News from Burma and Magazine Agents

Word comes from Brother H. H. Votaw, Burma, that another Karen is keeping the Sabbath. It will be of interest to all to know that a definite appointment has been made, and a young man and his wife have been asked by the Mission Board to enter upon work among the Karens. It is hoped they will be able to respond to the call soon, and thus answer this long-standing appeal for help for these very interesting people among whom Judson began his gospel work.
As Elder E. E. Miles, the field agent of the Massachusetts Conference, puts it: “Our agents who handle the ten-cent magazines clear a profit of 150 per cent on their investment each month, or 1,800 per cent a year!” Agents for the Ladies’ Home Journal pay eleven cents a copy for that magazine, which they sell for fifteen cents, and they succeed well.
