MAKE MONEY AND DO GOOD

By selling good books that the people want. The first edition of 10,000 copies of this new book is already selling rapidly and is doing great good. It will attract both saint and sinner. Some of the old time sermons that moved the multitudes toward God, like men slain in battle, until their cries seemed to rend the very heavens, are recorded in this book. The description of sin and depravity, of hell and the judgment, by such men as Edwards, Bunyan, Fletcher, Whitfield, Finney, Caughey, Finley, and many others, will waken the slumbering conscience and reveal the wrath of God against sin and this evil generation.

FROM TESTIMONIALS RECEIVED, WE SELECT A FEW.

Michigan Presbyterian:"A mine of gold. Thoroughly practical. Intensely interesting. It will stir the soul."The Way of Faith:"In this timely book the author discusses 'Old Time Views of Sin and Depravity,' 'Old Time Conviction and Repentance,' 'Old Time Conversion,' and so on through ten chapters. Old time revivals are described and incidents related which are calculated to thrill the reader and beget a longing desire for the return of the Old Time Revival Power."Bishop N. Castle:"It surely has the old time swing. It is rich in sentiment, thrilling, heart-inspiring. It certainly will have a large sale."The Free Methodist:"An excellent compilation of facts in connection with old time revivals and contains much solid truth respecting old time repentance, conversion, and righteousness. The author quotes from 'Fletcher's Appeal,' Bunyan's 'Pilgrim's Progress,' James B. Finley, James Caughey, and other noted 'old time' writers and evangelists. The work is full of interest and can but do good. We bespeak for it a large sale."Religious Telescope:"'The Old-Time Religion,' by S. B. SHAW, is a new book, which is a revelation of the awful corruption of sin and of the mighty transforming power of the grace of God. Other books by the same author have had a sale of nearly a HALF MILLION copies, and we consider this book fully equal, if not superior, to any of them."
