The Gospel Reader

THIS book might be classed as a companion volume to, but in advance of, “Gospel Primer.” In telling many of the prominent Bible history stories, the author has not only done so in an interesting and simple manner, but has so guarded the grammatical construction that one can not help but note the difference between this and the many cheap story-books.

Bound in cloth, 75 cts.; in board covers, 50 cts.

The Gospel Primer

THE object of this little book is to teach reading, and at the same time to combine lessons that will instill into the mind of the reader words and truths from the gospel.

The first part of the book is given to the alphabet, each letter of which is connected with some Bible scene. The second part of the book is given to Bible stories, written so simply that any child can understand them.

Board covers, 25 cts.; cloth covers, 50 cts.

Reed’s Word Lessons

A COMPLETE Spelling Book for use in higher primary, intermediate, and grammar grades. Designed to teach correct spelling, pronunciation, and use of such words only as are most common in current literature, and as are most likely to be misspelled, mispronounced, or misused.

A unique feature of this speller is that space is given on each page to a correct use of the words of the lesson in sentences selected from the best writers, from the Bible, etc. Thus not only the correct spelling is taught, but the proper grammatical use of the words. Price, 35 cts.

Bell’s Language Series

THIS series gives an outline study of the English language, adapted to the training of the child from the nursery until he is graduated from college. These five books are based upon the natural method, giving and illustrating principles rather than rules, and are particularly suited to home study. A complete set of grammars, such as this, covering all grammatical problems, should be a treasure to any student, not alone during his school-days, but more particularly in after-life, when to determine a grammatical construction there is no teacher to whom it can be referred, except the books that were studied at school.

This language series is composed of the following:— Book 1, Primary Language Lessons from Life, Nature, and Revelation; 227 pp., cloth .......... $.65 Book 2, Elementary Grammar, 224 pp., cloth .......... .65 Book 3, Complete Grammar, 281 pp., cloth .......... .80 Book 4, Rhetoric and Higher English, 375 pp., cloth .......... 1.25 Book 5, Studies in English Literature, 599 pp., cloth .......... 1.75

Important Histories

The Empire Series

IT is well to make statements that such and such kings and kingdoms ruled during certain periods, and that certain things took place during their reign; but do you have a history to which you can turn and prove your assertions? It is this that carries conviction with your statements. If you have not, you should have a set of the histories written by A. T. Jones.

Volume I—Empires of the Bible

This is a history of the time from the fall of Babylon to the captivity. Researches in Babylon and Egypt have brought to light many valuable historical records inscribed on stone. These records the author has connected with Bible statements, showing how they agree. Price, $1.50.

Volume II—The Great Empires of Prophecy

A history of the times from Babylon to the fall of Rome, with particular attention to the prophecies of the book of Daniel. The quotations from more than eighty standard histories bring the writings of these historians to your hand in one volume, so that you have their own language, and therefore a veritable cyclopedia of history. Price, $2.

Volume III—Ecclesiastical Empire

This book contains an account of all the principal events that have affected civil government and tended to the establishment of ecclesiastical authority, from the time of the fall of Rome to the present day. It contains a good history of the Reformation and compendium of the principles of true Christianity, the reason for our national apostasy, and a full treatise upon the union of church and state. 874 pages. Price, $2.50.

Dictionary

WHAT boy or girl will not be pleased to have a dictionary, and particularly one that is so small and convenient that it will go into a vest pocket? What boy or girl should not have a dictionary in order that their reading and writing may be executed correctly and understandingly? This is important in their education.

Our Vest Pocket Dictionary, bound in cloth, 25 cts.; in Russia leather, 50 cts.; in Morocco, 60 cts. All are indexed.

New Series of Physiologies

THESE books constitute an entirely new and graded series for the study of physiology and hygiene in the schools. The important questions of sanitation and temperance are thoroughly treated from a scientific and physiological standpoint. Both books contain a full treatise on the nature and effects of alcoholic drinks and other narcotics.

Not only are these the latest text-books published on the subject, but they will also be found very valuable for home study, as they treat the subject in a clear, practical manner.

First Book in Physiology, 174 pp., illustrated, 40 cts.

Second Book in Physiology, 291 pp., illustrated, 80 cts. No other physiologies as practical as the Kellogg series.

Geographies

THIS important study receives attention in all schools. We know of no better books to offer than Morton’s Geographies for church-school work. Published in two grades,—the Elementary, which sells for 65 cts.; and the Advanced, which sells for $1.30.

Making Home Happy

A BOOK written for the purpose of making homes happy. It illustrates how an unhappy home was made happy, and cites the manner of securing this desirable condition in every home. It pictures, in pleasing narrative form, the relations that should exist in the home, and the influences that should be guarded and cultivated. Bound in cloth, 50 cts.; in paper, 25 cts.
