THE NEW TRACTS

Though the fire has temporarily delayed the publishing of these tracts, we are pleased to announce that in a few days, “We Would See Jesus,” “The Gospel Remedy for Present Day Isms,” and the “Signs of Our Times,” will be ready to ship in any quantities desired. The fourth tract, “What Do These Things Mean?” will not be ready for a short time. The delay in getting this tract out will not hinder in the proposed winter campaign, inasmuch as the other three tracts are to precede this one in their systematic distribution, “We Would See Jesus” being the first one recommended for circulation, the other three following as thought best by those employed in their distribution, and as may be demanded by local conditions.

In order that all may have some idea of the nature of these three tracts in advance, we give below a brief description of them.

We Would See Jesus

A thrilling presentation of the glories of the second coming of Christ, the climax of the plan of salvation, the end of sorrow, pain, death, and sin; reviving the hearts of all Christians, encouraging sinners to make preparations for that great event, and stimulating in all the desire to see Jesus. It is not controversial, but gives the reasons why every Christian should desire to see Jesus, and quotes and applies the scriptures which treat clearly the doctrine of his second coming.

Signs of Our Times

Present events, live issues of the day, which constitute signs of the coming of the Lord. Clear, forceful, interesting, and especially helpful to professional, business, and laboring men, who are constantly coming in contact with the conditions that in themselves constitute signs of the coming of the King of kings.

The Gospel Remedy for Present Day Isms

Spiritualism, Hypnotism, Christian Scientism, and Higher Criticism.

The isms of the day trace back to ancient heathen religions of the East. Their unparalleled growth in the nineteenth century revealed as Satan's masterly counterfeit of the true plan of salvation—God's great remedy for sin.

Each tract will be published in German, Danish, and Swedish. All contain sixteen pages. Price, 1 cent each. Order of the Review and Herald Publishing Co., Battle Creek, Mich., Pacific Press Publishing Co., Oakland, Cal., or State Tract Societies.

One Hundred Sets “History of the Sabbath”

For 40 cents each

The same signatures that are used in the regular “History of the Sabbath” are bound in three separate volumes with paper covers. The matter in every particular is the same as in the regular bound book. These paper volumes are slightly damaged, and we offer them, postpaid, for 40 cents per set as long as they last. Order of the Review and Herald Publishing Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Life of Joseph Bates

The life of Joseph Bates was full of unselfish motives and noble actions, and his biography is the best kind of reading for the young people. It contains 320 pages, and the price is reduced from 85 cents to 35 cents, postpaid.

This excellent book will soon be out of print. Only a limited number remain. All who want this book also “The Life of William Miller,” should order at once. Send all orders to Review and Herald, Battle Creek, Mich.
