Now that the majority Of thinking
people have caught up intellectually
with the great prophetic minds of the
past generation, the great books of n
generation ago are again of exceptional
Interest. Conspicuous among such
books Is Remains Life Of Jesus which
has recently appeared among The Unit
Books. The fact that scores OF advance
orders were received from clergymeu
In all parts of the country throws ap
interesting light upon the religious
situation. Theology Is crumbling be.
fore real religion. and the Life OF
Jesus Is essentially religious book.
Like other Unit Books II appears to
be niSn enough in craze Tor anybodyS
taste and low enough IN price for ev.
erybody's purse. II may he obtained

title OF the first volume in an important
new SERIES with an introduction by DR..
Hamilton Wright Mabie. on lines radi.
cally different from those of the con
ventional biographies. which A. 4,

the great poet, but also the England
OF his time, and the manners. customs.
institutions and happenings, that help.

reflected in his poems. The author.
MIR. Tudor jerks. has made a special
study of the lives of certain of the
greatest writer's from the point OF
view OF personality and human interest
and he has succeeded In picturing q
living personality instead of the abb

biographies. Those who have read the
advance sheets have not hesitated to
predict an exceptional success for life
story so fresh and human that IL will
increase the interest of readers in tho
poet and his verse. II IL understood
that I'm the Days Of Chaucer" will ha
followed by similar picture Of
Shakespeares life and times.
