Stories of Hell’s Commerce

"Stories of Hell's Commerce; or the Liquor Traffic in Its True Light." Compiled and edited by Elton R. Shaw. Price, cloth, $1.50; half morocco, $2.00. Shaw Publishing Company, No. 2 Pearl Street, Grand Rapids, Mich.
The volume consists of interesting stories, true incidents, striking illustrations, poetry, song, etc., which portray the evils of the curse of intoxicating drinks. Samuel Dickie, the noted temperance orator, and president of Albion College, furnishes the introduction. Many of the compilations are from the greatest of temperance workers, such as John G. Woolley, John P. St. John, John B. Gough, L. A. Banks, D. L. Moody, Wendell Phillips, and others. There are ten full-page half-tones, eleven line engravings, and eight illustrated poems. We wish every one could read the forcible arguments, the pathetic stories, the striking illustrations, of this book. We do not believe a liquor dealer could calmly, thoughtfully read it and continue his business. Every temperance worker should have it. It is sold by subscription. May it have a large circulation.
