MAN, THE MASTERPIECE.

“MAN, THE MASTERPIECE, or Plain Truths Plainly Told about Boyhood, Youth, and Manhood,” is a volume that should be read by every youth and man.
We quote from those who occupy positions that especially qualify them to judge of the value of a book of this kind. Dr. C. F. Wilbur, Superintendent of the Institute for the Feeble Minded, Kalamazoo, Mich., says: “‘Man, the Masterpiece,’ is a very valuable addition to a kind of literature that is much needed for the proper education of young men and women. Too little attention is paid by parents to placing in the way of children as they are growing up to manhood and womanhood, many facts and truths which have a serious influence in their proper development, and too little effort is given to their being made acquainted with right living and the ways and means of avoiding the dangerous habits of youth. Dr. Kellogg has spent his life in a constant effort to cultivate the true principles of correct living, and I sincerely recommend this latest work as a most excellent book for the perusal of young people especially, who desire to live right and do right.”
Prof. J. Estabrook, A. M., D. D., Late President of the Michigan State Normal School, says: “Pardon my long delay to acknowledge the receipt of your book, ‘Man, the Masterpiece.’ Since the close of the term I have had leisure for a careful examination. I regard it as one of the most valuable and most-needed books that has come to my notice. You have treated the most delicate subjects in the most clear and delicate manner. The book ought to be in every house, and read and carefully studied by every parent and teacher. You strike at the very root of the greatest social and moral evils of the age. Multitudes will rise up and call you blessed for the light you have thrown upon subjects of which the masses know but very little. I hope you will be abundantly rewarded for your earnest, faithful, and most valuable work.”
The book contains 600 octavo pages, with 30 full-page colored plates, and a dissected plate of the human body, showing the position of each important organ of the body, and its relation to all other organs.
Bound in five substantial bindings. Prices range from $3.00 to $5.50, postpaid.
