TRUE RICHES; or, WEALTH WITHOUT WINGS,
NOTICES OF THE PRESS.
This volume is written by T.S. Arthur, the most popular of all our American writers on domestic subjects. His intention is to direct the reader to the real riches of life, the wealth which cannot be taken away by the adverse events of fortune. The true wisdom of life, he shows us, is to place our fortune in ourselves, to make our own minds rich in intellectual treasures, and our hearts true to the legitimate purposes and ends of life. When the doctrine of this little volume becomes universally prevalent, a new era of happiness will dawn upon mankind.--_G.o.dey"s Lady"s Book_.
Mr. Arthur, in this volume, impresses upon his readers the importance of laying up treasures in the really profitable way--moral and intellectual treasures, which, in all the storms of ill-fortune, never leave their possessor without ample resources. The world acknowledges the truth of his moral, but often forgets to reduce it to practice. It therefore, becomes the duty of the world"s moral teachers, of which Mr. Arthur is one of the most successful, to impress the truth by a well-written narrative.--_Scott"s Weekly_.
