Marshaling of the Nations.

By ALONZO T. JONES.
This pamphlet briefly outlines the course of Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, and Greece; treats of the division of the Roman Empire into the ten kingdoms, and from these the gradual development of the great powers of to-day, and accounts for their strategical position on the map of the world, and their role in the Eastern question, and the dismemberment of Turkey, and notices the rise of the United States as a prophetical nation. The part that each government is to act in the last great conflict is tersely considered, and the whole is calculated to give a general idea of the part each nation is to act in fulfilling prophecy.

“The Marvel of Nations.”

ALTHOUGH this excellent book has been published in the English language for a number of years, and is accomplishing a wonderful work, it has never been printed in any of the foreign tongues until the present time. It is now in type in the Danish, Swedish, and German languages, and the printing and binding are being hurried as fast as possible.
The time appointed for its completion in all three languages is May 1, 1902. It will be issued simultaneously in the three languages. Agents are assured the books will be ready for delivery May 1st.
This book tends to revive the old-time energy in the canvassing work. It contains the message for this time, as is evident from its power to stimulate believers, and to attract the attention of the public. It has accomplished good wherever it has been placed in the English language, and there is no question but it will be the means of bringing the message to thousands of our foreign neighbors.

Object of this Book

While the book contains many interesting and profitable facts for the people of this country, facts that easily attract and hold their attention, the special object of the book is to call the attention of the public to the future of this nation, and to the second coming of Christ. It should be placed in the homes of all the German, Danish, and Swedish people in this country in the immediate future. All our foreign members should push the circulation of this book during the coming season. It is an easy book to sell, and our lay members can readily learn to sell it.

Prospectus

The prospectus is a full English book in the best binding, with sample pages in all the foreign languages bound in. This arrangement is convenient in exhibiting the book in any one, or all, of the languages, as circumstances may require. With the combined prospectus, the canvasser may solicit orders for the book in all the languages. The price of the prospectus is 60 cts., postpaid.

Prices

The prices in the foreign languages are the same as the English prices,—$1.25 for the plain edges, and $1.50 for the gilt edges.

A Chart of the Week.

A splendid display in chart form showing the unchanged order of the days, and the position of the Sabbath, as proved by the combined testimony of 159 ancient and modern languages.
This chart is substantially mounted on rollers, and is printed on paper, on cloth, and in the original languages. It is eighteen inches wide and seven feet long. It is an excellent argument to have in presenting the Sabbath. The regular original price of the chart is $1.00, but for a short time we will send it, postpaid, for 45 cents.

Miraculous Powers.

The Scripture Testimony on the Perpetuity of Spiritual Gifts.

The belief that Spiritual Gifts still exist in the church is here supported by means of historical evidence and a compilation of testimony from the writings of eminent fathers and the greatest religious writers of every period of the Christian dispensation.

The Master’s Greatest Monosyllables.

In commendation of the new book by Pearce, entitled “The Master’s Greatest Monosyllables,” Elder W. E. Frederick says, “The writer, in a concise way, has developed truths that are especially applicable to us at this time.”
Those who fail to read this book will miss a great blessing. If the chapter headings were read and heeded by each one of the workers, the gospel would soon be carried to all the world, and our blessed Lord would come. May the Lord wake up his people that they may become efficient workers.
