Modern Science and Modern Christianity

Is your foundation sure? Are you safely anchored? The flood-gates of error and deception are wide open, and the tides of evolutionary science are sweeping many away from their moorings. The reasonings of infidelic science are fast taking the place of Bible truth, especially in regard to creation, and this, too, in many of the pulpits of the land.

Our book, with the above title, by Prof. Geo. McCready Price, meets the great need of the hour by showing the absurdity of many of the deductions of worldly science, and the conflicting and ever changing opinions of scientists. On the other hand it shows the perfect agreement of the Bible and true science; and by its logical reasoning not only successfully refutes false-science theories, but is a strong appeal to stand by the old Guide-book which has stood the test of the ages.

If you are firmly established, your friend or neighbor may not be. Secure one for him.

The Essentials of Our Language

A practical guide in the study of the science of language by Prof. Geo. W. Rine. The book has been written with a special view to the needs of many young and middle-aged persons, who, unable to attend school, are desirous of a better use of the English language, and are willing to teach themselves. Such will not find themselves embarrassed with needless rules, but will find abundant practical examples and helpful suggestions to aid them. The book is also well adapted to serve as a natural transition from the study of grammar to rhetoric in the schools, and will be found a convenient side help to teachers.

The Boy Puzzle

The science of child training, treated by a master in experience. A thoroughly practical work by Joseph F. Flint, being the direct outgrowth of his personal work with and for boys. His daily intimate contact with them for a long period of time, and under varied conditions and circumstances, has afforded him an excellent opportunity to note their weak and strong points of character, and to study the relative development of mental, moral, and spiritual qualities in connection with what he could learn of their earlier home surroundings.

The frequent confession of parents of their inability to control and train their children, has led the writer to place some of the most practical suggestions and helpful information in book form.

To parents who prize the old fashioned, Christian family life, while believing in progress, is the little work cordially dedicated.
