Christians have a definite idea of marriage, to which it is their duty to conform, because it is revealed and so known to be true. As the family is the root of society, and marriage is the root of the family, so the root of the morals of every society is to be found in the morals of the family, and those morals grow out of the ideas entertained about marriage. The notions about marriage, which prevail in any community, have an important bearing upon the morals of the people. It may be safely said that any community which shall have really and practically adopted the Christian idea of marriage, will have made the first and greatest step toward the adoption of the body of Christian morals. In a time when divorce among professing Christians occurs at the same rate as in the secular world, this volume is a valuable study of a much-neglected subject. The author, a Protestant Episcopal minister from Maryland, outlines what the Bible teaches on the nature and purpose of marriage, its indissolubleness, the choice of a partner, the authority of the husband and the subordination of the wife, etc.

The ethical principles and practices outlined by the author of this volume constitute indispensable advice for Christian boys who desire to become godly men for the glory of God. Chapter titles include "Piety as the Spring of Action and Regulator of the Soul," "Treatment of Brothers and Sisters and Others in the Family," "Behavior at Table," "Choice of Society and Formation of Friendships," "Government of the Tongue," etc. This book should be in every home, and in the library of every young man.
