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.

HAVE you sent 25 cents for a year's subscription for Liberty? Do you know this magazine can be sold readily for 5 cents a copy, and that when 25 or more copies are ordered at one time by an agent, they can be secured for 2½ cents a copy, post-paid? Also that we give agents 40 per cent discount on annual subscriptions? Send for sample copy, order blanks, and circulars.

DURING a workers' institute recently held at Fernando College, twelve young men and women in their first day's work of canvassing, took seventy-one orders for “Heralds of the Morning”—an average of six each. All agreed that this first day's experience was the best they had ever had. All heartily enjoyed their work, and received for their services ample financial remuneration.

How easy it is now, while the whole nation is shocked over the great earthquake in California, to call attention to the meaning of such occasions, as explained in some of our publications. “Heralds of the Morning” and “Coming King,” or the small and inexpensive book, “His Glorious Appearing,” are good books to set before the people truths that the recent California earthquake will emphasize and indelibly impress upon the mind. “Coming King” and “Heralds of the Morning” are only $1 and $1.50 respectively in cloth bindings, and “His Glorious Appearing,” in cloth, is only 40 cents.

THERE is a little book, entitled “Making Home Happy,” in which some very practical lessons are given. It contains a very bright, wholesome story with a moral—a great subject treated sensibly and simply, revealing how an unhappy home was made happy through loving unselfishness, which is in the story shown to be the secret of happy homes and happy lives. We recommend this book to our readers. It will be highly beneficial to every home. Parents should secure this book for themselves and their children. Neatly and attractively bound and illustrated; in paper covers, 25 cents; cloth covers, 50 cents.

FROM Australia comes the cheering word: “With the help of the Sabbath School Worker, not only the children's lessons, but also the senior lessons, are made clear and interesting. Our teachers find this good paper not only a help, but also a great spiritual blessing, for it gives the food that old and young require. I feel so thankful to the Lord for his great love and wisdom in bringing about such plans whereby we can study his holy Word. I trust you will have our club renewed at once, as we can not afford to miss one number.” From every section of the country, our Sabbath-school workers who are availing themselves of the Worker are writing us of the benefits derived from it. It costs only 35 cents a year, or 25 cents when two or more copies are sent to one address.

AN agent who sold more than a thousand copies of the March and April numbers of Life and Health has just written us that she thinks the May number is the best we have ever published. Orders for this number are coming in very rapidly. Boys and girls have excellent success in selling single copies. Write the publishers for particulars and sample copies.

THE children in our Sabbath-school should have the benefits of “Bible Object Lessons and Songs for Little Ones,” prepared especially for the use of kindergarten teachers. This book 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 plate; fifty-two pen drawings, showing how to use the illustrative material; one hundred and sixty pages filled with very practical information to all kindergarten and primary teachers. Bound in durable board, 7½ x 10 inches, $1.50; blue cloth, same size, $2.

THE old and tried book, “Daniel and the Revelation,” by Elder U. Smith, is still popular with the people. Though many thousands of this book have been sold, the demand is still good. The people are interested in its prophetic teachings. It is a verse-by-verse study of the prophecies recorded in the books of Daniel and The Revelation, and reveals many of these prophecies fulfilled, while it cites others still future. It contains 557 pages, exclusive of 66 full-page illustrations. Substantially bound in cloth, library, and morocco bindings, ranging in price from $2.25 to $4.50, post-paid. It is also printed on thin paper without illustrations, plain edges, one volume, $1. In paper covers, two volumes, 25 cents each.

ARE you not personally acquainted with some one person who is an officer or teacher in a Sunday-school? Have you thought of your favorable opportunity to interest him in “Desire of Ages” while the life of Christ is being studied during the present year? Send to your tract society for a free copy of a little booklet prepared especially to help the Sunday-school teachers find in “Desire of Ages” the vital truths of the topics composing the International Sunday-school Lessons for the present year. If every member would do as much as to interest one teacher in “Desire of Ages” at this very favorable time, the results would be at once observable. The opportunity is present, the way is easy, the material is at hand; who will be released from personal responsibility under so favorable circumstances?
