It is ordained for worthier. the author has preached to the children of his congregation. Nearly a fourth of the 165 pages in the book are, however, given to the "foreword" and to a discussion of the difficult problems of "Bridging the Chasm" so as to get the Sabbath school more closely related to the life of the church. The author says: "The modern church has come to realize that that church is doomed to failure where the chief feeder for her life is drawn away by false ideals. We must get rid of this hiatus between the life of the school and the life of the church." He indicates the solution of the problem as follows: "How is this closer union between the church and the Sunday school to be consummated "Primarily by relating the church members more closely to the Sunday school.

"Wild Woods and Waterways," by William Chalmers Covert, (The Westminster Press, Philadelphia, $1.35 net) relates the personal experiences and observations of the author. He is a Presbyterian clergyman, and he achieved a notable success with a previous work, "Glory of the Pines."

Of course you may prefer to accept the Other Offer printed on this page, which, except that it requires spot cash, is in some respects better than this one; but you can accept this offer now, and change it to the terms of the Other Offer on this page when you receive a bill after January 1, 1915. The reason for making this unusual proposition and radical departure in method Is that 1 wish to make it just as easy and convenient as possible for every Covenanter in the world to become a constant reader of the Christian Nation, because every vital feature of our church life is carefully reported in its columns, and as Dr. W. P. Johnston keeps urging people, "you cannot do without your church paper!"

The Three Dollars is the price of the Christian Nation for one year and a half, at the rate of $2.00 a year. The Life of Lincoln in two volumes is a premium which I am offering to induce new subscribers, and this offer is made primarily to secure new subscribers. Included In the number of those who have already been attracted by this extraordinary offer are college presidents, theological professors, ministers of the Gospel, and teachers—persons whose libraries must be kept up to a high standard, and the Tarbell Life of Lincoln which 1 am giving away as a premium to new subscribers. Is a twovolume Library Edition. Prof. Wm. M. Sloane says that Covenanters are the greatest readers of good books in the world, therefore it is that I know you will be delighted with these volumes. 2. But OLD subscribers can also have the Lincoln volumes free. Any old subscriber residing in America who will send me $6 to pay for their paper for three years in advance, will receive the 2-vol.
