Book and Tract Department.

Cast thy bread upon the waters; for thou shalt find it after many days.
EDITED BY ELD. JAMES WHITE.
We are printing very large editions of our best pamphlets and tracts for general circulation. For example: In a few days we shall have the second edition, of nearly eleven thousand, of Bro. Andrew's sermons on the Law and Sabbath, ready. This edition has eleven sermons, one added to the former edition, in review of Dr. Akers' Biblical Chronology, containing the Doctor's famous Sunday seventh-day theory. The addition of this sermon will greatly increase the value of this before very valuable pamphlet.
Also, we design to issue large editions of pamphlets on Our Faith and Hope. We hope to have them ready in a few weeks.
Our people have done nobly on the book fund. What we most want is, devoted, godly, praying, self-sacrificing men and women to circulate such books, pamphlets, and tracts, as Life Incidents, Sermons on the Law and Sabbath, Sermons on our Faith and Hope, The Seventh-part-of-Time Theory, Review of Gilfillan, The Truth Found, The Law and Gospel, God's Memorial, Sufferings of Christ, Seven Reasons for Sunday Keeping Examined, Who Changed the Sabbath? Men and women are wanted for this work who feel for souls, who can weep over precious souls, and agonize with God in prayer for success in the work of book circulation.
We want men and women of good intelligence, and good address, who will not scringe in their feelings to urge the sale of our books. We want men and women of sanctified judgment to judge where to give the books, and how many at a time. It is not our anxiety simply to get rid of the books. We want them circulated, but where they would be most likely to do good. Those who have liberally donated to the fund especially should not hesitate to send in orders if they have a chance to make good use of the books. Send in your orders. And you that have the Lord's money on hand for this good work, send it along; and we will do all we can to urge on the good and glorious work. Let all take part in this work, with their money, or their time, or with both.
