A Splendid Tract!

By Editor

THE readers of the Review have already been informed of the publication of a little tract, called, "Thoughts for the Candid," on the life and death theme, by Eld. J. N. Andrews. We regard this as the best argument on the points on which it treats, of any that we ever read. The first proposition, "A Gloomy Doctrine," is worth the price of fifty such tracts. The writer has read it over and over again. Brethren, if you want to "let your light shine," just order a package of "Thoughts for the Candid," and distribute them among your neighbors. A bushel of wheat will buy two hundred, a fleece of wool as many more, a few pounds of butter, more than you could conveniently carry; and there are your various kinds of produce, just convert them into cash, and let mammon become the vehicle to spread God's blessed truth. Has your farm, the past summer, "had the smell of a field that hath the blessing of the Lord," then honor the Giver of every good and perfect gift by returning some of your substance into his treasury. God loves the cheerful giver; and these tracts, oh, spread them! spread them! G.
