A Plea for Bridging the Chasm. Illustrated, 12mo, cloth, net $1.25.

“Dr. Herrick has given his life to missionary work among the Mohammedans. This book is the mature expression of his profound belief that the followers of the Arabian Prophet are to be won to Christianity by patiently showing Jesus Christ, with kindly appreciation of the good while fully gauging the deadly evil of their religious system. Opinions from leading missionaries to Mohammedans, in all parts of the world have been brought together in the book.—Henry Otis Dwight, LL.D.

A Glimpse of the Heart of China

Illustrated, 16mo, cloth, net 60c.

“A simple, clear story from a physician’s point of view of the sickness, the unnecessary suffering, the ignorant and superstitious practice of the native physician, contrasted with the comfort and healing that follow in the wake of the skillful treatment of a Christian Chinese ‘woman doctor,’ has in it many elements of interest. The reader of these pages feels that he has truly had a ‘glimpse of the heart of China.’”—Missionary Voice.

With Introduction by George Smith, C.I.E., Author of “The Conversion of India.” Illustrated, 12mo, cloth, net 75c.

“The author reveals, as only an expert could, the life of the Marathi women of Western India. With delicate touch, but realistic effect, she draws back the curtain that conceals the Zenana.... The Missionary with the native Bible-woman is seen on her daily round of love and mercy, in the home, the hospital and the school, winning the weary and despairing women and widows.”—George Smith.
