Inducements to Agents.

By Editor

THE experience of those who have been working to increase the circulation of the Signs during the winter of 1883-84 has been very encouraging.

There is power in the truth, and the Present Truth, printed weekly in the Signs of the Times, will move the people, if it is read continuously.

One subscriber obtained is of more real value than many papers given away, and will cost less. Therefore, to induce all our friends to engage in the work of increasing the number of paying subscribers to the Signs, we make the following liberal offers:—

FOR FIVE NEW SUBSCRIBERS we will mail a copy of either of the following choice books: "The Biblical Institute," "The History of the Waldenses," illustrated, "Geikie's Life of Christ," "Life and Epistles of St. Paul," the New Testament—revised version—American edition, "Sketches from the Life of Paul," by Mrs. E. G. White; or the new edition of "United States in Prophecy," by Eld. Uriah Smith.

FOR SIX NEW SUBSCRIBERS we will give you your choice of the following: Blunt's "Coincidences" and Paley's "Evidences;" "The Story of the Bible;" "Pilgrim's Progress," (Porter & Coates' 16-mo. illustrated); "Thoughts on Daniel;" "Palestine for the Young;" "Thoughts on Revelation;" The "Comparative New Testament;" The "Schonberg-Cotta Family;" "The Giant Cities of Bashan and Syria's Holy Places," or "The Coming Conflict," new edition.

FOR TWELVE NEW SUBSCRIBERS your choice of "The Fables of Infidelity;" D'Aubigne's "History of the Reformation," (complete in one volume); Whiston's "Josephus," (Porter & Coates' edition, price $3.00); Cruden's Complete Concordance;" Geikie's "Life of Christ," (large print edition), or "Sabbath Readings," (in four volumes).

When prizes are sent by mail, postage will be charged. Your choice of either of the premium books, "Geikie's Life of Christ," "Sketches from the Life of Paul," by Mrs. E. G. White, or Conybeare and Howson's "Life and Epistles of St. Paul," will be sent to each new subscriber when $2.25 is received.

The prizes will be furnished by the party to whom the subscriptions are sent. Thus all persons doing business through the Tract Society, will receive their prizes from the State Secretary of said society.

Any person working for a prize must state his intention when the first subscriptions are sent, that an account may be kept of the names.

If any donate their labor and do not claim a prize, it will benefit their Tract Society to the value of the prize.

Canvasser's outfit, comprising a premium book, circulars, blank receipt book, order sheets, and suggestions on canvassing, will be furnished by mail post-paid for $1.00. Address, Signs of the Times, Oakland, Cal.

BIBLE SANCTIFICATION:

A CONTRAST OF

TRUE AND FALSE THEORIES.

BY MRS. E. G. WHITE.

THIS is a pamphlet of only 84 pages, but its value is not to be judged by its size. It is just what its title indicates: a faithful presentation of Bible truth on this important subject, and an exposure of the false theories prevailing in regard to it. Every believer in Bible truth should read it. Buy it, read it, and lend it to your neighbor. Price, 10 cents.
