“MY GARDEN NEIGHBORS” was written especially for our young people as a substitute for the harmful fiction and vicious literature that is being prepared for the young. It is full of beautiful illustrations and true stories. Every parent and friend of the youth, who is interested in keeping them away from fiction and harmful stories, will be interested in seeing that this book is placed in the hands of all our young people. Besides presenting something that will fill profitably the time, its stories of birds and other of nature’s creatures, give an outlook on nature that will enlarge into a world of pleasure and profit. It is impossible in this limited space to make mention of all you will find in this book. It is for sale by the Review and Herald, but you may order it through your tract society. 256 pages. Price, $1.

“THE NEW TESTAMENT PRIMER” is a new book for children, composed of simplified nature and Bible topics, and sparkling with bright, two-colored illustrations — one of the most attractive children’s books ever published. Arranged in four graded departments, beginning with a Scripture alphabet, the first letter of the Scripture text being printed in two colors, and decorated with vines that grow in Palestine. The second department is a nature display of trees, flowers, animals, birds, and insects, with a slate exercise in writing, drawing, and stick laying. The third and fourth departments contain simple stories of Christ and some of the leading disciples. The entire book is admirably adapted to attract and to teach children — clean, cultured, and convincing. Beautifully bound in board and cloth covers, 25 and 50 cents.

The new Year-Book for 1907 will be ready to mail in a short time. It contains many improvements over previous editions, and will serve as an excellent reference to denominational affairs. All the usual matter heretofore comprising our Year-Books is arranged in a more convenient form, and the new statistical records of our institutions are greatly enlarged and appropriately grouped with the other matter. It will also contain the fundamental principles of Seventh-day Adventism which were printed in the 1905 Year-Book. This feature will be of great service in missionary work, for there is a constant demand for a statement of the belief of our people which can not be supplied in any other publication. The rapid growth of the denomination as revealed in the 1907 Year-Book, placed by the side of the fundamental principles, will render this edition of the Year-Book very desirable for placing in the possession of interested persons. It will be very convincing, and will doubtless help them to gain a comprehensive view of the great work being done. Not only every worker, but every family, should have a copy for reference and study, and thousands of copies should be used in missionary work. It can be ordered of any State tract society or of any publishing house.

Our new commandment chart just printed by the Review and Herald Publishing Association is 36 inches wide and 51 inches long. The type is large enough to be easily read in the largest hall or tent. It has the words, “The Law of God,” printed in large type at the top. It is in all particulars a decided improvement over the old chart, yet the price remains the same,—$1, post-paid.

BELL’S “Guide to Correct Language” has been revised and reduced in price. It is one of the best works on the proper use of the English language ever printed. The author was an acknowledged authority on all matters pertaining to the English language. His book, “Guide to Correct Language,” maintains his reputation. An educator says of the work: “It certainly is a work of merit, one to which many of our workers and other people should have access. I believe our speakers and writers should seek a higher standard in language, and the ‘Guide’ would certainly prove helpful to them.” Bound in durable cloth, 50 cents.

“THE GREAT SECOND ADVENT MOVEMENT” is a work written by Elder J. N. Loughborough. It accurately describes the progress of the denomination from its beginning to the present time. The author has been intimately connected with the progress of the denomination from its beginning, and is prepared to speak with authority. There is no other work circulated at the present time of such thrilling interest to our readers, as “The Great Second Advent Movement.” The faith and confidence of every individual who reads this book will be strengthened. He will have more perfect knowledge of the dealings of God with this special people, and will be better prepared to unite his efforts in advancing the third angel’s message. Let all not only read it, but study it. Price, $1.50.

“HERALDS OF THE MORNING” reveals the dawn of a desirable era to be ushered in by the coming of the Lord. The prophecies being fulfilled in the world to-day, and attracting the attention of the public, are interestingly considered in this work. The wonderful increase of knowledge and the marvelous development of the last century, the rising tide of crime and evil, the conflict between capital and labor, the increasing anger of the nations, the prevalence of the war spirit, the awful struggle to excel in the invention and manufacture of the most destructive weapons, the increase of storms and disasters of all kinds, are treated in connection with the prophecies which foretell the coming of these events. It is a work especially adapted to the needs of the people at this present time. Price, $1.75.
