“Plain Facts.”

“My people perish for lack of knowledge.” “Know thyself” means study of something more than a theological system, even though it be correct. The inner life must be right, or theories of perfect truth relative to the second coming of Christ, the state of the dead, the Sabbath, etc., are made to appear as error; for a false life brands them false also; and thus in the home, the Church, the world, is consistent truth degraded to the low level of inconsistent life. The tendencies of the flesh and influences in the world should awaken us to “lift up a standard for the people” in the days of the coming of the Son of man, when the condition of the world is fast coming to be “as it was” in the days of Sodom and the antediluvian world. Those who want true help in this fundamental work for themselves, their children, and others, will find neglected present truth in “Plain Facts,” by Dr. J. H. Kellogg, a beautiful illustrated volume of about 800 pages, now ready for Seventh-day Adventists at a special 40 per cent discount until Jan. 1, 1902. See advertisement, page 807, for further particulars.

Week of Prayer Notes in the Review

ARE you reading what is said in the Week of Prayer Notes, which constitute a special feature of the REVIEW at this time? The articles in this department are designed to call attention to some needy parts of the field which should be especially remembered during the Week of Prayer, and to prepare our people for this important season. Let us all earnestly co-operate with the efforts that are thus put forth.

Why the Review Beats a Daily Newspaper

WHICH is better, to have your friend pay from fourteen to twenty cents each week for a daily newspaper, and wade, as it were, through its muddy contents to secure a few news items in each copy, or for him to subscribe for the REVIEW at only three cents a week, and get all the important news boiled down in the News and Notes Department? Have a little talk with him to this effect, showing him a sample copy. Then tell him that the News Department is but ONE of the many interesting departments found in the REVIEW each week.
