Our Publishing Work

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.
PARENTS, what papers are your children reading? They ought to have the Youth’s Instructor. It is filled with interesting and profitable reading. It costs only 75 cents a year—only one and one-half cents a week.
A TRACT was recently issued in the Bible Student’s Library Series, bearing the title of “Signs of the End.” It contains sixteen pages, and is sold at one cent a copy, or eighty cents a hundred. This is an excellent tract for general distribution.
An exhaustive study of the Scriptures on the sanctuary question is to be found in “Looking Unto Jesus.” In these days, when the faith of some is being overthrown, it will do all good to review these subjects which constitute the pillars of our faith. Price in plain cloth, 75 cents.
Do not neglect to keep a supply of Signs, Religious Liberty, and Words of Truth leaflets on hand to pass out to neighbors and friends. Full lists of the various leaflets in each of these series, together with prices, will be found in our catalogue. Send for a copy if you do not have one.
THE three boxes of kindergarten material used in connection with teaching the lessons in “Bible Object Lessons and Songs for Little Ones” may be secured from any of the publishing houses or tract societies. The price of the three boxes is $1.75, post-paid.
THE second number of Liberty will help the public to recognize the fallacy of the claim that Sunday laws are essential to good government. It sets forth the evils of all religious legislation, and emphasizes the true principles of religious liberty, upon which the government of the United States was founded. It ought to be in every American home. Who will help the publishers put it there?
THERE is still opportunity to interest Sunday-school workers in that wonderful book “The Desire of Ages” while the International Sunday-school Lessons are continued upon the life of Christ. A little booklet has been prepared which gives references from each lesson to the pages in “The Desire of Ages” which treat the same subject. The booklet is furnished free to those who will use it in this way.
WHY not give our children a better acquaintance with our bird neighbors? The customs of birds and the habits of various animals are not only interesting, but very profitable to our young people. They will receive profit and pleasure in reading “Garden Neighbors,” a book of 256 pages, by Dr. L. A. Reed. This work gives some very interesting true stories of some familiar birds and animals. Price, $1.
READ the August number of Life and Health. It will be an excellent hot weather guide. Price, 5 cents a copy.
ORDERS are coming in for “Lessons for Children’s Meetings,” No. 4, which is an illustrated pamphlet of sixty-two pages, containing outline lessons, together with suggestions on blackboard drawings and word-picture studies adapted to the needs of primary workers in children’s meetings. These lessons will be of great help to mothers who desire to give their children lessons at home. Price, 10 cents.
Is disease accidental? or is it the result of causes that may be known and avoided? Life and Health is a magazine devoted to the consideration of such questions in a practical way. It reveals how sickness may be prevented or cured, and what people may do to prevent sickness in their families. Subscription price, 50 cents a year. Good commission to agents. Address Life and Health, Takoma Park Station, Washington, D. C.
A common-sense health cook-book is a constant and invaluable aid to the housewife. Such a book is Mrs. Colcord’s “Friend in the Kitchen.” This book is especially adapted to the wants of the common people. It is vegetarian throughout, and contains much matter not found in an ordinary cook-book, such as “Substitutes for Meats,” “How to Can Fruit,” “How to Make Unfermented Bread and Wine for Sacramental Purposes,” “How to Become a Vegetarian,” “How to Prepare Sabbath Dinners,” “Rules for Dyspeptics,” “The Pulse in Health,” “Weights and Measures for the Kitchen,” etc., etc. The department on “How to Can Fruit” is worth many times the price of the book, and the argument on vegetarianism in this little work is perhaps the best brief treatise on this subject in the English language. The book contains forty Scripture references, and thirty-five quotations from the writings of Mrs. White. In its “Week’s Menu” it teaches which day is the Sabbath, and in the section following, on “How to Prepare Sabbath Dinners,” it calls attention to the importance of proper Sabbath observance. In its line it is therefore a practical and thorough-going exponent of present truth. As a canvasser’s help, it has no equal, as its steady sales of from fifteen to twenty thousand copies annually attest. Besides the large amount of general matter, it contains 400 choice, thoroughly tested recipes, and sells for only 50 cents substantially bound in oilcloth, and 25 cents well bound in limp cloth.
