THIS new song book is fast gaining the popularity which its merits deserve. It is greatly in advance of the temperance song books of the day, and adds much to the interest of temperance meetings wherever used. The words and music are mostly new, from the hands of our best authors.
Among the authors of new music we notice such names as D. S. Hakes, Dr. W. O. Perkins, H. S. Perkins, Wm. F. Sherwin, W. A. Ogden, T. C. O'Kane, J. A. Butterfield, Dr. J. B. Herbert, W. T. Giffe, Elisha A. Hoffman, Frank M. Davis, W. J. Bostwick, and others.
The book contains a good assortment of rousing congregational pieces, which are easily learned and popular, together with a large number especially adapted to choir and quartette use, also a few anthems and male quartettes.

It is the best book of the kind I have ever seen."—C. HENRY MEAD, Conductor Silver Lake, N. Y., Temperance Camp-Meeting.
