Under the title of "A Sermon For To day" these short essays, on the art
of every day living in the light of eternal life, were published by

dailies. The short sentences were also published with the Sermons
under the head of "Sentence Sermons." The courtesy of The Chicago
Daily Tribune in permitting the publication of these "sermons," with
such changes as have seemed best, is gratefully acknowledged.
