intensely interesting, the illustrations are actually illu-
minating, and the mechanical make-up as to type and

maker’s art. Every family in the Missouri Synod ought
to have a copy.

Medallions. Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo.
Prices, $1.00 and 50 cts.

The smaller medallion is in the con-
