Two Calebs

By A. O. Burrill

A few weeks ago I spent one day canvassing at Colden, N. Y. I met an aged couple who long had loved the message. The husband recently had a shock, and is feeble. They seem to have the same kind of riches which were possessed by Lazarus. From their scanty purse they paid for one copy of “Christ’s Object Lessons,” and I left another for them. Soon the pay came for that, and an order for four more. In a few days came an order for eight more, saying, “I will see what we can do. I think we can dispose of them.” This will make fourteen copies of “Christ’s Object Lessons” in his home. If they had begun to think of their age and how infirm they were, how many books would they have sold?

The spirit of Caleb will sell thousands of these volumes. The Lord will go out before us. Of the one hundred copies of “Christ’s Object Lessons” which came less than a month ago, I have about twenty left. These will soon be out among the people. We hope we can dispose of another hundred before the season is over. Sister Millington sells many copies of this book. If we will follow up this work, and we ought, New York can sell her quota of them.
