CHRIST’S OBJECT LESSONS

By Mrs. E. G. White. This volume of 436 pages from the pen of Mrs. White is an attractive grouping of the parable-teaching of Christ. The linking of divine truth with common things and incidents is a prominent characteristic of Him who “taught as never man taught;” and in this book the author has developed and illustrated in a beautiful way these teachings, making a volume full of gems of truth, and which will give to many readers a new meaning to the surroundings of every-day life. The publishers have taken great pains to make the setting worthy of the gem, as to both mechanical work and illustrations. The latter are by talented New York artists, and have been expressly designed for this book. Handsomely ornamented cloth cover, $1.25. By mail, 15 cents additional. Also in German, Danish, and Swedish, at same price.

DANIEL AND THE REVELATION

Revised edition, by Uriah Smith. A history of the rise and fall of nations, being an exposition, verse by verse, of the important prophecies of Daniel and John, comparing Scripture predictions with historical facts. It follows in the track of no other commentary; but, guided by the obvious rule that the Bible should be its own interpreter, it aims to arrive at the exact meaning of the sacred writers in harmony with the great plan of redemption as presented throut the Scriptures. The author has devoted over thirty years to the study of the Bible, and believes that the prophecies of Daniel and John were written for our admonition, and that the subjects they unfold are the coming themes for the religious world, destined to engage the attention of all thoughtful minds. 754 pages, with illustrations, beautifully bound. Plain cloth, $1.50; cloth, marbled edges, $2.75; library, marbled edges, $3.75; leather, marbled edges, $4.75; paper-covered edition, in two volumes, 50 cents.

THE DESIRE OF AGES

By Mrs. E. G. White. The life of Christ presented in a new and beautiful form. Its whole object is to show that in Christ the love of the Father is revealed, and that we may live the life He lived if we rightly connect with the same Source of power. The illustrations number about 300, and are largely original. It contains nearly 900 royal octavo pages, printed on enamel finish paper, with wide margins. The bindings are handsome, as well as substantial. Cloth, marbled edges, $3.00; half morocco, marbled edges, $4.50; full morocco, $6.00; trade edition, no illustrations, thin paper, smaller type, cloth bound, $1.50; leather bound, $2.00.

THE GREAT CONTROVERSY BETWEEN CHRIST AND SATAN

By Mrs. E. G. White. This volume presents the most wonderful and intensely interesting history that has ever been written of the great conflict between Christianity and the powers of darkness, as illustrated in the lives of Christian martyrs and reformers on the one hand, and wicked men and persecuting powers on the other. Beginning with our Lord’s great prophecy, given while viewing Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives, this book outlines the history of the whole dispensation down to the time when “sin and sinners are no more, God’s entire universe is clean, and the great controversy is forever ended.” It contains 39 full-page illustrations, nearly all of them new and specially engraved. It is printed on fine tinted paper, beautifully and substantially bound, and contains 700 octavo pages. Over 200,000 copies already sold. English cloth, embossed in jet and gold, marbled edges, $2.75; library, marbled edges, $3.75; full leather, marbled edges, $4.75.

HERALDS OF THE MORNING

By A. O. Tait. A new edition of this popular work, enlarged and thoroly up to date. It treats on the second coming of Christ, and the signs that the Scriptures tell us should precede that great event. It tells the meaning of the appalling loss of life by murder and suicide, and by fearful calamities on every hand, of the capital and labor troubles, strikes, fires, perplexity among the nations socially and politically, and the significance of the great phenomena in nature as portrayed all around us. With all this Christ is presented as the Friend of sinners, and His coming as the cheering hope of His children. It points out the place of refuge for those who would be shielded amid the perils of these last days, and how we may be saved from the great deceptions that Satan is multiplying in the earth. The light from the “sure word of prophecy” is turned on life’s pathway, clearing up the obscurity and brightening it up amid the troubles and perplexities, even unto the dawning of the morning of the eternal day when strife shall cease. More than 150 illustrations vividly portray that upon which the subject-matter treats. A live book upon a live subject. 384 pages, cloth, marbled edges, $2.00.
