Three Ways of Doing

By Editor

We feel confident that every Seventh-day Adventist will wish to take an active part in helping to circulate the Capital and Labor number of the Signs of the Times. We wish to call attention to three ways in which this may be done.

First, by taking a certain number and selling them on the street, or from house to house. For those who can spare the time, this is the best way; for it brings them face to face and in personal touch with the people. If necessary, this work can be done in the evening after the regular day's labor, and without expense. Indeed, it may be made a source of income, as twenty-five papers cost only seventy-five cents, and can be sold for one dollar and a quarter.

The statistics which this number contains are worth the price of the paper, to say nothing of the general articles and striking illustrations. The paper will sell at sight.

Second, those who can not take the time, or for other reasons can not engage in selling the paper from house to house, can take a club of from five to one hundred copies, or more, and mail them to their friends, or to a select list of names. Ministers, school-teachers, and professional men should certainly have a copy of this paper. Perhaps some will feel a burden to send to such. The price to you is only three cents a copy in lots of twenty-five and upward—a very inexpensive way in which to do missionary work.

Third, possibly there may be some who do not have the time even to attend to re-mailing the papers. Such can send a list of names to the office of publication, and have the papers sent directly to the individuals. The charge when sent in this way is as follows:—

1 to 24 copies, 5 cents per copy.

25 to 99 copies, 4 cents per copy.

100 or more copies, 3½ cents per copy.

This price includes wrapping, addressing, and mailing.

The retail price of this special number is 5 cents per copy.

5 to 20 copies, 4 cents per copy.

25 or more copies to one address, 3 cents per copy.

Address Signs of the Times, Oakland, Cal., or your State tract society.
