Our Publishing Work

By Editor

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

Any publication mentioned on this page may be ordered through your conference tract society or from any of our publishing houses or their branch offices. See last paragraph on this page for addresses of our publishing houses.

DID you notice from the statistics given in one of the readings for the week of prayer what simple and apparently useless efforts were blessed of the Lord in bringing the truth to individuals? Did not the instances recorded in that reading make you resolve to be more faithful in sowing the seed “beside all waters”?

A COPY of “Steps to Christ” (cloth, plain, 50 cents; cloth, gilt edges, 85 cents), “Mount of Blessing” (cloth, 60 cents), “Master’s Monosyllables” (50 cents), or “Lover’s Love” (75 cents), sent to a friend not in the truth may interest him in religious matters, and open the way for the reading of more strictly doctrinal publications. Try it.

AT a recent meeting of the National Reform Association, held in Pittsburg, Pa., they reported a circulation of a million or more copies of one leaflet during the last year, and comment was made to the effect that Seventh-day Adventists were doing practically nothing with their religious liberty literature. Now is a time when the enemies of religious liberty are active. Is their imputation true concerning our efforts?

DURING this winter thousands of copies of religious liberty leaflets ought to be placed in the hands of legislators, attorneys, politicians, and public men. We owe it to these people to bring to their attention these small but important publications. The prices are as follows: (No. 1) “Principles Too Little Understood,” 8 pages, each ½ cent, one hundred, 38 cents; (No. 2) “Sunday Laws; Their Origin, Nature, and Object,” 8 pages, each ½ cent, one hundred, 38 cents; (No. 3) “The Logic of Sabbath Legislation,” 8 pages, each ½ cent, one hundred, 38 cents; (No. 4) “The Civil Sabbath,” 12 pages, each ¾ cent, one hundred, 55 cents.

HOLY men of old spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost, and we read their writings, and through them know to a certainty what the future will disclose. “Patriarchs and Prophets” is a book of 762 pages which treats on a most important portion of the Bible, and gives us new and wonderful views of this inspired history. Beginning with the rebellion in heaven, it shows why sin was permitted, why man was tested, why Satan was not destroyed, rehearses the plan of salvation, and traces Israel’s history down to the close of David’s reign. There is no better book to overthrow the theories of evolution, and to establish the Bible record of creation. It is a book to read and reread, to loan and keep loaning. It will carry light and blessing wherever it goes. Get out your copy and pass it on to some one else. Price in full cloth, gilt edges, $2.75.

THE regular edition of “Hymns and Tunes” can still be supplied in all the regular styles of binding. Prices from $1.50 to $3.25.

IF your subscription for the REVIEW, Life and Health, Youth’s Instructor, or Sabbath School Worker expires at this time of the year, please send in your renewal early, as this is a very busy time on our lists.

“MINISTRY OF HEALING” will carry light and blessing to the sick-room, or to the invalid. Start your copy on its mission of helpfulness. The price is $1.65, post-paid, and if you have not already ordered a copy, do it now.

ONE college president has said that the cat story in the book, “My Garden Neighbors,” is well worth the price of the book. If you like stories of any kind, you will be pleased with this book, and, best of all, its stories are all true.

HAVE you a supply of those Signs Leaflets on hand ready for use whenever opportunity offers? The fifty-cent assortment contains about 18 each of the 16 various kinds of leaflets, or 576 pages of reading-matter treating on various phases of truth.

DURING the winter is the very best time to begin the study of the birds, as their numbers are fewer, and you are not nearly so apt to become confused in seeking to know their names. In the book “My Garden Neighbors” you will find out how to get acquainted with your feathered winter visitants. On page 218 you are told how to get the winter birds to visit your home; and on pages 243-254 you are told how to learn their names and study their habits and characters. All our young people, all our teachers, will be glad to get the knowledge contained in this book.

WE want all our canvassers for “Desire of Ages,” and all others who will help to introduce the book to Sunday-school officers and teachers, to have a copy of our little booklet “An Important Sunday-school Lesson Help.” This little “Help” gives references from the lessons to the passages in “Desire of Ages” which treat the same topic. This booklet is free to interested persons who will make use of it. We have also prepared a limited edition de luxe of this “Sunday-school Lesson Help,” printed on deckle edge paper with liberal margins, and tied with silk cord, which is especially good for use with prominent pastors or superintendents. For this de luxe edition we make a charge of 5 cents a copy.

C., and Battle Creek, Mich.; Pacific Press Publishing Company, Mountain View, Cal.; also Portland, Ore., and Kansas City, Mo.; Southern Publishing Association, Nashville, Tenn., and Fort Worth, Tex.
