THE WORK — AND — THE WORKERS

By Editor

UP to date we have printed 80,000 copies of the July Life and Health. This is 15,000 copies more than any previous record.
UP to June 28 we had received orders for 50,000 copies of the July Life and Health,—the best number issued. And still the orders continue to pour in!
MISS MYRTLE V. MAXWELL reports a sale of 124 copies of Life and Health in four hours, or 31 copies per hour; also another record of 45 copies sold in 30 minutes.
WHAT is worse than a summer cold? Why not send for a copy of “Colds; Their Cause, Prevention, and Cure,” and learn from it how to prevent taking cold? An ounce of prevention in the matter of colds, is worth even more than a pound of cure. A cold can be prevented. Send 25 cents for “Colds; Their Cause, Prevention, and Cure,” and learn how to do it.
MANY of our workers are demonstrating that the Life and Health Leaflets are very effective. These leaflets are envelope size, and treat upon timely health topics. On account of their moderate price they can be used in large quantities for general distribution. Topics covered in the series are: “Alcohol and Disease,” “Alcohol and Poverty,” “Counting the Cost of Alcohol,” “Is Alcohol a Food?” “The Cure for National Intemperance,” “Patent Medicines,” “Simple Treatment for a Cold,” “Effects of Tobacco Using,” “Pointed Facts About Tobacco,” “Pure Air in the Home.” A supply of these health tracts is carried by our State tract societies.
A MISSIONARY map of the world on the walls of our homes is a good object-lesson. A young man recently said that his first impression of personal responsibility in connection with the carrying of the message to heathen lands came to him as he daily beheld the missionary map on the dining-room walls of his mother’s home.
Our large missionary maps of the world are 50 x 87 inches in size, printed on strong cloth, and in attractive, fast oil colors, to represent the prevailing religions of the world. Available spaces are filled with appropriate texts, tables of population, statistics, and a striking diagram illustrating the numerical relations of the leading religions. The map is not only strong, large, and durable, suitable for hall and tent use, but is sold at prices within the reach of all — $2.25 without Seventh-day Adventist mission stations marked, and $2.75 with the stations marked. The regular retail price of this large map without stations marked, is $6.
We also have a small missionary map 24 x 36 inches, with our mission stations marked, for 75 cents. This map is not large enough for hall or tent work, but serves nicely for home, class, or personal study. The price of these maps includes the postage.
