A New Book by Charles Frederic Goss
More Important than the Simple or the Strenuous Life is the Home Life
"HUSBAND, WIFE AND HOME"
By CHARLES FREDERIC GOSS
Author of "The Redemption of David Corson," etc., etc.
"This is the kind of book that one desires to read aloud to
all the family. Its captivating stories, humorous often,
pathetic at times, will brighten one's face into a broad smile
or bring the tear unbidden. The stories are the windows that
Dr. Goss opens upon the practical themes that brighten every
page of this winsome book. It will drive away the "blues" and
make a cross and glum person look pleasant and feel pleasant.
The divorce courts would be forced to go out of business if
its blessed home truths were put into practice."

that reckon themselves above the average. The whole book is
pervaded by strong and pure moral feeling, and the chapters
are well dotted with pithy anecdotes and amusing
stories."--_The Outlook._
