" The book is well arranged ; we have sections 

 or chapters which treat of sorrow or grief generally, 

 on fortune and the loss of fortune, on the loss of 

 friends, the loss of children, on sickness and pain,, 

 old age, and on sorrow for sin. Then come sections 

 dealing with the sources of consolation. 

 Mr. Orme has certainly been industrious, as the 

 reader will gather from the fact that nearly two 

 hundred different authors are laid under contri- 

 bution for this book, not counting anonymous 

 writers and extracts from magazines. * The Trea- 

 sure Book of Consolation ' is admirably selected 

 and edited in every respect, and should be welcome 

 in every household in the land." Court Circular. 



" We cannot remember a book of this class which 

 covers the whole subject so well as the volume 

 before us. The selections are judiciously and aptly 

 chosen, traverse the whole field of English literature, 

 and are dexterously dovetailed into each other. 

 The book is sumptuously printed and handsomely 

 got up." Literary World. 



" To all who are in sorrow or suffering we may 

 safely commend this 'Treasure-Book.' . . . . 

 Mr. Orme has made the selection in a truly Catholic 

 spirit, with exquisite taste, and also with a delicate 

 spiritual discernment and a keen insight into human 

 needs. His book will be the means of carrying 

 comfort to many a troubled heart." The Freeman. 



"The excerpts are vey appropriate and well- 

 classified. . . . There is much to admire in 

 this volume, much that is very touching." Literary 

 Churchman.
