"Story of Pitcairn Island."—By Rosalind Amelia Young, a native daughter. Pitcairn Island, one of the volcanic gems of the Pacific, has been heard of wherever the English language has been spoken. The story of the working out of the problem of human life on its limited territory reads stranger and more thrilling in many respects than a romance. But most, if not all, of the tales told and the books printed have been too fragmentary, or incorrect and misleading. It will be interesting to the friends of that miniature world to know that an authentic history has been written, and that by a native of the island, one to the manor born. Miss Rosa Young is one of the direct descendants of the mutineers of the Bounty. The book is a plain, unvarnished tale of Pitcairn and its inhabitants from its settlement to the year 1894. It is written with charming simplicity of style, which refreshes the reader and invites continued perusal. Illustrated with 26 engravings. Fourth edition, with appendix. Cloth, $1.00.

"The relation of crime to intemperance is well understood by men who have to deal with those who transgress the laws of the land. In the words of a Philadelphia judge, 'Rum and blood, I mean the shedding of blood, go hand in hand.'" "A district attorney in the city of Boston is reported as declaring that 'Ninety-nine out of every hundred of the crimes in our commonwealth are produced by intoxicating liquors.'" "Let those in positions of public trust take heed lest thru wine and strong drink they forget the law, and pervert judgment." '"Wo unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by wrong."' "Behind the liquor-dealer stands the mighty destroyer of souls." "Often he is forbidden to sell intoxicants to one who is drunk, or who is known to be a confirmed drunkard; but the work of making drunkards of the youth goes steadily forward. Upon the creating of the liquor appetite in the youth the very life of the traffic depends." "Should not the liquor-saloons that have wrought so much evil, be entirely abolished?" "Let the voices of the nation demand of its lawmakers that a stop be put to this infamous traffic." These startling sentences have been selected from a new sixteen-page tract just received from the press. They call attention in a marked way to the evils of the liquor traffic; and the responsibility for the continuance of this awful crime-producing agency is clearly indicated. We believe that our readers will be well repaid for a careful perusal of this tract. And you have friends who should receive the light contained in its truth-filled pages.
