The Burden Made Light. cordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. binding; 103 pages. Price, 75 cts. We are of the opinion that thousands of invalids and shut-ins will call down benedictions upon the head of the author for giving them this book whose contents will cheer and comfort and strengthen them in their weak- ness and suffering. May God, the Source of all true com- fort, grant that this booklet will make light the burden of many a cross-bearer! By Alfred Doerffler. Con- Blue cloth Concordia Religious Unionism. By John H. C. Fritz. Price, Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. 16 pages. 5 cts. The author shows that religious unionism is contrary to God’s Word and to man’s best interests, that it leads to the profanation of God’s name and the final denial of all truth, and logically ignores the fact that the Church’s sole purpose is the salvation of man’s soul and God’s glory. Chinese Lutheran Witness. Hankow, China. from Rey. Henry O. Theiss, 17 Yun Chin Road, Han- kow, China. Price, 35 cts., postpaid; three subscrip- tions, $1.00. This is a biweekly published in the interest of our mission among the “Sons of Han.” While published in China, it can be read by any Chinaman in this country, since China has only one written language. Perhaps you could do your laundryman or some other Chinaman of your acquaintance an inestimable service by having this Chinese Lutheran Witness come to him every two weeks.

Christliches Familienleben im Lichte des Wortes Gottes. By Heinrich Stallmann. 94 pages. Order through Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. The tendency of the age in which we live is to break up the old kind of family life. Economic pressure, amuse- ments, apartment houses, the desire of women to earn a livelihood even after marriage, and other things have gone far to break up the modern home. The sixteen chap- ters of this book are infended to bring us back to old- fashioned family life and to create in us a dislike for modern home-wrecking ideas. Der Herr ist wahrhaftig auferstanden! By Dr. O. Willkomm. 36 pages. Order through Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. A fine defense of the doctrine of Christ’s resurrection, the key-stone of the Christian religion. The venerable author still writes with the vivacity of youth and has here produced an apology well worthy of careful study. God grant that it may strengthen many Christians in their trust in Jesus as the triumphant Savior and lead such as have not yet learned to accept Jesus as the Christ to Him, who rose also for them _ The rn Seminary Edition of Choruses and Quartets, Classical and Modern, for Male Voices.
