COMPREHENSIVE

TEACHERS' BIBLE.

The Only Teachers' Bible Published since the Revised Version.

The Highest Authorities describe it as BY FAR THE BEST. Rev. C. H. SPURGEON: 'It is just what a Teacher wants; I do not see how it could be better. I don't wonder you have so large demand.'

Rev. J. CLIFFORD, D.D., President of the Baptist Union: 'It supplies the precise information the Teacher asks for and should have.'

Rev. H. R. REYNOLDS, D.D., Principal of Cheshunt College: Exceeds both in range of subject matter and fulness of detail any similar effort; . . . leaves nothing to be desired.'

Rev. A. MACKENNAL, D.D., Ex-Chairman Congregational Union: The work is admirably done. For fulness, accuracy, and present-day intelligence I do not know any compendium equal to it.'

*The New Sheet Almanac for Parish Localisation.

THE CHURCH ALMANAC for 1889.

TO THE TRADE.

Booksellers and Newsagents requiring a really artistic and useful Almanac cannot do better than secure this one. Early orders are respectfully requested, as a large demand for copies has already

been made.

The following are a few testimonies as to the excellence of THE CHURCH ALMANAC:The DEAN OF ROCHESTER Says:-'It is the very best sheet Almanac I have ever seen.'

The RECORD says:-It is excellently adapted to parochial use.'

The BRITISH WEEKLY: We heartily recommend Mr. Sherlock's Church Almanac for 1889. It is well printed in two colours, with an elaborate and tasteful border, and contains illustrations of the whole of the Cathedrals of England and

Wales.'

The Rock: Everything that Mr. Sherlock produces is pretty certain to be distinctive in character, and above the average degree of excellence. His CHURCH ALMANAC for 1889 is an instance. It should be very popular.'

The BANNER: Mr. Frederick Sherlock has added a fresh success to that which he has already scored in his Church Monthly, by producing a Church Almanac suited for localisation, which excels in design and execution anything we have

yet seen.'

Specimen copies with terms may be had on application to the Manager, Mr. BUCHANAN, Church Monthly Office, 30 and 31 New Bridge Street, London, E.C.
