THE WORK — AND — THE WORKERS

I. B. MALLORY, New York City, writes: “I am still selling the magazine, Life and Health, and the people are delighted with it.”
Christian Education advocates a system of education that builds up faith in God, and centers its highest aim upon moral character.
“THE sample of Christian Education came yesterday, and I am much pleased with it. We believe it is just what we have needed for a long time.”
A GOOD example for other educators to imitate will be found in the following order from Prof. M. E. Cady for Christian Education: “Enclosed please find $35, for which send Christian Education for one year to the enclosed 100 addresses.”
LET all church-schools that have difficulty in meeting the expenses, consider the plan of the pupils selling periodicals and applying the profits on school expenses. Some of our church-schools are reporting very favorably on this method. Some say they are meeting the entire expense of the school by allowing the pupils some time to solicit for the magazines. The time of the student is not wasted in work of this nature.
“SCRIPTURAL EVIDENCES.”—This little book of convenient size for carrying in the pocket, contains a wealth of information. The work is comprehensive, so far as the Scriptures themselves furnish direct, positive proof upon each point of the subject treated. A splendid help to one who desires to be ready always to give a reason for the hope that is within him. All the texts of Scripture upon the subjects covered by the book, are collated and classified, so that one can find instantly all that the Scriptures say upon the subject. Cloth binding, 30 cents; leather binding, 60 cents.
WHILE the REVIEW is the church paper of the denomination, and is intended for only our own people, it is nevertheless a paper often appreciated by other church people. The proof of this statement can be found in the fact that some are constantly ordering various numbers to be used in missionary work. We quote the following from one who has been using different numbers of the REVIEW in missionary endeavor: “Yours of August 27 anent the fact mailing me 100 copies of REVIEW of August 12, just at hand. Will say that I will distribute these papers among my friends free, although, to my mind, it would be a good number to sell. Heretofore, I have confined myself to the Signs and Watchman, also Liberty, taking regularly fifty copies of the two papers a month, and have been able to do excellent work with them, but this number of the REVIEW is one of the best papers for general distribution that has come my way. The articles are excellent, and short.” If outside people like the REVIEW, certainly our people ought to like it, and keep it coming to their homes every week.
OUR new journal Christian Education, aims to reveal the correct view of all the duties and responsibilities of life, and encourage the moral force to rightly discharge them.
A BIBLE worker in Washington, D. C., has just reported a new convert to the faith as the direct result of a copy of Life and Health sold by an agent preparing the way for further investigation. This magazine is indeed an effectual “entering wedge” for the full message.
MISS M. P. SPARKS writes: “You ask which paper sells the best. I have been studying and experimenting with that problem, and to state the facts as they have been demonstrated in my experience, the paper that appeals to me the strongest is the one in which I can most readily interest others. I am getting more and more interested all the time myself. I sell from 7 to 20 papers a day, and when I get stronger physically, I expect to sell from 25 to 50 copies a day.”
