How to Live.

By James White

THIS work, in six Pamphlets neatly put up in paper covers, 400 pages of reading matter in all, is now complete, and we have sent all the numbers by mail, post paid, to about eight hundred only, who had subscribed for the work, leaving twenty hundred at the Office waiting for orders. We did suppose there was sufficient interest upon the health question among our people to have taken the entire edition before this time. But in this we have been greatly disappointed. Reform moves slowly. The day of God will come upon very many, before they are half ready to live as they should in this world.

But these books have been prepared with great care by Mrs. White, who has devoted the past six months almost exclusively to them. She has selected from the ablest and best authors, those portions which relate to every day life. She has also written a chapter for each one of the six pamphlets, entitled Disease and its Causes. If our people could realize the real merit of this series of pamphlets, if they could be convinced that they may learn to live so as to save the pains and expense of sickness, and avoid its shattering influence upon the system, they would at once obtain them.

Health Journals are doing a great work for the world. But you may have to read one of them years to gather all the important facts necessary to right living. The Review and Herald holds its place in regard to religious reform; but if we wish to get our views on vital points of Bible truth before persons at once, we hand out a few of our best pamphlets which have been prepared expressly for the purpose.

So with the six pamphlets entitled How to Live. They have been prepared expressly, friends, to meet your present wants upon the subject of healthful living. We send the six pamphlets, post paid, for $1.00. We also have them bound in a neat volume, post paid, for $1.25—with the photograph of the writer of Disease and its Causes upon a heavy leaf in the front of the volume, $1.50. Take your choice. J. W.
