The Open-Flat Bible

WE have just received a large shipment of the new Open-Flat Bible, and are again able to fill orders promptly. This Bible has met with such general favor, and so many orders were received, that our first shipment was exhausted, and we had to hold some orders several days waiting for the new stock. Read the description of those Bibles, and note the prices.

STYLE “A.”—Bering seal, divinity circuit, round corners, red under gold edges, silk head-band and marker, grained leather lining, silk sewed, India paper—a very serviceable book. $4.

STYLE “B.”—Persian morocco, divinity circuit, round corners, red under gold edges, silk head-band and marker, leather lined to edges, silk sewed, India paper—compares very favorably with Bibles which cost more. $5.

STYLE “C.”—Genuine levant morocco, divinity circuit, round corners, red under gold edges, silk head-band and marker, calf lined to edge, silk sewed, India paper—the perfection in Bible making. The cover has a rich, soft, flexible feeling, which immediately captivates one. $6. Prices include postage or express.

“Life and Health really does help me a great deal in the care of my six little ones, and I enjoy reading everything it contains. I send $1 for one year’s subscription.”

“ENCLOSED please find thirty-five cents, for which renew my subscription for your valuable paper, the Sabbath School Worker. I can not do without its assistance in Sabbath-school work.”

WE are getting many letters like the following: “I have had very little experience, having purchased some copies of the magazine from another worker. But I had splendid success, having sold 50 copies in a few minutes less than two hours. Please find enclosed $3, for which send me copies of Life and Health.”

“I THINK Christian Education is a good and important magazine to place in the homes of all our people. Christian education can never be appreciated too highly; nor can we get too much of it in fitting ourselves for the advantage of service in this world and the world to come. I trust the journal will have a good circulation in all fields.”

ACCOMPANYING a list of subscribers are the following words from Emily Johnson, a worker for the Protestant Magazine: “I enjoy selling the Protestant Magazine. I sold it in Lincoln while there attending the summer school. I had some interesting experiences. I am glad I can send you this list of subscribers, and I wish the magazine great success.”

A FORMER agent writes: “We thank you very much for your patience with us. I intend to again sell the magazine Life and Health, when my health improves. I enjoy selling the journal very much. This summer is the first time I have ever sold any. My best record was 55 papers in two and one-half hours.” Fifty-five papers in two and one-half hours, nets the worker $1.54 an hour. That is a good salary, especially for a pleasant and enjoyable work. Many others would make a profitable change if they would sell out, and go into the periodical work.

OUR grandfathers and grandmothers are taking a new lease on life, and entering the Master’s work. The following letter is only one of many we could quote in proof of this statement: “The October number of Life and Health is at hand, and will say that it is surely a seller. Every number seems to be better than the last one, and I am very sorry that I can not at present engage in the sale of the magazine. I am trying to dispose of my property here, so I can go into the work in earnest. You see I live on a farm, and have canvassed every one in reach of me. My first order was for 25 copies of Liberty. Thought if I could not sell them, I could give them away; but to my great surprise I sold them in a few minutes. I am sixty-eight years old. My next order was for 200 copies of Life and Health and 25 of Liberty, and I did real well with them. So now, if I can sell here, I intend to sell magazines as long as I can do anything.”
