DAVID COOMBE.

A TRAP TO CATCH A SUNBEAM.

By the Author

of "A Merry Christmas," &c. 18mo. Second edition. "A little book, and a quaint title. There are better things taught in it than in many an ambitious treatise of philosophy and psychology. It has lessons of human happiness, of cleanliness, and active benevolence, which make it desirable to circulate it widely. Buy the trap, reader, set it in your bosom, and you will catch a sunbeam in the darkest day.” Christian Register.

"It may be read through in a few minutes, and should be read by every body. It is truly a gem ·multum in parvo · a sunbeam in itself. No one can arise from its perusal without feeling brighter and better."- Mercantile Journal.

"This is one of the best little books we have ever read. Had it the prestige of Dickens's name upon its title-page, it would circulate through the land; and Dickens would be willing to own it." - New England Offering.
