This small volume presents a series of pictures of life in the Fijian and Samoan Islands of the South Pacific. They are most interesting and graphic, and convey a large amount of information respecting these islands—their history, their geography and scenery, their products, the character and customs of the people, their evangelization by missionaries, and many other things. During the past year the attention of this world has been attracted toward Samoa by the political troubles there between its rival kings; and this pleasant volume will meet the public interest thus created, with its vivid and entertaining sketches. It is attractively illustrated.—The Lutheran Observer.

"Jottings from the Pacific, Fiji and Samoa," by Emma H. Adams, is included among the volumes of a Young People's Library series; but we do not see any reason why the parents of young people may not join in a careful perusal of this special issue. It contains a pleasing record of observations and incidents in the Fijian and Samoan Islands; and one enjoys what is written all the more because of the simplicity and directness of the author-narrator's style. It occurs to us that a missionary society meeting could be made doubly interesting by the reading aloud of many passages from this book.—The Interior.

This book is one volume of the Young People's Library series. It contains 160 pages, is fully illustrated, and will be sent postpaid for 60 cents. Send for circular giving complete list of books published in the Library, with press notices and description of each book. Address, PACIFIC PRESS PUB. CO., OAKLAND, CAL., OR 43 BOND ST., N. Y.
