“A brief but wonderful story of a man’s downfall, his rescue and his recovery. His experiences were such as even few reformed men pass through.”--Methodist Protestant.

REV. GILBERT I. WILSON

=Good Bird, the Indian=

Home Mission Junior Study Course. Illustrated, 16mo, boards, net 40c; paper, net 25c.

Who wouldn’t like to sit down by an old Indian and hear from his lips the story of his life and the lives of the people? Certainly every American boy or girl would, and that is just what is offered to the fortunate boys and girls who use this either as a text book in their Home Missionary Societies, or as their very own book.

=The Fresh Air Child=

12mo, cloth, net 50c.

This simple little tale will carry the sure appeal of unprotected and unparented childhood to the heart of the reader. As a campaign document in the interests of fresh air and better homes for the stifled and abandoned children of our great cities, it will make an irresistible and most effective appeal.

CHARLES LINCOLN WHITE

=Prince and Uncle Billy=

A First Reader in Home Missions. 16mo, cloth, net 50c, or net 75c.

“Prince” is a pony, once owned by the Indians, and “Uncle Billy” an old horse, used formerly by a frontier missionary on his preaching journeys. These too, and many other animals tell missionary stories and other incidents of their earlier lives.

=Children of Labrador=

Illustrated, 16mo, cloth, net 60c.

It is hard to picture a more delightful addition to “The Children’s Missionary Series” than this vivid story of Dr. Grenfell’s land. Its simplicity and clearness appeals to children, yet grown-ups will be equally fascinated in its descriptions of the children of the Eskimos and fishermen of this barren land, so pathetically described by an old native as “wonderful bleak and dreary.”
