Our Publishing Work

By Editor

The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it. Psalm 68:11.

THE Review and Herald Publishing Association has manufactured a supply of Vest Pocket Memorandum Books, which have been named “Memory Annex.” These are so constructed that when the blank paper is all used, a new supply can be added in the form of a paper-bound tablet of 75 pages of good stock, 2½ by 5½ inches. The permanent cover of the Annex is made of durable, flexible, red leather, which will last for years. The cover and one filler sells for 25 cents, post-paid. The fillers can be supplied, post-paid, for five cents each. The Memory Annexes and the fillers can be ordered through the regular channels.

IT will soon be the time of the year when increased efforts will be made in the organizing of Sabbath-school kindergarten classes. We wish to call the attention of our readers to “Bible Object Lessons and Songs for Little Ones.” This excellent kindergarten book contains 52 lessons, one for each Sabbath in the year, with suggestions accompanying each lesson; 39 songs and hymns written for the lessons; 36 full-page pictures, 6 × 8 half-tones, and colored plates; 52 pen drawings, showing the use of the illustrative material. The whole book contains 160 pages, beautifully printed and profusely illustrated. The book is bound in four styles,—board cover, 7½ by 10 inches in size, $1.50; blue cloth, $2; lemon edge, royal edition, $2.75; gilt edges, panel size, $3.75.

WE call the special attention of the REVIEW readers to the February number of Life and Health, which offers some suggestions on, How to Overcome Constipation; How to Remedy an Unhappy Life; it stimulates faith in Christ’s power to heal; cites some of the evils that come to our children through improper reading and objectionable companions; sounds a note of warning against the tendencies unfavorable to the home and the family; gives a judge’s reasons for the downfall of boys and girls. It contains Questions and Answers on, Alcohol in Candy; Removal of Tonsils; Cough Medicine for Children; Poor Circulation; The Age of Healthful Bread; Jaundice; Ulcer of the Stomach; Shortness of Breath; Diseased Tonsils; Nasal Catarrh; Effect of Cooking Food, etc.; Editorials on, False Claims Made Through Newspapers; Advertisements for the Cure of Special Diseases; Some Enemies of Reform; Two Reasons for the Use of Alcohol Examined; Sleep for the Children; Changes in Methods of Treatment; What Rheumatic People Should Eat: Current Comment on, The Anti-Alcohol Movement Among Students and Practitioners; Paralyzing the Leucocytes; A Deadly Fallacy; The Venereal Peril; Unclean Newspapers; Smallpox and Vaccination; A Time for Study and a Time for Sleep; The New Dietary; Reading in Bed; The Earthquake Cure; Some Uses of Cottonseed Oil, etc.; Household Suggestions on Unfermented Bread; reports of the advancement of healthful living in foreign countries, and a large collection of instructive News Notes. This number of Life and Health costs only 5 cents, but its value can not be estimated in dollars and cents. Sample copies free.

ALL the readers of the REVIEW are familiar with “Christ in Song,” by F. E. Belden, which contains 414 pages with over 700 hymns set to music, embracing nearly all the old favorite songs with many new ones. It contains twice as many hymns and songs as are found in the average Sabbath-school song-book. It is bound more securely, and is furnished at the following prices: One or more copies, post-paid, in heavy flexible cloth, 35 cents; in paper-covered boards, with attractive ink design, red edges, heavy canvas back, 40 cents; in canvas-covered boards, aluminum title, red edges, 50 cents; in half morocco, gold title, $1.

WE again call attention to “Bible Hero Classics,” a series of twelve covered pamphlets containing ethical Biblical stories of Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Joshua, Samuel, Solomon, Elijah-Elisha, Daniel, Ruth-Esther, Samson-Gideon, Moses, and David. In bringing out this series of stories it is the author’s purpose to make this generation as well acquainted with these principal Bible characters as with Alexander, Caesar, King Arthur, etc. It is hoped that thousands of parents and teachers will take advantage of the “Classics,” in order to introduce the inimitable stories of the Bible to the young people. It is believed these thrilling stories will be read by the youth, instead of the many harmful stories, if they can only be placed in their possession. The books have been critically examined by competent persons, and are pronounced clean and good. The Review and Herald will sell them in full sets, post-paid, for 80 cents.

WE can thoroughly equip kindergarten class rooms with furniture, and material with which to illustrate the lessons given in “Bible Object Lessons and Songs for Little Ones.” We can furnish substantial hard top tables with folding legs and inside cabinet for material, sufficiently large to seat eight children and the teacher, at $3.75, freight or express extra. We can furnish little chairs for the children for 60 cents for the 14-inch, and 50 cents for the 12-inch, with freight or express extra. We can also furnish three boxes of kindergarten material, which make teaching comparatively easy. Boxes 1 and 2 contain hard maple blocks cut into cubes, halves, quarters, squares, and oblongs. Box 3 contains 10 miniature sheep, 30 mounted sticks to represent men (10 of them children), green French tissue-paper for representing water, cones, domes, and green splints for river outlines and tree-building. Where the three boxes are ordered with one book, the purchaser receives free a portfolio of blackboard sketches on the life of Christ, which will materially aid in drawing. The three boxes of material, express paid, $1.75.

Orders for any publication mentioned on this page may be sent to any conference tract society, or to Review and Herald Publishing Association; Takoma Park Station, Washington, D. C., or Battle Creek, Mich.
