TEMPERANCE SONG BOOK.

By Barbara C. Stickney

The new work entitled "Temperance and Gospel Songs" is now ready. It is well bound, and contains one hundred pages of the choicest music, nearly all of which is new, having been written expressly for this work. It is designed more especially as a temperance book, and meets a want that has long existed, and been felt by all temperance workers. The object and merits of the book are truly represented in the preface as follows:—

"In preparing the following pages, the object has been to present earnest, stirring words and music which shall meet the demands of the temperance work in all its branches. With the exception of a few valuable selections, both words and music are new, written especially for the book by the best talent in the land. Among the authors of new music are 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. Giffee, Elisha A. Hoffman, Frank M. Davis, W. J. Bostwick, L. B. Jewell, and R. B. Mahaffey. Among the authors of new words are F. E. Belden, E. R. Latta, S. Fillmore Bennett, Corie F. Davis, W. C. Gage, Eliza H. Morton, Mrs. L. D. A. Stuttle, Mrs. E. P. Hakes, Laura C. Nourse, Juliette Estelle Prescott, Julia E. Lloyd, R. F. Cottrell, and others."

Our temperance clubs should not delay in procuring a supply of these books, as they will greatly aid in making their meetings interesting. Orders can be sent directly to the Pacific Press, Oakland, Cal., or the books can be obtained of the local tract societies, which should keep a supply on hand. Price: single copies, 30cts.; by the hundred, 25cts. each.
