The August “Signs” Monthly

By Editor

THE fact that fifty-three thousand copies of the July Signs of the Times Monthly were circulated is evidence that this messenger of truth is appreciated.
A leading feature for August will be a description of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, written by the editor, who visited it, and gathered information and photographs with this number in mind. It shows the purpose of the exposition as viewed by a student of world progress, and arouses interest in an article following, entitled “Westward the Course of Empire Takes Its Way,” by Elder M. C. Wilcox, which interestingly presents the prophecies being fulfilled in the marvelous development in this country, including the great Northwest, thus showing from a Bible standpoint to what place in the world's history this period of progress brings us.

Among other articles, teaching each phase of the message, are:— Life and Work of Christ, Mrs. E. G. White; Shall We Recognize Matter, or Spirit Only? Elder R. A. Underwood; Has Sunday a Bible Foundation? Elder C. L. Taylor; Needs of the Soul; How Supplied, Elder Wm. Covert; Fundamental Principles of Religious Liberty, Elder W. A. Colcord; The Home, Temperance, and Bible Reading departments are filled with interest.
Just a word from the last letter from one of two young women now on their second month's work in Sacramento, Cal., shows how faithful effort is being rewarded: “Today I worked three hours in residence district, and sold twenty; two hours in business district, and sold forty. The last three days I have worked twelve hours, and have sold 160 papers.” These workers have visited the State capitol building twice, selling thirty-six in June, fifty-four in July. They are working hard, and averaging about one dollar an hour.
We invite you most earnestly to take part in circulating the Signs Monthly, beginning with the August number. Twenty-five copies cost one dollar; they bring two dollars and a half, with which to continue the work; one hundred cost four dollars; you sell them for ten dollars. Order early of your tract society; ask for the “Signs Worker;” study the paper and the canvass; and enjoy the real service which this work offers.
