We Desire to Call Your Attention
By Editor
Again to this valuable series of papers soon to be issued. Every phase of the message will be treated in an attractive and interesting manner. The plan is meeting with favor everywhere. This series will be packed full of short, pithy articles on the Third Angel’s Message. Such subjects as The Soon Coming of Christ, The Sanctuary, The Sabbath, The Three Messages, The State of the Dead, Capital and Labor as a Sign of the Times, and The Judgment, will be given prominence. Different phases of each of the foregoing subjects will be treated in each number, and the titles of other phases to be treated in other papers will be given at the close of each. In this way the series will be bound together, so to speak, and the person who reads one will want to read all. A story in four sections, and excellent articles on “The Home” will appear also. An attractive cover design has been prepared by a prominent artist, which will add materially to the salable qualities of the series. There will be other and appropriate illustrations throughout. A table of contents will also appear on the cover of each number. These specials will take the place of the regular weekly issues of November, and will be mailed weekly during that month. This will give a week to circulate each number, which will be ample if rapid work is done. The objects of this series are:—- The presentation of the whole system of Truth connected with the Third Angel’s Message.
- To encourage missionary workers with the SIGNS to follow up the interest created by each sale or visit.
- To prepare the way for a larger and broader campaign for the circulation not only of the SIGNS OF THE TIMES, but other Message-filled publications as well.
The first number of the series will go to press about October 15, by which time it is hoped a large portion of the orders may have been received. If orders are received thus promptly, we can print more economically than if several editions are to be manufactured. But do not think because you may not have the opportunity of ordering so early that you cannot get papers; for we will do all in our power to supply the whole series to those ordering throughout the month of November. But be sure to order as early, if possible; yet order later if you must. The name of the series will be “The Third Angel’s Message Series.” As the series is really a large special number divided into weekly sections, each reader should have the opportunity of studying each section, therefore, we expect to print an equal number of each, and all orders must be for complete sets. It will be found more satisfactory to order through your Tract Society, but if this should be inconvenient for any reason, order direct from the PACIFIC PRESS PUB. CO., at its new address, Mountain View, Cal. In ordering clubs to your own address, the following is a good form to use:— “Please enter my name for . . . . . . . . . sets of Third Angel’s Message Series SIGNS OF THE TIMES, for which you will find . . . . . . enclosed.” If you wish the series sent to different names and addresses, say:— “Please send one set of Third Angel’s Message Series SIGNS to each of the following names, for which you will find . . . . . . enclosed.” From one to four sets of four papers each . . . . . . 20c per set.
Five or more sets to single names and addresses, 15c ” ”
Five to twenty sets to one address . . . . . . 12c ” ”
Twenty-five or more sets to one address . . . . . . 10c ” ” HOW PROMINENT WORKERS REGARD THIS SERIES
“I am heartily in favor of the plan for a ‘Third Angel’s Message’ Series of the SIGNS. That is just what is needed, something by which the great issues of present truth can be brought before tens and hundreds of thousands in a live, striking way. You may count me in among the workers to help circulate them like the leaves of autumn. I also like the suggestion to put forth organized efforts to stir whole counties in a systematic and thorough manner.
