THE WORK — AND — THE WORKERS

The Protestant Magazine is thus early yielding results, in so far as it is bringing many Protestants to the realization of the true present attitude of Catholicism toward Protestantism. The following statement is made by a Protestant who is not a Seventh-day Adventist: “Dear Sirs: Find enclosed 25 cents for renewal of subscription for the Protestant Magazine, which tells the truth concerning the savagery of that institution—Catholicism—during a long term of years; it would to-day, if it had the power, exterminate every Protestant living.”
MISS SADIE BAKER, missionary secretary of the Ontario Conference, states that one company of magazine agents not long ago made the best record of the campaign in Toronto, Ontario, having visited and worked the cities of Cincinnati, Louisville, Indianapolis, Detroit, and Buffalo. She says, “In four and one-half hours they sold 723 magazines, an average of 90 copies each. Last summer one of our workers in Brantford, Ontario, sold 100 copies of Life and Health in one-half day. There is no reason why the ten-cent magazines can not be sold as successfully in Canada as in the United States.”

NEARLY all classes of people are becoming interested in the circulation of Life and Health. The following is just received from an assistant railroad station agent: “It is impossible for me to get off during the week, though I have no trouble in getting off on the Sabbath. Under the circumstances I was moved to go out on the street with Life and Health evenings. I felt that the Lord was leading me. The first evening I was out, in a very short time I sold all the magazines I had with me. I secured the customers' promise to take the next issue when I came around with it. One gentleman, cashier of the First National Bank, paid me in advance on my monthly deliveries. I only call on the leading men of the town, such as physicians, bankers, merchants, lawyers, etc. I usually say to them that I wish to place in their hands a live, up-to-date health magazine, written by conscientious Christian physicians; that I am taking subscriptions for the magazine for only ten cents a month—ten cents for the copy I have, and ten cents when I deliver each number; or if any one prefers to do so, he may pay $1 in advance, and have the magazine sent direct to his address for one year. This is about all the canvass I have time to give.”
