"When he was within twenty yards
I stooped down, and grasping Gumbo
by the ankles from behind, lifted his
legs from under him, making him fail
forward on his hands. I ran him right
at the lion, wheel-barrow fashion, the
bewildered nigger instinctively put-
ting one hand before the other before
he knew what he was about. This
brought us within a spring of the lion.
I hurled his legs forward over his head
with such force that when they struck
the ground his body rose and he de-
scribed a convulsive somersault. This
carried him two lengths ahead of me-
into the very jaws of the lion, if the
latter had stayed "-

SOCIAL ASPECTS OF CHRIST- Presbyterian Board of Publication

IANITY. By Professor Richard T. Ely, of Johns
Hopkins University. 12mo, 90 cents.

Professor Ely, although in thorough sympathy with evangelical Christianity, finds something to criticise in the wide divergence between the professions and the practices of the Church. In this new work of his he sets forth fearlessly and yet in a kindly spirit the faults that are apparent to the eyes of a thoughtful layman. It is a book calculated to do much good and deserves to be read by all members of all creeds.
