found  in  the  inscrip- 
tion of  a  book,  that  Miss  Swan  dedicates  her  "  Carlowrie  "  to  the  dear  memory 
of  her  who  made  the  sunshine  of  the  home  that  was ;  and  she  may  be  well  con- 
gratulated on  her  work  as  the  book  of  the  season.' — National  Literary 
Journal. 

'  True  to  the  life.  .  .  .  Interesting  from  beginning  to  end,  and  the  reader 
must  be  hard  to  please  who  cannot  find  entertainment  in  what  is  at  once  a 
pleasant  novel  and  a  good  book.' — Northern  Whig. 

'  An  episode  of  Midlothian  life,  so  true  in  its  local  descriptions,  so  graphic  in 
its  character  drawing,  and  so  pure-spirited  withal,  that  the  most  fastidious 
critic  will  fall  in  love  with  it.  .  .  .  Parents  of  taste  and  intelligence  will  be 
glad  to  put  such  a  book  as  this  into  the  hands  of  their  children.' — Courant.

Gertrude     Ellerslie :    A     Story     of    Two    Years. 

By  Mrs.  Meldrum. 

4  Will  be  read  with  keen  pleasure  on  account  of  its  being  so  true  to  life.' — 
Christian  Union. 

1  A  well-sustained  story,  abounding  in  varied  interest,  and  full  of  clear 
character  sketching ;  .  .  .  fascinating  book.' — Christian  Leader. 

'  The  book  is  one  of  unflagging  interest,  variety  of  scene,  and  numerous 
characters.' — Cliristian  World. 

4  A  handsome  volume  externally,  and  within  most  gracious.  So  long  as 
we  must  have  fiction,  we  hope  women  like  Mrs.  Meldrum  will  employ  their 
pure  hands  and  loving  hearts  therein.  Personal  interest  is  here  illustrated 
by  a  charming  story.' — Sword  and  Trowel. 

4  The  story  is  simple,  natural,  realistic.  The  tone  is  thoroughly  healthy, 
and  shuns  all  that  is  maudlin  or  silly.  The  lessons  taught  are  unexception- 
able, and  those  who  relish  a  good  story  well  told,  would  be  delighted  with 
the  book.' — Canada  Presbyterian. 

4  There  are  persons  who,  in  their  superior  kind  of  way,  dismiss  a  novel  as 
intolerable  which  breathes  a  religious  spirit,  and  pointedly  inculcates  the 
lessons  of  evangelical  faith  and  life.  It  is  probably  useless  to  restate  the 
arguments  by  which  a  defence  may  be  sustained  of  such  works  of  fiction,  but 
we  would  ask  those  who  hold  the  unfriendly  attitude  we  have  indicated,  to 
read  with  impartial  mind  the  story  before  us.  We  shall  be  greatly  surprised 
if  the  generous  impulses  and  the  high-toned  spirit  of  the  tale  do  not  impress 
its  readers,  who  cannot,  at  all  events,  fail  to  be  profoundly  interested  and 
stirred  by  its  pictures  of  varied  life.  The  family  portraiture  of  the  various 
groups  is  vivid  and  striking.  .  .  .  The  character  of  Gertude  is  very  power- 
fully drawn.  .  .  .  The  grouping  is  very  artistic,  and  the  details  disclose  an 
amount  of  careful  observation  and  discriminating  judgment  which  find 
expression  at  once  simple  and  forcible  in  this  most  attractive  story.' — Daily 
Review. 

4  Ought  to  find  favour  with  a  large  circle  of  readers.  It  introduces  us  to  a 
very  large  circle  of  characters,  some  of  which  are  sketched  with  remarkable 
vividness.  The  tale,  as  such,  is  extremely  entertaining,  so  that  the  interest 
never  flags.' — Christian  Monthly. 

4  The  story  has  strong  merits.  The  authoress  is  a  woman  of  cultivated 
intellect,  and  endowed  with  strong  sympathies  for  the  poor.  The  plot  of  the 
novel  is  not  a  very  intricate  one,  it  possesses,  however,  a  healthy  tone.  Some 
of  the  characters  are  exceedingly  well  drawn.' — Richmond  and  Ripon 
Chronicle. 

4  This  is  a  story  which  will  be  welcomed  by  many,  though  it  is  written 
chiefly  for  thoughtful  girls.  The  characters  are  drawn  from  the  homes  of 
our  own  day.  We  have  met  them,  known  them,  and  lived  among  them  ;  but 
they  are  on  this  account  none  the  less  interesting — perhaps  we  like  them  the 
better  that  the  scenes  through  which  they  move  are  familiar,  and  the  life 
they  live  so  like  our  own.  The  book,  like  all  Mrs.  Meldrum's  books,  has 
been  written  with  an  aim  kept  steadily  in  view— that  of  showing  that  one 
may  possess  all  the  world  can  give,  but  only  divine  love  and  fulness  can 
satisfy  a  human  heart.  .  .  .  The  book  will  help  and  cheer  weary  folk;  it  will 
guide  seeking  ones,  and  counsel  those  who  fear  to  ask  for  advice.  And  yet 
there  is  nothing  dull,  nothing  wearisome  in  it.  The  motivo  and  execution 
are  both  admirable.' — The  Outlook.

1  A  good  and  faithful  character  study ;  a  type  of  a  pure,  good_  woman — 
not  a  woman  whose  goodness  and  virtue  are  oppressively  prominent,  but 
one  whom  we  feel  to  be  good,  whose  actions  are  those  of  flesh  and  blood,

1  Can  it  be  right  or  kind  to  recommend  a  book  when  some  of  the  results  of 
its  perusal  are  occasional  tears  rolling  down  one's  cheek?  The  fact  is,  that 
one  forgets  this  is  a  story,  and  the  entire  Vivian  family  stand  out  before 
the  reader  as  if  he  had  seen  and  talked  to  them.  The  self-indulgent  old 
gentleman ;  the  patiently  enduring  wife  ;  the  four  brothers,  with  their  quiet, 
distinct  characters ;  and  Ursula,  the  spirited,  bright,  noble,  resolute  girl, 
all  appear  real  persons  to  us.  How,  when  within  one  short  dark  week  both 
father  and  mother  were  taken  away,  Ursula  set  herself  to  become  "  a  sister- 
mother,"  and  carried  out  her  high  resolve,  readers  must  learn  for  them- 
selves, and  in  so  learning  we  promise  them  kindled  hearts  and  admiring 
thoughts.' — Scottish  Sabbath-School  Teacher. 

'  A  very  touching  story,  the  pathetic  features  of  which  are  made  all  the 
more  effective  by  the  sweetly  simple  style  of  the  author.  .  .  .  The  story  is 
religious  in  sentiment,  but  there  is  nothing  maudlin  about  its  tone,  which  has 
a  genuine  and  wholesome  ring  in  it.' — Liverpool  Courier.

By   Still   Waters  :    A  Story  for  Quiet  Hours.     New  and 
Cheaper  Edition.     By  Edward  Garrett. 

'  We  like  this  "  Story  for  Quiet  Hours  "  very  mucb  better  than  we  have 
liked  any  of  Mr.  Garrett's  recent  tales  ;  he  has  shaken  himself  free  from  the 
leaven  of  Puritanism,  and  is  at  his  best — always  pleasant  and  readable,  some- 
times giving  utterance  to  a  really  fine  and  graceful  thought,  and  showing 
plenty  of  dry  humour.' — The  Graphic. 

'  We  have  read  many  books  by  Edward  Garrett,  but  none  that  has  pleased 
us  so  well  as  this.  It  has  more  than  pleased,  it  has  charmed  us.  All  through 
it  runs  a  golden  thread  of  spiritual  wisdom  that  makes  you  linger  as  you 
read.  The  best  character,  drawn  with  great  care,  is  Sarah  Russell.  We  have 
all  of  us,  we  hope,  met  such  good,  kind,  wise  women  who  seem  to  be  sent 
into  the  world  to  put  things  straight  and  lift  everybody  to  a  higher  plane  of 
existence.' — The  Nonconformist. 

'  It  possesses  merits  of  a  very  sterling  order.  The  book  is  a  good  one  in 
every  sense  of  the  word.  The  author  sets  a  high  aim  before  him,  and  he 
achieves  it.  In  Tibbie  there  is  a  grim  humour  closely  allied  to  pathos  under- 
lying her  queer  epigrammatic  sayings.' — Morning  Post. 

'  The  beauty  of  the  language  and  the  profusion  of  fine  thoughts  scattered 
throughout,  constitute  its  chief  charm.' — Dundee  Advertiser. 

'  The  volume  is  interspersed  with  some  shrewd  sayings.' — Daily  Neivs. 

'  Mr.  Garrett  is  a  novelist  whose  books  it  is  always  a  pleasure  to  meet.  His 
stories  are  full  of  quiet,  penetrating  observation.  Few  novelists  photograph 
characters  so  beautiful  and  subtle  as  Sarah  Russell's  and  Tibbie's,  or  envelope 
their  tale  in  a  like  bower  of  tender,  thoughtful  love.' — Echo. 

'Is  full  of  good  sense.' — Westminster  Review. 

'  A  natural,  well-written,  and  deeply  interesting  story.'  —  Primitive

'  The  story  is  well  and  racily  told ;  it  is  lit  up  with  occasional  gleams  of 
humour,  and,  withal,  with  a  better  light  still.  It  is  a  wholesome  and  a  help- 
ful book.' — Leeds  Mercury. 

'  A  fine  combination  of  masculine  vigour,  spiritual  insight,  and  racy 
humour.  ...  To  quite  an  extraordinary  extent  the  volume  abounds  in  sayings 
that  are  notable,  both  for  the  striking  originality  of  their  substance  and  their 
pointed  style  of  expression.' — Christian  Leader.

Bits  from  Blinkbonny  ;  or,  Bell  o'  the  Manse.  A 
Tale. of  Scottish  Village  Life  between  1841  and  1851.  By  John 
Strathesk.     With  Six  Original  Illustrations. 

'  The  daily  life  in  a  thoroughly  Scotch  rural  village  is  described  in  the  most 
lifelike  manner,  and  one  feels  a  personal  certainty  of  being  able  to  recognise 
any  of  the  people  described  if  one  met  them.  The  homely  but  pretty  illustra- 
tions place  the  country  scenery  before  our  actual  vision.' — Athen 


'Altogether,  "Bell"  is  an  exquisitely  careful  and  finished  study.  The  book 
abounds  in  quaint  touches  of  Scottish  humour,  delightful  specimens  of  our 
vernacular  language,  incidents  and  anecdotes  grave  and  gay.' — Scotsman. 

'The  effect  is  really  delightful,  and  the  blending  o'f  quiet  humour  and 
natural  pathos  in  the  volume  makes  it  a  positive  refreshment  to  the  spirit. 
.  .  .  The  account  of  Bell's  courtship  with  the  shamefaced  bachelor,  David 
Tait  of  Blackhrae,  is  delicious.' — Glasgow  Daily  Mail. 

'If  there  are  not  so  many  characters  introduced  as  in  some  of  Sir  Walter 
Scott's  works,  the  characters  have  an  individuality  as  pronounced  as  any  of 
his,  and  the  lights  and  shades  of  character  are  finished  off  with  an  equal 
degree  of  care  and  truthfulness.' — Huntly  Express. 

'  Bell  is  the  heroine  of  the  book,  and  a  well-drawn  character  she  is,  with  her 
quaint  ways,  her  happy  expedients,  her  clever  but  never  shrewish  tongue,  her 
simple  yet  strong  fidelity  to  the  family  she  served,  and  her  wise,  droll,  and 
pithy  sayings.  Dan  Corbett,  the  one-eyed  smuggler,  poacher,  molecatcher, 
and  a  dozen  other  things,  ranks  next  to  Bell  as  a  finished  portraiture.' — 
Chambers's  Journal. 

'Piquant  and  charming  in  its  very  simplicity.  Enlivened  in  almost  every 
page  by  bits  of  genuine  Scottish  humour.' — Ayr  Advertiser. 

'The  chapter  treating  of  "Wee  Nellie"  comes  closer  home  in  its  power  of 
stirring  the  heart  than  anything  we  have  seen  since  the  appearance  of  Dr. 
John  Brown's  "  Kab  and  his  Friends."  The  illustrations  are  true  works  of 
art.' — Brechin  Advertiser. 

'A  story  of  homely  Scotch  life,  pleasant  and  amusing.  The  dialect  is  well 
managed  and  faithful  without  being  overdone.' — The  Graphic. 

'  Scattered  throughout  the  volume  are  several  graphic  sketches  of  village 
characters,  including  Gavin  Sinclair,  the  beadle  and  gravedigger,  an  old 
worthy  descended  from  John  Brown  of  Priesthill,  the  covenanting  martyr, 
Dan  Corbett,  the  village  poacher,  etc' — Edinburgh  Courant.

read  it  without  a  sense  of  real  enjoyment.' — The  Literary  World. 

'We  have  never  seen  Scottish  village  life  better  described.' — Montrose 
Review. 

'A  finely  told  story,  which,  for  interest,  excels  not  a  few  of  our  novels.  A 
splendid  study.' — Hawick  Advertiser. 

'  The  author  describes  the  village  life  of  Scotland  with  the  fidelity  and  grace 
of  Wilkie.  We  should  have  enjoyed  hearing  Burns  read  them  to  Tarn  o' 
Shanter  over  the  last  gill.' — Sheffield  Independent.

4  The  Laird's  Secret.'     By  Jane  H.  Jamieson. 

'  To  intelligent  readers  there  is  a  charm  in  so  genuine  a  story  of  modern 
life  and  thought.' — Athenceum. 

'  It  is  long  since  we  have  read  an  equally  healthy,  pure,  and  bracing  story. 
The  scene  is  laid  in  a  country  parish  near  Edinburgh.  Mr.  Scott,  the  young 
"  Laird,"  is  vigorously  drawn,  and  the  handsome  and  attractive  Dr.  Black- 
burn is  a  careful  study  of  character.  There  are  also  many  glimpses  of  humble 
Scottish  life  throughout  the  book,  which  attest  the  able  hand  of  the  writer. 
It  is  emphatically  good,  alike  as  regards  style  and  tone.' — British  Quarterly 
Review. 

'  The  three  girls  are  fresh  and  breezy  as  the  heathery  hills  around  them, 
and  many  of  the  situations  they  figure  in  are  powerfully  exciting.  Once 
open  the  book,  and  you  cannot  lay  it  down  till  you  have  followed  the  fortunes 
of  the  three  sisters  to  the  close.' — Court  Journal. 

'Exhibits  a  clear  insight  into  human  nature.' — Public  Opinion. 

'  There  is  some  love-making  in  the  story,  and  the  doings  of  all  the  people 
in  a  Scottish  village  near  Edinburgh  are  minutely  chronicled  with  a  simple- 
hearted  jubilation  at  the  superiority  of  all  things  Scotch.  The  plot  mainly 
turns  on  the  machinations  of  the  Popish  factor,  who  is,  of  course,  outwitted 
in  the  end.' — Daily  News.

'  A  delightful  story  well  told.' — Christian  World.

reading.' — Northern  Whig. 

'Mr.  Scott,  the  young  laird,  and  Dr.  Blackburn  are  sharply  cut  as 
silhouettes,  and  will  live  in  our  literature.  .  .  .  An  excellent  work,  cleverly 
conceived,  and  showing  unusual  power.' — Sheffield  Telegraph. 

'  A  very  fascinating  tale;  worth  a  hundred  of  the  aesthetic  and  dolorously 
tragical  volumes,  in  which  there  is  often  so  much  fine  writing  associated  with 
mean  sentiment.' — Sheffield  Independent. 

'  Herein  are  combined  a  story  of  real  life  interest,  characters  which  are 
well  drawn  and  fascinating,  and  adequate  though  not  elaborate  descriptions 
of  scenes  and  associations  in  rural  Scotland;  and  while  "  The  Laird's 
Secret,"  with  its  love-making  and  love  troubles,  and  its  spice  of  sensationalism, 
must  have  charms  for  readers  in  general,  the  quaint  Doric  speech  of  some  of 
the  personages  will  endow  the  book  with  special  attractions  in  Scottish 
eyes.' — Liverpool  Courier.

A  Divided  House :    A  Study  from  Life.     By  Annie  S. 
Swan. 

'The  author  of  "  Alder  syde  "  and  "  Carlowrie  "  will  lose  nothing  in  re- 
putation by  her  new  story,  "  A  Divided  House."  It  professes  to  be  a  study 
from  real  life,  and  bears  strong  internal  evidence  that  it  is  so,  and  that  it  is 
a  faithful  study.  It  is  well  written,  in  a  quiet  but  clear  and  effective  style. 
Its  interest  owes  nothing  to  the  sensational  element,  dealing  as  it  does 
with  domestic  loves  and  trials,  with  the  mistakes  and  follies  of  human 
weakness,  followed  by  the  chastening  of  consequent  misfortune,  and  the 
final  triumph  of  religious  faith  and  patient  human  valour.  The  principal 
characters  are  admirably  portrayed,  and  there  is  great  delicacy  of  touch  in 
the  delineation  of  the  female  characters,  the  weak  and  erring,  but  finally 
purified  and  ennobled,  wife  of  Eichard  Blake,  and  his  sweet  and  almost 
perfect  cousin  Mary  Osborne.  The  religious  element  in  the  story  is 
essential  to  the  plan,  and  to  the  development  of  the  characters,  and  is  always 
justly  subordinated  to  the  leading  purpose  of  the  book,  never  degenerating 
into  canting  talk,  as  is  too  often  the  case  with  books  of  this  class.  "A 
Divided  House  "  may  be  heartily  recommended  to  all  lovers  of  pure  whole- 
some fiction.' — Scotsman. 

'  There  is  nothing  striking  in  plot  or  incident,  the  events  related  in  the 
narrative  being  all  such  as  we  see  happening  around  us  every  day ;  .  .  .  but 
gracefully  told,  and  in  many  passages  full  of  quiet  pathos.  The  moral  in- 
tended to  be  taught  is,  of  coiu'se,  the  chastening  and  purifying  influence  of 
adversity  on  a  worldly  mind,  and  the  need  for  mutual  patience  and  forbear- 
ance in  wedded  life.' — Aberdeen  Journal. 

'  Its  quiet,  human  touches  give  us  an  almost  personal  interest  in  the  person- 
ages of  the  story.  Indeed,  as  might  be  expected  from  the  author's  peculiar 
faculty  for  limning  home  life,  the  domestic  passages  which  abound  through- 
out the  book  are  the  most  attractive.' — Dundee  Advertiser. 

'  The  present  tale  is  one  of  deep  interest.  The  title  is  derived  from  the 
result  of  the  marriage  of  a  young  city  merchant  with  the  daughter  of  a 
country  squire  with  highly  fashionable  connections.  The  various  points, 
such  as  "The  Dawn  of  Love,"  "Across  the  Eubicon,"  and  "Taking  up 
the  Cross,"  being  worked  out  with  unmistakeable  power.  There  is  a  good 
deal  of  subtle  analysis  of  character  in  the  story,  which  from  the  change  of 
theme,  as  compared  with  her  previous  books,  reveals  a  variety  of  power  on 
the  part  of  the  novelist,  and  holds  out  the  prospect  of  other  good  work 
from  the  same  pen.  The  whole  book  is  full  of  quiet,  true  power.' — 
Liverpool  Mercury. 

'  This  story  is  told  with  the  same  directness  and  simplicity  which 
characterize  Miss  Swan's  previous  works,  and  we  are  sure  that  those  to 
whom  she  has  in  them  already  afforded  pleasure  and  instruction,  will  not 
be  disappointed  when  they  turn  to  the  pages  of  "A  Divided  House."'— 
Literary  World. 

'  Full  of  pathetic  feeling  and  deep  insight  into  human  nature.' — Warring- 
ton Guardian. 

'Full  of  those  quiet,  quaint,  and  unexpected  touches  of  genius  which 
have  made  her  other  stories  so  popular,  and  the  tone  that  runs  through 
the  whole  of  this  graceful  story  of  struggle  and  triumph  is  of  the  highest 
and  most  true-hearted.' — Sheffield  Independent.

A   Door   of   Hope.     By  Jane  T.  Stoddart.

thoroughly  healthy.' — Scotsman.

'  The  writer  has  not  only  produced  a  pleasant,  well-written,  and  interesting 
story,  but  has  woven  into  it  the  great  principles  of  religion  in  an  unobtrusive 
and  natural  manner.' — People's  Journal. 

'  The  story  is  full  of  incident,  with  which  high  teaching  is  interwoven.' — 
British  Weekly. 

'  This  is  a  very  ably  written  story.' — Airdrie  Advertiser. 

'  A  good  moral  tone  runs  through  the  volume,  and,  as  we  have  read  it  from 
beginning  to  end,  we  have  no  hesitancy  in  recommending  it  as  suitable  for 
young  people.' — Home  and  School,  Toronto. 

'  This  is  a  marvellous  book,  and  proclaims  the  writer  to  possess  great 
literary  powers,  which  may  yet  gain  for  her  a  distinguished  place  among  the 
literary  fraternity.' — Presbyterian  Messenger. 

'We  have  read  it  with  great  interest,  and  have  found  it  worthy  of  high 
commendation.  "  A  Door  of  Hope  "  is  a  good  title  for  a  good  book.' — Kelso 
Mail. 

'  In  the  true  sense  of  the  word,  this  is  a  popular  little  work' — Canada 
Presbyterian. 

'  The  interest  of  the  story  is  well  sustained  throughout.' — Dundee  Courier. 

'  Alike  as  regards  quality  and  quantity,  it  is  splendid  value  for  the  money. 
It  has  the  further  charm  of  not  likely  to  be  thrown  aside  after  being  once 
read.  Those  who  go  over  it  once  will  find  fresh  thoughts  awakened  on  a 
second  reading.' — Huntly  Express. 

'  The  tale  is  well  constructed,  and  told  with  much  feeling.' — Perthshire 
Constitutional. 

'Merits  high  praise  for  originality  of  ideas,  combined  with  probability, 
the  lack  of  which  renders  many  books  unreadable.  "  A  Door  of  Hope  "  will 
take  its  place  with  the  highest  class  of  modern  literature.' — Dublin  Evening 
Mail. 

'  The  chief  characters  in  the  book  are  evidently  life  studies,  and  ex- 
ceedingly well  drawn,  the  individuality  of  each  being  full  and  striking,  as 
well  as  perfectly  preserved  throughout  the  story.  No  healthier,  pleasanter 
reading  could  be  put  in  the  hands  of  young  people.' — Aberdeen  Free  Press. 

'  We  have  nothing  but  praise  for  the  work,  which  we  hope  may  meet  with 
such  a  reception  as  will  encourage  its  talented  young  authoress  to  favour 
the  public  with  other  books.  The  high  moral  and  spiritual  tone  which 
pervades  "  A  Door  of  Hope"  Avill  open  the  doors  of  every  Christian  house- 
hold to  her  succeeding  books,  and  will  make  her  not  only  a  successful 
writer,  but  a  power  for  good.' — Kelso  Chronicle. 

'Many  beautiful  passages  scattered  throughout  the  volume  would  well 
bear  quotation  did  space  permit.  The  chapter  entitled  "  To  the  West, 
Three  Gates,"  reveals  a  reserve  of  power,  and  a  distinct  ray  of  genius.' — 
Christian  Leader. 

'  Our  readers  will  have  no  difficulty  in  identifying  the  watering-place 
which  is  the  scene  of  this  story,  although  it  is  called  Westerley-on-Sea. 
The  book  tells  as  pretty  a  little  love  story,  or  rather  double  love  story,  as  we 
have  read  for  a  very  long  time.  The  author's  object  is  unpretending ;  but  she 
has  produced  an  interesting,  wholesome,  and  lifelike  story.' — Bristol  Mercury.

BY  THE  AUTHOR  OF  'BITS  FROM  BLINKBONINY.' 


Extra  crown  8vo,  elegantly  bound,  cloth,  gilt,  price  5s., 

The  'COME'  and  'GO'  Family  Text-Book;  con- 
taining a  '  Come  '  and  '  Go '  Text  for  every  Day  in  the  Year, 
also  spaces  for  Births,  Marriages,  and  Deaths. 

'The  author  of  "Bits  from  Blinkbonny"  has  succeeded  in  devising  a 
genuine  novelty — a  remarkably  handsome  small  quarto,  with  a  dainty 
coloured  border  on  each  page.  "  The  '  Come  '  and  '  Go '  Family  Text-Book  " 
is  composed  of  Scripture  passages,  each  day  having  a  couple,  in  the  first  of 
which  the  word  "Come"  has  a  leading  function,  while  in  the  second  the 
word  "  Go"  is  no  less  prominent.  A  real  teaching  power  is  secured  by  the 
quaint  arrangement,  which  is  quite  the  reverse  of  mechanical.  The 
compilation  has  been  executed  "with  brains"  and  also  with  spiritual 
insight.' — Glasgow  Daily  Mail. 

'  A  novel  idea  in  books  of  the  nature  of  calendars  has  been  carried  out 
in  this  elegant  volume.  No  one  could  desire  a  more  suitable  framework 
for  the  coming  and  going  of  his  friends.' — Scotsman. 

1  As  neat  and  elegant  a  book  of  Scripture  quotations  as  has  yet  appeared. 
A  glance  through  the  collection  of  texts  containing  the  words  "  Come"  and 
"Go"  respectively, — given  for  each  day  in  the  year, — conveys  the  idea  that 
these  two  little  words  are  set  in  the  most  pathetic  and  grandest  passages  in 
Holy  Writ.  Most  of  the  available  space  is  intended  for  the  Kegister  of 
Births,  Marriages,  and  Deaths,  and  thus  the  book  may  become  a  well-prized 
register  of  kindred  and  friends.' — Scottish  Leader. 

'  A  beautifid  book  both  outside  and  in,  and  does  credit  to  both  compiler 
and  publisher.  In  the  way  of  a  text-book  it  is  quite  a  novelty.  Its  specialty 
is  that  the  quotations  from  Scripture  are  those  in  Avhich  the  words  "Come" 
or  "  Go"  are  found,  and  one  from  each  set  is  placed  alongside  the  dates  of  the 
month,  and  surrounded  by  pretty  floral  wreaths.  Each  month  is  also  intro- 
duced by  a  suitable  quotation  in  which  both  words  occur,  and  also  by 
passages  numbering  the  month,  and  appropriately  describing  it.  Under  each 
date  there  are  lines  for  the  entry  not  only  of  Births,  but  also  of  Marriages  and 
Deaths.  No  one  can  examine  the  book  without  admiring  it,  and  being 
amazed  at  the  rich  portions  of  Scripture  which  have  been  brought  together 
under  the  principle  employed.' — Aberdeen  Journal.

library.' — Southern  Reporter. 

'The  narrative,  though  plain  and  unadorned,  will  be  found  of  great  interest, 
especially  on  the  part  of  those  who  appreciate  Scottish  life  and  character  in  its 
more  homely  phases.' — Northern  Whig. 

'  A  real  story — one  that  interests  and,  in  many  of  its  pages,  amuses,  and 
therefore  the  moral  is  not  obtruded  on  notice ;  but  its  moral  is  of  the  best. . . . 
We  never  saw  a  better  of  its  kind.' — Arbroath  Guide. 

'Altogether,  the  book  is  one  which  excites  the  deepest  interest,  and  conveys 

moral  in  every  chapter.' — Derry  Sentinel. 

'  Have  no  hesitation  in  commending,  not  only  to  those  who  love  a  good  and 
racily-told  tale,  but  to  those  who  are  sometimes  puzzled  to  know  what  sort  of 
a  gift-book  to  get  for  a  young  friend.' — Newcastle  Weekly  Chronicle. 

'  A  good  sketch  of  one  of  those  sterling  characters,  who,  in  spite  of  their 
surroundings,  develope  into  useful  members  of  society,  spreading  wholesome 
influence  around  them  in  some  of  the  least  reputable  quarters  of  our  great 
cities.' — Aberdeen  Journal. 

'  The  pages  are  full  of  pen  portraits,  which  must  have  been  drawn  from 
nature.  Mission-work,  as  presented  to  us  in  this  little  volume,  means  very 
much  more  than  a  good  story.  The  Christian  heart,  yearning  over  the  fallen 
and  lost,  will  find  in  it  much  to  enjoy  and  much  to  learn.  We  could  not  con- 
ceive of  any  book  more  suitable  for  a  prize,  or  better  fitted  to  place  temperance 
teaching  in  its  proper  niche.  Among  the  illustrations  are  some  choice  bits  of

EXTRACTS    FROM    TESTIMONIALS. 

From  Mrs.  M.  D ALTON,  Manor  Farm,  Nocton,  July  31st,   1888. 

I  have  given  your  Butter  Colour  a  fair  trial,  and  can  safely  say  it  is  the 
best  and  most  economical  preparation  for  colouring  butter  that  I  ever  saw, 
giving  it  a  splendid  colour  without  colouring  the  butter- milk,  and  being 
perfectly  tasteless. 

From  S.  PILLEY,  Esq.,  Marston,  Grantham,  June  20th,   1885. 
I  am  pleased  to  inform  you  that  after  trying  your  Butter  Colour  for  the 
last  year  I  have  found  it  the  best  preparation  I  have  ever  used,  and  can 
strongly  recommend  it.     It  imparts  to  the  Butter  a  beautiful  bright  uniform 
colour,  and  does  not  affect  the  butter-milk. 

Mrs.  ABBEY,  Chechen  Jon  Rectory,  ReaJing,  March  2nd,  1886. 
Says — "  She  likes  it  better  than  any  Colouring  she  has  ever  used." 
From  Mr.  R.  GALLIER,  Chemist,  Horsham. 
Gentlemen, — A  lsdy  tells  me  that  out  of  four  different  preparations 
yours  was  the  only  one  that  gave  a  satisfactory  result. 

From  Mrs.  CLARKE,  Denmead,   Cosham,  Hants,  May  6th,   1886. 

Piease  oblige  Mrs.  Clarke  by  sending  to  her  at  the  enclosed  address  box 
of  Butter  Powder,  for  which  order  for  2s.  6d.  is  enclosed.  Mrs.  C.  was  much 
pleased  with  the  Powder  and  Colouring.

SPECIMEN  TESTIMONIALS  RECEIVED. 
From  R.  HAMMOND,  Esq.,  Pitts  Hill  Farm,  Turuey,  Beds.,  Aug.  3,  1886. 
I  have  given  your  Foot-Kot  Paste  a  fair  trial,  and  find  it  the  best  remedy 
I  have  ever  tried.  Please  send  two  more  Jars  of  same  size  as  last. 
From  ROBERT  WRIGHT,  Esq.,  Norton  Heath,  Lincoln,  Feb.  2nd,  1887. 
I  consider  Hayward's  Foot-Rot  Paste  the  best  I  have  had,  as  it  is  more 
gradual  and  sure  in  its  effects  than  the  burning  ointments  that  are  recom- 
mended.    You  are  quite  at  liberty  to  make  use  of  this  Testimonial.
