TRACTS

By James White

The time has come for our tracts to be circulated with a much more liberal hand than they have been. In this good field of labor, all can work. And to encourage this worthy enterprise, the Trustees of the Publishing Association decided to furnish Tracts at the Office at cost. Hence, in a late Review, the following appeared:

“The Association will furnish tracts to ministers, and to others to distribute gratuitously, at the following cheap rates: 4-page tracts, at 25 cts. per hundred. 8-page tracts, at 50 cts. per hundred. 16-page tracts, at $1.00 per hundred. 24-page tracts, at $1.50 per hundred. 32-page tracts, at $2.00 per hundred.”

This is only $1.00 for 1600 pages. When very large editions are printed, and hands work for low wages, our uncovered tracts can be furnished by the hundred at the Office, at these rates. But these exceedingly low prices will no more than cover cost. Some are ordering them by mail, post-paid, at these rates. In all such cases, the postage, and cost and time of mailing, is a loss. In order that the tract enterprise be not a burden to the Association, they must be sold at the following rates:

At the Office by Exp. or R. R. By Mail. Less than 100 by Mail. 4-page tracts, 25 cts. per 100. 37 cts. At the rate of 50 cts. per 100. 8-page tracts, 50 cts. per 100. 75 cts. At the rate of $1.00 per 100. 16-page tracts, $1.00 per 100. $1.50. At the rate of $2.00 per 100. 24-page tracts, $1.50 per 100. $2.25. At the rate of $3.00 per 100. 32-page tracts, $2.00 per 100. $3.00. At the rate of $4.00 per 100.

Care will be taken to furnish those tracts, and those only, which the times demand. Let all the living, active members of the church of Christ work while the day shall last. Send your orders. JAMES WHITE.
