                                                             A. Milton Musser.




                           NEW PUBLICATIONS.

The Reorganized Church vs. Salvation for the Dead,

         Is the title of a 25 page tract by Elder Joseph F.                  Smith, Jr.
It is a conclusive argument showing that the ''Reorganite" church,

as it is here called for the            first   time,   is   apostate from the doc-
trines and revelations of the Prophet Joseph Smith on the subject
of baptism and salvation for the dead.                  It contains, also,    an editor-
ial   on the subject from the Times and Seasons,                        by the Prophet
Joseph, and the Articles of Faith.                Deseret News, or Bureau of In-
formation.       Salt   Lake    City.      Price 30 cents per dozen, 2 copies,
5 cents.

Outlines of Mormon Philosophy,

       A beautifully printed volume of 123 pages, setting forth some
of      answers given by the gospel, as revealed through the
      the
Prophet Joseph Smith, to the questions of life, and designed as a
centenary souvenir,        to commemorate the one-hundredth anniver-
sary of the Prophet's birth.   The book is written by Lycurgus A.
Wilson, author of the Life of David W. Patten, and, as its title im-
plies,      touches briefly the outlines,- or high places, of               "Mormon"
philosophy.       Salt Lake City, price 75 cents.
