Our Publishing Work

By Editor

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

See last paragraph on this page for instructions where to order.

IT is expected to have the new edition of “Christ in Song” completed in a short time. The demand for this book has been very good during the past season.

DO you remember what was said about our Waterman fountain pens in the issue of July 12? The new improvements on these pens render them practical in every respect. The price of the standard pen having all the improvements is only $2.75.

AS early as August 7, our Baltimore agent, who is a little girl fourteen years of age, had ordered 1,000 copies of the August number of Life and Health. She sold over 2,000 copies of the July number. Other girls and boys could do as well if they would try.

TO the question, “What is the most available means for the ordinary man or woman to do service for God and humanity?” we have just received the following answer: “The circulation of the printed pages bearing the message for this time. The world is in darkness, and the greatest present need is spiritual food. Our books and papers contain this food in clear, connected form. All who consecrate themselves to God for service will find the circulation of message-filled literature the most available means for acceptable service for God and humanity.”

WHAT about the value of “His Glorious Appearing”? Listen to what is said about it by a man seventy-two years of age, who had just read it for the first time: “Yesterday a friend lent me a copy of ‘His Glorious Appearing;’ I have read it, and was never more interested. I am seventy-two years of age, and my judgment is that if ‘His Glorious Appearing’ could be placed in the hands of every sane man and woman of the Christian faith the world over, true Christianity would be universal, and I desire to be an instrument in helping to that end. Enclosed please find twenty-five cents, for which send me a copy of the book.”

DO not delay longer if you do not have a full set of the “Testimonies for the Church.” The more these Testimonies are studied, the better prepared will be the individual to meet perplexing issues that are sure to come to every one connected with the work of the message. The full set comprises eight volumes. Volumes I–VI, bound in cloth, $1 each. Volumes VII and VIII, bound in cloth, 75 cents each. The full set, therefore, in uniform cloth binding, costs only $7.50, post-paid. The full set, Volumes I to IV bound in leather, and Volumes V to VIII bound in flexible leather, can be had for $11.50. These bindings make a very durable combination. They will be found very serviceable for a set of books used as often as the Testimonies should be.

A GOOD thing for a boy to carry is a vest-pocket size Webster’s Dictionary. This little work is, in itself, a library of information that every boy ought to have. Price, cloth, 25 cents; leather, 50 cents; Morocco, 60 cents.

THE new edition of “Early Writings” contains the first published Testimonies of Mrs. E. G. White. The book is reprinted from new plates, uniform in size with “Testimonies for the Church.” Bound in plain cloth, 75 cents. Flexible leather, $1.25.

JUDGING from the way orders are coming in, the Canadian people appreciate Liberty No. 2. The Alberta Tract Society has just sent us an order for 700 copies, 500 of which were for one person. This number of Liberty is good for all countries, but it is especially adapted to the present needs of the United States. The magazine is only 25 cents a year. When 25 or more copies of any one number are ordered at one time, the price is only 2½ cents a copy, or $2.50 a hundred.

THE children in our Sabbath-schools should have the benefits of “Bible Object Lessons and Songs for Little Ones.” This work was prepared especially for the use of kindergarten teachers. It is composed of fifty-two lessons, one for each Sabbath in the year, with suggestions accompanying each lesson; thirty-nine songs and hymns written especially for the lessons; thirty-six full-page pictures, six-by-eight half-tones, and colored plates; fifty-two pen drawings, showing how to use the illustrative material; 160 pages, filled with very practical information to all kindergarten and primary teachers. Bound in durable board, 7½ by 10 inches, $1.50; cloth, the same size, $2.

DO not forget that the Review and Herald Publishing Assn., of Washington, D. C., has secured a line of Bibles printed in the old country, that will come up to the standard with any other Bibles published. They contain all the latest up-to-date features in Bible manufacture, and have the famous large “quart-in-a-pint” type, plain Arabic figures—the kind that the old people like—for chapter headings. They are furnished with or without concordance and thumb index. Supplied to agents at good discount. The general demand is for large type in a small Bible. This line is the nearest approach to such a book that we know of. Write for descriptive circular for these Bibles. Any one who sells five Bibles, can get one of the best bindings free.

Orders for any publication mentioned on this page may be sent to any conference tract society or to Review and Herald Publishing Association, Takoma Park Station, Washington, D. C., or Battle Creek, Mich.

Also Pacific Press Publishing Company, Mountain View, Cal.; Portland, Ore.; Kansas City, Mo.; Southern Publishing Association, Nashville, Tenn., and Fort Worth, Tex.
