COMING TO THE KTNG.-A book of H.iis
Devotion for Children. By Grace Webster
Hinsdale. New York: Arson ID. E. Ran
il dolph, Publisher gaA sal SOB
+, Every one who has ever attempted to lead
the devotions of children must be aware Of the
difficulties which attend the discharge of that
duty. Few persons have the ability to arrange
even their own prayers in fitting words, and
when called upon to answer the child's ques-
ton, ssWhat shall say to God ~ they are still
more helpless. The consequence is painful
lack of propriety and fitness in what should
be the most interesting and beautiful exercise
of the chiid's day. A realization Of this def
cheney has suggested the preparation of the lit
tie book named above, and we think it viii be
found to supply, in great degree, a lack which
every thoughtful mother feels. The author is
of that class Of religionists who prefer to call
themselves evangelical, but she has carefully
excluded from her pages everything which has
seemed to have sectarian character Her
work can hardly fail to be found useful in
teaching the little soul how best to offer its
worship and desires to God.
The external appearance of the volume be-
fits its simple and beautiful purpose.
