For Old and Young

“Gospel Order,” a Brief Outline of the Bible Principles of Organization, by W. A. Spicer. This pamphlet, just from the press, which can be purchased for —

ONLY TEN CENTS

is a concise, clean-cut presentation of God’s plan of church organization, as developed in “the church in the wilderness,” in New Testament times, and in the third angel’s message.

Boys and girls from the ages of eight or ten upward will greatly enjoy “THE HOUSE WE LIVE IN,” by Vesta J. Farnsworth. “The house we live in,”—the human body,—is pictured and described in this volume in a way which will carry the reader through its 218 pages in intense and sustained interest. Children as young as six or seven can understand the chapters, when read to them by an older person, and the book will be of interest to both old and young. It is in the form of a conversation carried on by a mother with her children, and the parts of the body are compared to the walls of the rooms and the general conveniences of the home. The book serves to emphasize the wisdom of God in creating and keeping in order the wonderful mechanism of the body, and gives the reader the valuable essentials of physiology and hygiene in a very entertaining manner. The book has been chosen by teachers as a valuable help in school work. Price, in cloth, profusely illustrated, $1.

“MY GARDEN NEIGHBORS,” by Dr. L. A. Reed. This book of 256 pages contains fifteen chapters, divided into what the author terms true stories of nature’s children,—descriptions of lives and habits of the birds and other creatures who visited the author’s garden. The book is supplemented with a chapter entitled “Introduction to Birds,” showing how to make a careful study of birds. Abundantly illustrated in cloth, $1.

“STEPS TO CHRIST,” by Mrs. E. G. White. The new illustrated edition forms one of the best gift-books in our entire list. While scarcely a book for the children, it is a suitable gift-book for either old or young. It is translated into fourteen languages, which indicates the esteem in which it is held. It will be found a valuable companion for the young disciple, and an effective aid to the Christian worker. Cloth, 60 cents; gilt, $1; Russia, red leather, $1; morocco, de luxe, printed on extra quality paper, especially suitable for gift purposes, $1.50.

“UNCLE BEN’S COBBLESTONES.” Familiar talks with boys and girls about the common articles of every-day use, such as air, water, sunshine, fire, smoke, glass, coal, salt, paper, matches. Through these common articles the author directs the youthful minds to many practical lessons. Uncle Ben tells about more than one hundred different things in all. Beautifully illustrated; 221 pages; board, $1.
