The Parables of Jeses. By Philip Coghlan, C.P. (Wash bourne.) 2s. 6d. n.

"I have endeavoured in simple languiage to bring hom-le

to the reader the lessons which the Parables teach." In the Preface to his book Fr. Coghlan thus makes clear his aim, a-nd he has achieved his end with a fair mneasure of

success. The little book is the outcome of learning and

of dilioent thouglht, vet it ough.>t to fall within the compre

hension of every class of reader by reason of its simple

diction andl clear explanations. It will be fouind uiseful

particularlv by- teaclhers or those engaged in the duty of

religioius instruction, as a helpful and able introduction to

thie Parrables. We desxire also to call attetntion to his

arranaement of the Parables, which we thinlk more con

duieive to an intellicent stidy of them thani if tlhey had

been arranged in strict loyical order.
