A Quart in a Pint—A Bible Wonder

MANY persons, perhaps unawares, have in reality asked as impossible a feat as that of putting the contents of a quart cup into a pint measure. How?—They want a Bible with very large type, and yet small enough in size to put into a pocket, not realizing that the larger the type, the larger must be the size of the page, and the larger the book.
However, this glad consummation has now practically been reached, for we are able to furnish a Bible but 7 inches long, 4⅞ inches wide, and 1 inch thick, printed in heavy black-face Brevier type. Read the sample of type given below, and see if it does not read as if much larger in size, because of its bold, clear face.

The blessedness 5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: 6 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches. 7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice. 8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me. 9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth. 10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes. 11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.
8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away. 9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing. 10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory. ## PSALM 65. 1 David praiseth God for his grace. 4 The blessedness of God's chosen. To the chief Musician, A Psalm and Song of David. PRAISE waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto
This Bible is printed on the famous India paper, and is the latest production of the Oxford University Press, the greatest Bible manufacturers in the world.

What Is Said About Testimonies, Volume VIII

I HAVE read a copy of “Testimonies,” Vol. VIII. It certainly contains a burning message to the church of to-day. No Seventh-day Adventist should be without it. R. A. UNDERWOOD, Pres. Northern Union Conf.
The copy of the “Testimonies” has been received, and I desire to express my sincere and heartfelt thanks to you for the same. I have looked forward with much desire to the reading of the volume. We will advertise the book thoroughly in our Union Record, and assure you that we shall spare no pains in recommending it, and in calling the attention of others to it. E. HARRIS, Sec. Texas Tract Society.
From what I have been able to see in the book thus far, I conclude that Volume VIII holds within its covers, perhaps, the most important information ever written for the denomination. A. J. BOURDEAU, Sec. California Tract Society.
Received yours of the 11th inst., also “Testimonies,” Vol. VIII. I thank you very much for the copy. I have read Section V with much interest, and esteem it a privilege to write a note concerning the value of this book, to be published in the Atlantic Union Gleaner. H. W. COTTRILL, Pres. Atlantic Union Conf.
Your letter, accompanied by Volume VIII of the “Testimonies,” duly received. I feel very grateful to the Pacific Press for the precious little treasure which has been presented to me. I have always been a great lover of the writings of Sister White, and can most sincerely and heartily recommend what she has written, and shall take pleasure in calling the attention of the people of the West Michigan Conference to Volume VIII. A. G. HAUGHEY, Pres. W. Mich. Conf.
We are in receipt of the complimentary copy of the “Testimonies,” Vol. VIII, for which we are very thankful. We appreciate the work very much, and will do our utmost to give it a large circulation in the conference. E. A. BRISTOL, Sec. N. Mich. Tract Society.
Your kind favor of the 11th inst. duly received; also Volume VIII of the “Testimonies.” It surely is a very pretty and neatly bound volume, while its teachings are simply invaluable. I shall do all I can to dispose of a goodly number of these books among our people throughout the conference. The instruction it contains is timely, and therefore of special importance to our people now. Sincerely yours, S. G. HUNTINGTON, Pres. W. Va. Conf.
I thank you most heartily for the thoughtfulness in sending an advance copy of Volume VIII. I quite agree with you as to the timeliness of the Volume, and shall do all I can to emphasize the fact. W. A. SPICER.
