ARRINGTON. BIBLE HISTORY FOR CHILDREN. With a Short History of Christianity after the Days of the Apostles. With Illustrations. Small crown 8vo. 1s. 6d. "This book is eminently adapted for children's capabilities, and has the great advantage of keeping as nearly as possible to Bible language. It is an excellent little book."--_Christian Commonwealth_. "A little work that will commend itself to all who have to do with the religious training of the young."--_Church Bells_. "The work is well and carefully done, the main current of the Bible story being rendered with point and brevity in the very spirit of the Scriptures."--_School Board Chronicle_. By WILLIAM CHARLES METCALFE. STEADY YOUR HELM; or, Stowed Away. With Six Illustrations. Extra crown 8vo. 5s. ABOVEBOARD. A Tale of Adventure on the Sea. With Six Illustrations. Extra crown 8vo. 5s. "This is a delightfully exciting tale of the adventures of two sailor lads, with icebergs, pirates, and similar horrors of the sea.

"It is a long time since we have read anything racier, breezier, more healthful and invigorating than Mr. Metcalfe's fine sea story."--_Methodist Recorder._ FRANK WEATHERALL; or, Life in the Merchant Marine. A Sea Story for Youth. Illustrated. Small crown 8vo. 2s. By Mrs. SAXBY. TOM AND HIS CROWS. Illustrated. Crown 8vo. 2s. 6d. VIKING BOYS. With Four Illustrations. Crown 8vo. 3s. 6d. "Wholesome and manly in tone, the book is thoroughly fresh and natural." --_Morning Post_. "We prophesy that the tale of the Viking boys and their wild deeds will become as popular as 'The Lads of Lunda,' and all the other stories with which Mrs. Saxby has delighted us."--_Athenaeum_. THE LADS OF LUNDA. With Illustrations. Crown 8vo. 2s. 6d. "A perfect book for boys--generous, wholesome, manly in tone, and withal thoroughly young, fresh, and natural. We recommend the book heartily, not only to all boys, but to everybody who knows and likes brave boys."-_Guardian_. "A capital book. The tales are full of fun and pathos."--_Athenaeum_.
