VIII.
THE TWIN BROTHERS; OR, LESSONS OF CHARITY.

18mo, muslin gilt, 37½ cents.

The story contained in this book abounds with interesting incidents to
keep the attention awake, and suggests many important lessons to reward
a diligent perusal. There is a simplicity and truthfulness about the
characters which beguiles the reader into an impression that he is occupied
with a narrative of veritable facts. It teachers the young, in a most
persuasive manner, the importance of right principles of action, and
shows them the extreme danger of ever beginning to wander from the
path of honor and integrity.—Evangelist.
