During Vacation

The Home and Church-School Manual

is especially valuable. The author's intention was that this book should be a guide to the parent in instructing the children at home, so that, when entering the church-school, they will have had the proper home training, and can continue in the church-school without interruption. This book is invaluable to any one interested in the teaching of children, as the following condensed description of its six departments will show:—

Part I sets forth the general principles of Christian education, and states the object of the church-schools.

Part II applies these principles to the home training, and shows parents how to educate their children in the home until they are old enough to enter the church-school.

Part III provides a course of study for church-schools, recommends text-books, and tells how to teach each subject in every grade.

Part IV presents a course of study for intermediate schools, and outlines the principles upon which they should be conducted.

Part V contains hints and helps for teachers, based upon questions which they are asked, and drawn from the long experience of the author.

Part VI solves many of the practical problems in the church-school work with which the people are everywhere dealing.

Thoughts on Revelation

Lesson Helps for the Third Quarter of 1904

No book can be found more helpful on the study of the lessons for the coming quarter than the book “Thoughts on Revelation.” It is a verse-by-verse study of the entire book, making it especially desirable for reference and study.

You will always have more or less occasion to seek knowledge on the book of Revelation, as well as on the book of Daniel. “Thoughts on Revelation” is bound with “Thoughts on Daniel” in permanent form in one volume, as follows:—

The Message Simply Told

In another column will be found a report from Brother R. L. Routt, regarding the sale of the special Watchman in Texas. It will be noticed that his wife and sister visited New Orleans, and sold a few hundred in that city. The following letter from Mr. — is doubtless the result of his buying a copy from one of these sisters. This gentleman states that “it is the best and most instructive weekly” that he ever read, which goes to show how it is being received by those not of our faith. The text of his letter is given in full, as follows:—

“Enclosed please find express money-order for fifty cents, for which please mail to —, New Orleans, La., for six months, your weekly Southern Watchman. It is the best and most instructive weekly that I have ever read. Your recent issue on the second coming of Christ should win for you a great number of subscribers. I never heard of your paper until two weeks ago. You should get it in circulation down here. New Orleans people need it.”

Do you not think that there are other cities in which the Watchman is needed also? Will you not give the people in your vicinity an opportunity to secure a copy of this special number, and also to become regular subscribers, that they may continue studying the message? There are many, both young and old, who could take a club, work up a few regular customers and deliver a copy to them each week for five cents. In clubs of five or more to one address, the regular issues are furnished at 1½ cents each (75 cents a year), which gives a profit of 3½ cents each to the person selling it. Being both a missionary and a church paper, it seems to meet the minds of all better than a straight missionary paper or a church publication only; for it is observed that the people like to know something of what is being done by this denomination. Many will read it for this purpose who otherwise would lay it aside. The Watchman has on its editorial staff some of the old pioneers in this message, whose long experience enables them to proclaim the stirring truths for this time in no uncertain tones. The language of the paper is plain and simple, and furnishes each week most excellent reading for the entire family. Will you not help extend its usefulness by subscribing yourself if you are not already receiving it, and by getting others to do so, either by the year or by the week?
