OWHERE IN CANADA is there to be found so wide a range of Sunday School Library and Prize Books as is presented in our Great Stock Room. There the visitor sees shelf upon shelf laden with thousands of the brightest books produced by the world's great Publishing Houses.

The grand literature sent out by the Religious Tract Society, the high-class stories that come from Nelson & Sons, and other wellknown Publishers, and, if last in mention, by no means least in interest to Canadian Schools, the already large list of Our Own Publications, comprising such authors as ANNIE S. SWAN, "PANSY," S. R. CROCKETT, as well as many clever Canadian writers-all await the selection of the visiting purchaser or the letter order.

What better Christmas gift to your School than a new Library, or a new
lot of books to supplement those which possibly by this time have been pretty
well read by the scholars.

This year we have a complete new Sunday-School Catalogue.
Write for it and our terms.

METHODIST

HYMN AND TUNE BOOK

Our Present Hymn-Book with Suitable

Tunes Attached.

A LONG-FELT WANT OF THE CHURCH SUPPLIED.

e

HOIRS AND CONGREGATIONS of the Methodist Church in Canada will be glad to know that the new Hymn and Tune Book, for which they have been waiting some time, is at last completed, and in the hands of the printer. Realizing the need of an improved Tune Book, the General Conference of 1890 authorized the publication of a book which would combine the hymns ad tunes in one volume, on the plan which is now adopted by nearly all the leading denominations.

In its preparation prominent and successful Choir Leaders and other competent musicians hav for the last three years worked faithfully to produce such a book as would meet the needs of our Church for many years to come.

The book will contain about 350 tunes, which have been chosen on account of their suita' ility for congregational singing. As many as possible of the familiar tunes, which have become endeared to our congregations through long use, have been retained, while a number of first-c ass new ones have been inserted, so as to provide variety and suit all tastes.

The book is being edited by Messrs. F. H. Torrington, Organist of the Metropolitan Church, and T. C. Jeffers, Organist of the Central Church, Toronto. This is a sufficient guarantee that the work will be efficiently done.

the book ready before the end of December.

TO WHICH IS ADDED

“THE STORY OF METHODISM IN THE DOMINION OF CANADA,
By REV. HUGH JOHNSTON, M.A., D.D.

AND

"THE STORY OF THE EPWORTH LEAGUE,”

By REV. JOSEPH F. BERRY, D.D.

Seventieth Thousand, Revised and Enlarged,

Embellished with nearly 600 portraits and views, with Classified Index of
nearly 3,000 References.

Some Reasons why it Should be in Every Home :

This Story is the work of a master hand. Prof. A B. Hyde, D.D., has been fitted for the work by fifty years of observation and Christian experience, and by wide and careful research. He has conversed with those who had talked with Wesley. He has presented the "Story" as one who knew it well would tell it at his own fireside. For perspicuity of thought his writings are noted, and for accuracy and true value of statement, as for correctness in detail and breadth of knowledge, they may be confidently relied upon.

"I have read the old, old story' with new interest and pleasure. It is interesting, captivating, and we think the whole Story, as Dr. Hyde tells it, will be read with pleasure and profit. I wish it success every way.

Rev. Dr. Wm. Rice,

City Librarian, Springfield, Mass.

Chancellor David H. Moore said, to the assembled University at Denver, Colorado: "There is nothing so fascinating in Howells or George Eliot, and it is all true. you must all read as Dr. Hyde draws them.'

"THE HERO OF CANADA."

By D. B. READ, Q.C..... Historian of the County of York Law Association.

MR. READ has spent years in the preparation of this work, and places before his readers a most readable biography of the illustrious officer to whom Canada owes a lasting debt of gratitude.
