i' The Crux of Pastoral Medicine.'
The Crux of Pastoral Medicine ' is one of the latest books published by Fr, Pustet and Co. It is intended chiefly for pastors of souls, parents, nurses, and medical men, and Ss, 'we believe, the only book on the subject of Pastoral Medicine in the English tongue. It does not treat of such subjects as hygiene, nursing, etc., but goes straight to the heart of one of the most difficult ami— especially in our day— necessary branches of practical theology in which both parent and nurse and priest and physician must be accurately informed'so as to avoid collision with the natural and the positive law in the exercise of their respective vocations. The dangers of nascent life are treated with great delicacy ar*d yet with perfect clearness, and in pleasant and flowing style, and the book is enriched with qaio/tations from the latest ecclesiastical legislation. The volume is a hasndy one of ato,out 170 pages, neatly bound and printed. (One dollar net. Fr. Pustet and Co., 52 Barclay street, New York, and all Catholic booksellers advertising in our columns).
The Australian Catholic Truth Society
The Australian Catholic Truth Society continues to Issue a rapid succession of its admira/ble penny pamphlets. The latest to hand are : a biography of Louise de la Valliere, by the Rev. E. J. Kelly, D.D. ; ' The Blessed Virgin in English Poetry ' ; and ' The Miraculous Conception and Virgin Birth of Christ.' These fully maintain the high standard which the A.C.T.S. set for itself in the earlier issues of its publications. We
cordially commend this great and good work to the Catholic clergy, Catholic householders, Catholic societies, confraternities, clubs, apul libraries, and to all'who are engaged in the education of youth. We know of no more stuitable and useful prize-books lor our Catholic schools than neatly bound volumes of the Australian Catholic Truth Society's publications. (W. P. Linehan, 309-311 Little Collins street, MelbDurne, and all Catholic booksellers advertising in our columns).
