Book Description

Excerpt from Fifty Years and Beyond: Or Gathered Gems for the Aged There are numerous volumes for children and youth. Books abound for young men and young women, and for men and women in life's various relations and pursuits, but only a few volumes have ever been prepared for those Who are passing through the afternoon and evening of life. There are numerous periodicals for children and youth, and young people, and departments in many more for these classes, but there are no periodicals, and no depart ments in any, for the aged. This volume is a religious miscellany for the mature and the aged. But, it is intended to do more than simply pro vide interesting and entertaining reading for such persons. Fhe author has sought to enrich its pages by such articles as Will impart instruction and comfort to the aged, teaching how the later years of life may be spent, so that they shall constitute the happiest and most useful of all life's periods.
