The Life and Epistles of St. Paul

BY CONYBEARE AND HOWSON
Bound in cloth, 12mo, $1, postpaid
Our “Sketches of the Life of Paul,” being out of print, we offer the “Life and Epistles of Saint Paul,” by Conybeare and Howson, as a substitute. This book will prove to be of great value in the study of the present Sabbath-school lessons.

Prophetic Charts

We have a series of prophetic charts, seven in number, each of which is finely lithographed on muslin. These charts are large—31 x 44 inches. And instead of crowding everything into one chart, each line of prophecy is illustrated on a separate sheet. This serves to keep the mind of the listener upon the subject under consideration. The lecturer will find the charts well adapted for large audiences. The Bible worker, also, can use them to good advantage.
Number one, of the series, shows Nebuchadnezzar’s image, standing three feet high, appropriate colors distinguishing the four nations.
Number two presents the four beasts of Daniel 7.
The ram, and the he-goat with the notable horn between his eyes, dwell together peaceably on the third chart.
The central part of the next sheet is occupied by the sanctuary, showing the position and the proportionate size of the two apartments; and the table of showbread, the golden candlestick, the altar of incense, and the ark, overshadowed by the cherubim, all stand in their respective places. Above and below the sanctuary are diagrams explaining the different sections of the twenty-three hundred days.
The space of another chart is divided between the seven-headed, ten-horned dragon of Revelation 12, and the leopard beast and the two-horned beast of Revelation 13.
Number six: The three angels of Revelation 14, flying one after the other, in the midst of heaven, shed their light over city and country, land and sea, dispelling the gross darkness which covers the earth.
A ten-commandment chart, the regular retail price of which is $1, completes the set.
Sold only in unbroken sets.
But few of our workers are familiar with the merits of these charts. We quote from a letter just received from one who has secured a set of these charts:—
“The charts received. I am very much pleased with them. I feel sure that if our laborers generally were acquainted with this series, they would prefer them to any other charts on the prophecies.”
The special price of the set, postpaid, is $2.50. The regular price is $4.

Education

BY MRS. E. G. WHITE
321 pages, beautifully bound in three-color cover design; price, $1.25.
Education in its entirety, covering all phases. Especially prepared for parents, teachers, and students. Excellent for all classes. The great principles of Christian education are clearly set forth, and invaluable counsel for the education of the youth is placed within the reach of all.
In answer to the question, “What is education?” and in defining its source, we quote a few sentences from the first chapter of the book:—
“Our ideas of education take too narrow and too low a range. There is need of a broader scope, a higher aim. True education means more than the perusal of a certain course of study. It means more than a preparation for the life that now is. It has to do with the whole being, and the whole period of existence possible to man. It is the harmonious development of the physical, the mental, and the spiritual powers. It prepares the student for the joy of service in this world, and for the higher joy of wider service in the world to come.”
“The Source of such an education is brought to view in these words of Holy Writ, pointing to the Infinite One: In him ‘are hid all the treasures of wisdom.’ ‘He hath counsel and understanding.’”

Desire of Ages

BY MRS. E. G. WHITE
This is an intensely interesting and instructive volume on the life of Christ, magnifying the truth that “God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself.”
In the hearts of all mankind, of whatever race or station in life, there are inexpressible longings for something they do not now possess. This longing is implanted in the very constitution of man, by a merciful God, that man may not be satisfied with his present conditions or attainments. It is God’s design that this longing of the human heart should lead to the One who alone is able to satisfy it. The desire is of him, that it may lead to him, the fullness and fulfillment of that desire. That fullness is found in Jesus, the Christ, the Son of the eternal God. “For it was the good pleasure of the Father that in him should all fullness dwell.” “For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.” And it is also true that “in him ye are made full” with respect to every desire divinely implanted and normally followed.
It is the purpose of this book to set forth Jesus Christ as the one in whom every longing may be satisfied; to present the love of God as revealed in his Son, the divine beauty of the life of Christ, of which all may partake, and not to satisfy the desires of the merely curious, nor the questionings of critics. Even as by the attraction of his own goodness of character Jesus drew his disciples unto himself, and by his personal presence, by his sympathetic touch and feeling in all their infirmities and needs, and by his constant association, transformed their characters from the earthly to the heavenly, from the selfish to the sacrificing, from small-hearted ignorance and prejudice to large-hearted knowledge and love for the souls of all nations and races, even so it is the purpose of this book so to present the blessed Redeemer as to help the reader to come to him face to face, heart to heart, and to find in him, even as did the disciples of old, Jesus, the Mighty One, who saves to the uttermost, and transforms to his own divine image all those who come unto God by him.
The “Desire of Ages” will interest all classes, for they were all represented in the various individuals who received help and encouragement from the great Consoler while he was here upon earth. This book should be in every home in the land. If you do not have it, secure a copy now, and after you have read it, loan it to your neighbors. A thousand canvassers should be selling it. Read what is said in the Silent Messengers department concerning the success that is attending the efforts of those who are engaged in its circulation. It contains nearly 900 pages, and is sold at the following prices:—
