“The World’s Crisis” Sells

By F. W. Stray

MANY persons do not attempt to sell our books because they are not trained, and think they cannot succeed; but we now have a little book that everybody can sell. Its price is twenty-five cents, and it gives the message—signs, Sabbath, and all—condensed. All that you have to say to introduce the book is to read the title, and add, “What the Bible says about the war. There is no other book like it.” Do not take orders, but deliver on the spot.

Two farmers in Center Barnstead thought they would try it, and ordered fifty. Each began work at about 11 A. M. One went to a near-by city, and disposed of twenty books before night, in offices and stores. The other began over against his own house, and sold eighteen among the farmers before night. So thirty-eight books right up-to-date on the message were placed in different homes in one day. This book is read. Let everybody take hold of it, and order in lots of from twenty-five to one thousand copies.

Many will embrace the truth after reading this book. I urge all our brethren and sisters to distribute it. You will earn good pay and be doing missionary work of the highest order. Start out, and by presenting this book, give every one within reach a chance to learn the truth before it is too late.—F. W. Stray, in the Atlantic Union Gleaner.
