Every Sabbath-school Teacher and Student Should Have This Book
By Editor
The Sabbath-school lessons for the remainder of 1910 will continue to be upon the life of Christ. No one lesson help is so complete and comprehensive as this great work, “The Desire of Ages.” Every teacher and student should have a copy of this book at hand when studying the Sabbath-school lesson. It will throw greater light upon the texts, the places, the people, the conditions, and give a truer insight into the active, living features of the lessons than almost any other work that can be consulted. “The Desire of Ages” is considered by many the most striking example of the eloquence and instructiveness to be found in the works of Mrs. E. G. White.
No Seventh-day Adventist library is complete without it. The price in cloth, marbled edges, as illustrated, is $3; half morocco, $4.50; full morocco, $6. Orders may be sent either through your tract society or direct to the publishing house.
Book News
We have just received from the publishing house a supply of copies of “Boy Wanted,” by Nixon Waterman. This book is wholly inspirational, and is written for the purpose of training boys into men of the caliber that “do things.” Every parent who has a real, live, human boy should have a copy, and should see that that boy has a chance to read it. $1.25 each, post-paid.

Another book which we have just stocked is “Happy School Days,” by Margaret E. Sangster; and as the book previously mentioned is intended to make boys of the right stamp, so is this book prepared for the purpose of developing the right kind of girls.
Any girl will be proud to own a copy of this book, and the ownership will be an incentive to read it and profit from its valuable advice. It will help mothers, too, to get in closer touch with their daughters, and to sympathize with their school-day experiences. $1.25 each, post-paid.
Sabbath-school Problems Solved
The problem of paying for Sabbath-school supplies, and of buying new equipment without robbing the foreign mission donations, can be readily met by every Sabbath-school in the country, if the opportunity now presented is seized.
Superintendents and teachers should lay plans immediately for an active, energetic campaign with the Temperance number of the YOUTH’S INSTRUCTOR. This is an unusually good number, and the people everywhere will buy it readily.
No school in the country ought to have any difficulty in disposing of at least one thousand copies. One thousand copies at an average profit of six cents each means $60 to be devoted to the purchase of supplies or new equipment. In a Sabbath-school of fifty members this means that only twenty copies need be sold by each member, or an average of one a day for less than a month.
What easier way could be devised for meeting Sabbath-school expenses?
Incidentally, a campaign of this kind will do a world of good in arousing and stimulating interest on the part of the students. Nothing so tends to success in Sabbath-school work as actual working experience.
Superintendents and workers interested in this plan would do well to correspond with the Circulation Department of the Review and Herald Pub. Assn. We want active workers everywhere with the Temperance INSTRUCTOR.

¶ The May, June, July, and August numbers of LIFE AND HEALTH will be the best ever placed in the hands of the periodical workers. We are receiving many good words regarding the April issue and its excellent appearance. The May
LIFE & HEALTH
THE NATIONAL HEALTH MAGAZINE
will be even better, and the June, July, and August numbers are now being planned with the idea of making them worthy of a tremendous circulation. We hope to make them the most attractive publications ever issued from the Review and Herald presses. Agents should get ready now for a big summer business.
“Thoughts From the Mount of Blessing”
is a book calculated to do a world of good wherever it is known. In the old edition this was one of the most attractive books we had; but now that it has been reset, re-illustrated, and brought out in much more attractive fashion in every way, it is certainly a gem, and will form a most desirable addition to any library. Nothing more appropriate for a gift book. In cloth, 75 cents; paper binding, 25 cents.
