y
OF
THE SCRIPTURES
TO many persona the Scrip-
tures are very dry and un-
intereeting reading, and
very difficult of correct under-
standing and confuses many by
the different interpretations, ac-
cording to the denomination in-
terested, Like party politicians
they all see itaheir own partic-
ular way when in reality there
is only one RIGHT way, the
way the Master had in mind.
The author of "The Master
Key," like Caruso, seems endow-
ed with an inspired mind and
makes Scripture reading so plain
and interesting that you feel like
finishing it before you lay it
aside.
