*The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.* Psalm 68:11.

“Bible Object Lessons and Songs for Little Ones” is an excellent kindergarten book, containing 52 lessons with suggestions for teaching them, 39 songs and hymns, written especially for the lessons, 36 full-page half-tones and colored plates, and 52 pen drawings, showing the use of the illustrative material. The whole book contains 160 pages, profusely illustrated, and bound in four styles, ranging in prices from $1.50 to $3.75.

“My Garden Neighbors” was written especially for our young people as a substitute for the harmful fiction and vicious literature that is being prepared for the young. It is full of beautiful illustrations and true stories. Every parent and friend of the youth who is interested in keeping them away from fiction and harmful stories, will be interested in seeing that this book is placed in the hands of all our young people. Besides presenting something that will fill profitably the time, its stories of birds and other of nature’s creatures, give an outlook on nature that will enlarge into a world of pleasure and profit. It is impossible in this limited space to make mention of all you will find in this book. It is for sale by the Review and Herald, but you may order it through your tract society. 256 pages. Price, $1.

“The New Testament Primer” is a new book for children, composed of simple Bible and nature topics with clean stories. It sparkles with bright two-color illustrations. It is one of the most attractive children’s books ever published. It is arranged in four graded departments, beginning with a Scripture alphabet. The first letter of each Scripture text is printed in two colors, and decorated with vines that grow in Palestine. The second department is entirely devoted to trees, flowers, animals, birds, and insects, with a slate exercise in writing, drawing, and stick-laying. The third and fourth departments contain simple, yet thrilling stories of Christ and some of the leading disciples. The entire book is admirably adapted to direct in the teaching of children. It is clean, cultured, and convincing. Beautifully bound in board and cloth covers, 25 and 50 cents.

“Home and Health” is our new health book, especially designed for home reference, treating of the many details pertaining to the home and the care of the body. Its general scope embraces “The Home”—how to make it; “General Housekeeping”—all of its details; “The Diet”—what it should be; “The Care of the Body”—revealing the simple things one must do to keep the body healthy; “The Care and Training of Children”—sound common sense for all parents; “The Home Treatment of Disease”—a valuable instructor, doctor, and nurse. This book will prove to be an all-round, valuable counselor in every feature of home and health. It contains 592 pages, and is illustrated with over 250 original drawings made especially for the book. We want 500 agents to present the book to the public. Write to the State tract society for particulars in connection with soliciting for “Home and Health,” rates to agents, etc.

“The Church: Its Organization, Order, and Discipline,” is a book our church-members need to study at this time. It contains the instruction given to the church through direct Testimony in a condensed, classified form, arranged especially for study and reference. Every home should have a copy, and every individual should become familiar with its teachings. It is a pamphlet of 184 pages; price, 25 cents.

“The Christian Educator Reading Series” adopted by the General Conference at its Educational Convention held in College View, Neb., in 1906, is now being printed. Nos. 1 and 2 are off the press, and Nos. 3 and 5 will soon be ready. The other numbers of the series will probably not be ready before next summer. This series of readers comes to us as the result of successful experience in teaching. An experimental edition of the books of the series was issued during the year 1904. During the two succeeding years they have been used quite largely in our schools on the Pacific Coast. In many other conferences they have also been used to some extent. Almost without exception they have been welcomed by teachers as a blessing in their schools. The price of Nos. 1 and 2 is 75 cents each, post-paid. The books may be ordered through any of the usual channels.
