Some books die, or serve their purpose with one edition. Not so with this little volume. More than a score of years ago it appeared in a cheap form under the caption of "Bible Standard of Regeneration and Holiness." Ten thousand copies were published. Again it was republished as "Popular and, Radical Holiness Contrasted." The second edition was soon exhausted. Later, a good Quaker brother of California paid the greater part of the expense on a third edition, simply to give away.

     Many ministers and Christian workers, with a host of Holiness professors who had a mere profession only, have been led to dig deeper and obtain a more satisfactory experience as a result of reading the book. A leading Holiness preacher wrote the author that the five chapters on "Temptation" were well worth the price of the book. If this fourth edition will accomplish a proportionate amount of good with the former ones, we will humbly thank God and praise Him that it has not been published in vain. Yours for a clean, rather than a big work,
