A VALUABLE HELP.

Some of the Berean readers are saying that they have read “Thoughts on Daniel” so much in years past, and are so familiar with it, that the studies are not so interesting as they wish they were. Well, dear ones, enlarge the scope of your reading in the field of the lessons. The “Great Empires of Prophecy” treats of the book of Daniel in a way that exactly meets the needs of all such as are here referred to. If all those who are so familiar with “Thoughts on Daniel” that they find the lessons not sufficiently interesting will study the Berean lessons in connection with “Great Empires of Prophecy,” they will find all the lack fully supplied. In proof, read the following experience of one circle:—
“The experience we have had in our home in studying the Berean lessons has led me to think that many others may be battling with the same difficulties. While the text-book has furnished valuable assistance in understanding the prophecies, we have felt the serious need of becoming familiar with the history of the empires in a connected and tangible form. But this we found difficult to do, as those works that are condensed are not complete enough to give the points we especially desire; and to delve into those volumes of Gibbon, Rollin, etc., that would give us what we are after, requires more time than we (mothers at least) can find to give to it, especially as there are constantly so many good things that we must read and study in order to ‘redeem the time.’ And so we felt that our most earnest efforts were far from satisfactory, until our attention was called to the book entitled, ‘The Great Empires of Prophecy,’ by A. T. Jones; and in this we have found just the help we need. The contents of this book have been carefully gleaned from the cream of historical works; and they are so compiled as not only to give invaluable information, but also to be intensely interesting and even fascinating. I truly believe it is the book for all who wish to get the most possible out of these studies.
