THE BIBLE OR TRADITION?

A review of a book by Rev. R. A. Torrey, entitled "Ought Christians to Keep the Sabbath?" The author, Pastor C. H. Edwards, says: "It is not our intention to answer or refute the general arguments presented, but to let the doctor's arguments stand side by side, and notice their force and conclusion." This he has done in such a striking and convincing way that even the casual reader can not escape the conclusion arrived at.

A unique feature of the tract is a series of seven cartoons by one of New York's leading cartoonists. A specimen of these is shown herewith.

The tract contains 32 pages, and will be sent for $1.60 a hundred, post-paid.

HYMNS AND TUNES

AT SEVENTY-FIVE CENTS Our stock of the new, thin paper edition of "Hymns and Tunes" has just been received. It is well printed and bound, and the 75 cents includes the prepayment of postage. Surely no one ought to be without a hymn book when a copy can be secured at this price.

MINISTRY OF HEALING

Mrs. E. G. White's new book, "Ministry of Healing," makes the best holiday gift of the season. It contains 541 pages; is beautifully illustrated; and sells for $1.65 post-paid. Descriptive circular will be sent on request.

THE GREAT SECOND ADVENT MOVEMENT

Have you read Eld. Loughborough's new book, entitled "The Great Second Advent Movement?" It has just been published by the Southern Publishing Association, Nashville, Tennessee, at $1.50 post-paid.

Of his plan of the book, the author says: "Having been familiar with the advent movement in 1843 and 1844, and having, since Jan. 2, 1849, proclaimed the doctrine, first as an Adventist, and since 1852 as a Seventh-day Adventist, I esteem it a pleasure to 'speak the things I have seen and heard.'"

As the manifestation of spiritual gifts has been closely associated with the advent movement, Eld. Loughborough has given that subject careful attention. In referring to this portion of his book, he says:

"Even those who are only slightly conversant with Seventh-day Adventist history know that since 1845 Mrs. E. G. White has been prominently connected with the movement, both as a speaker and writer. They also know that connected with her work there have been peculiar exercises, or gifts. It has been my privilege to be present and witness the operation of this gift about fifty times.

In addition to my own observations, I have also presented the testimony of other eye-witnesses respecting their experiences. Such facts should have more weight with the candid reader than random statements made by those who have never been present on such occasions."

This is a book of far more than ordinary interest and importance. Address the publishers, or Pacific Press Publishing Company.

HOME PEACEFUL

Those of our readers who have been following Mrs. L. D. Avery-Stuttle's articles in the Home Department of the SIGNS, will be glad to know that her book entitled "Home Peaceful," which has been out of print for about two years, is soon to be re-issued. We can not state just when it will be ready, but perhaps within six weeks. It will be bound in cloth, and will sell for fifty cents.

Orders may be sent in at once, and they will be filled as soon as ready.
