The World Beautiful
By LILIAN WHITING
I know of no volumes of sermons published in recent years which are

and best in his nature, as are the series of essays entitled "The

Age_.

BEAUTIFUL; FRIENDSHIP; OUR SOCIAL SALVATION; LOTUS EATING; THAT

The world beautiful about which she writes is no far-off event to which
all things move, but the every-day scene around us filled by a spirit
which elevates and transforms it.--PROF. LOUIS J. BLOCK, in _The
Philosophical Journal_.
No one can read it without feeling himself the better and richer and
happier for having done so.--_The Independent_.

My conviction is that every preacher, reformer, religious editor, and
Christian worker should read the books by Lilian Whiting.--REV. W. H.
ROGERS, in _The Christian Standard_.
"After Her Death" has given me the light and help I have so long craved;
it has given me comfort and strength which _no other_ book has ever
done.--CORDELIA L. COMMORE.

I never saw anything on earth before which looked so much as if just
brought from heaven by angel hands as this new edition of "From

heard the silver trumpets blow. This exquisite book reminds me of
them.--SARAH HOLLAND ADAMS.

It suggests and hints at the ultimate significance of scientific
investigation with relation to the totality of thought in a very fresh
and suggestive way.... The spirit of her book, like that of its
predecessors, is admirable.--_The Outlook_.
A book from her pen means new flashes of insight, a revelation of
spiritual truth almost Emersonian in kind.--_Chicago Chronicle_.

The World Beautiful

By LILIAN WHITING. 16mo. Cloth, $1.00 _net_. Decorated cloth, $1.25
_net_.
The careful and repeated reading of "The World Beautiful in Books" would
be a liberal education.--_Philadelphia Telegraph_.
It is like a Greek urn filled with priceless relics. Hundreds of brains,
ancient and modern, are daintily picked of their best thoughts, and
there is scarcely a page that is not enriched with some rifled treasure.
It is, in fact, concentrated food for select minds.--_Chicago Post_.
To read it is like being taken informally into a great assemblage of
poets, romancers, and thinkers, while all are at their best, and being
introduced to them by a near friend of all.--_The Era_, Philadelphia.

All the famous names associated with Boston pass in review before
the reader of this apotheosis of the intellectual life of

material of which it is made up, and Miss Whiting has fulfilled her task
with special literary grace and discretion.--_Albany Argus_.
A volume to place on the same shelf with the "Yesterdays With Authors"
of the late James T. Fields and the "Literary Friends and Acquaintances"
of William D. Howells.--_Cleveland Plain Dealer_.
* * * * *
The Life Radiant

_net_.
In this book Miss Whiting aims to portray a practical ideal for daily
living that shall embody the sweetness and exaltation and faith that
lend enchantment to life. It is, in a measure, a logical sequence of
"The World Beautiful," leading into still diviner harmonies.
