1881013886New York: Robert Carter and Brothers 1881. Cloth. A Good Copy. 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall. 112p. The author here deals with "worldly amusements" beginning with music dancing theatre and gambling. She warns of the young girl who attends the theatre just one time then becomes addicted and attends again and again. There she sees actors in brilliant costumes without realizing they often are of a terrible moral character. Imagine a man she does not know from the seat behind her peering over her shoulder to "look at the program" on in an opera men actually touch a woman. All of these terrible violations trouble the writer of this description of the book but alas the book must be offered if only to prevent young men and young girls discovering the terrible allure of "worldly amusements."--It would appear that the church members are tired of a drab life and sometimes seek the vain attractions of the world. It is likely there song would be "Tempted and Tired" rather than the standard gospel song tear on p. 26-27 not affecting text. Robert Carter and Brothers unknown
