Description
Condition note: Vintage book is in very lightly used and clean condition for its age. Spine is quite tight and cover/spine have very little wear. Owner marks in front.**
In this book, the author has large experience in the practical affairs of life, has brought within the reach of every intelligent father and mother, every man and woman, lay and professional, a vast fund of information on life and its laws, on health and its requisites, on disease and its remedies. The book is written in clear, simple, beautiful language, instructive to the learner, hopeful to the despondent, cheering to the sick, and restful to the weary.
It presents a better way, which, though in the shadows of a sick world, is flecked with the sunshine of God's love, and ever-healing hope. It reveals to us a simpler, sweeter life, fuller of joy and gladness, with more room for that helpful service which it is "more blessed to give than to receive."
