Graduation Day Gifts

Books are divided into two classes, said Ruskin, “books of the hour, and books for eternity.” Among our beautiful gift books that furnish lasting inspiration and constant spiritual help for young people are the following:

Steps to Christ

The thirteen chapters of this favorite little volume are truly “steps” which lead to a close companionship with Him who “has linked Himself with the children of men by ties that are never to be broken.” These chapters are:

“God’s Love for Man,” “The Sinner’s Need of Christ,” “Repentance,” “Confession,” “Consecration,” “Faith and Acceptance,” “The Test of Discipleship,” “Growing Up into Christ,” “The Work and the Life,” “A Knowledge of God,” “The Privilege of Prayer,” “What to Do with Doubt,” and “Rejoicing in the Lord.”

Beautiful cloth, gilt edge, presentation edition, $1.00. Published in 23 different languages.

Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing

With this beautiful little work, the reader in imagination is taken back to the scene of the mountain side, amid the throng who listened eagerly to Christ’s wonderful sermon commonly known as “The Beatitudes.” Point by point the wisdom there uttered in simple parable form is presented, and practical spiritual lessons are suggested. Its general chapters are: “On the Mountain Side,” “The Beatitudes,” “The Spirituality of the Law,” “The True Motive in Service,” “The Lord’s Prayer,” and “Not Judging but Doing.” Each of these chapters contains thoughts to brighten the way, and lead the reader to a deeper realization of the blessings of real Christian service. Fully illustrated, rich cloth binding, price 75 cents.

The Advance Guard of Missions

The stories of the Mayhews, the Wesleys, Christian Frederick Schwartz, William Carey, the Judsons, and scores of other faithful men and women who pioneered in mission work, as given here, form one of the most thrilling missionary books ever published. It is more than a book of biographical sketches. It pulsates with the spirit that led these men and women out into the needy fields beyond, and kept them there in self-sacrificing work. Each sketch is illustrated, and is filled with incidents that instruct and inspire. 27 chapters. 347 pages. Handsome cloth binding, marbled edges, price $1.50.
