promise of liappy results. Even those
that are earnestly made, alas, are too
easily broken or forgotten. Those that

lay much hold upon our consciences.
The people's vow here must have been
accepted, for the story ends with the

one, just as they were taken down by
a stenographer when they were delivered
to a large Sunday-school class.
Three lectures are given introductory
to the study of the books of the New
Testament. These deal with the New
Testament as a whole, the life of
Christ and the gospels and their
origin. The author's soundness and
evangelical spirit, his freedom from
the notions of modern critics, and his
belief in divine inspiration make him
a safe guide in his popular unfolding
of the authorship, purpose, conditions
and meaning of the several books.
Here and there there will be departures
from his interpretations on
the part of some interpreters, but in
no ease involving vital matters.
