LIFE OF CHRIST LIBRARY.

We have just completed this valuable library by binding the eight pamphlets on the lives of Christ and his apostles into five neat volumes, in flexible cloth covers, with black side title.

Vol. i. contains the First Advent and Ministry of Christ.

Vol. ii. contains His Teachings and Parables.

Vol. iii., His Mighty Miracles.

Vol. iv., His Sufferings, Crucifixion, Resurrection, and Ascension.

Vol. v., The Ministry of Peter and the Teachings of Paul.

All are incased in a cardboard box made for the purpose.

This library has been prepared for the use of our brethren who have wanted the church library to lend to neighbors, but who could not afford to pay the full price, the reduced rates being made only to churches.

Our ministers, too, can use them to advantage, and have called for them in this form that they might lend them to interested persons during a course of lectures, or series of meetings.

This library contains nearly the same reading matter found in Spirit of Prophecy Vols. ii. and iii., and being bound in five volumes will be very handy to lend. We know of no better way to remove prejudice against the writings and special work of the author of these books than by a thorough circulation of this library by brethren, ministers, and tract societies.

Price, by mail, postpaid, $1.50.
