THIRTY THOUSAND ON THE WAY.
On October 11 the Shipping department of the Review and Herald received from the Manufacturing department the first installment of completed books of the first edition of “Marvel of Nations,” and by November 4 nearly all the edition of 10,000 was shipped out, and orders given for the printing of another edition of 10,000, and for the stock for the third edition of 10,000 more. Thus steps have been taken at this early date toward publishing 30,000 copies of this excellent book. From all parts of the country encouraging reports are coming from those who are engaged in canvassing for “Marvel of Nations.” It is a good book to sell, and many thousands of it ought to be put into the homes of the people during the present winter. It serves as an entering wedge for other books, inasmuch as it creates a desire for further study of the prophecies. The American people are ever interested in the historical past and the present of this country, and on account of this fact it is comparatively easy to interest them in the “Marvel of Nations,” which contains a compendium of important facts in connection with the development of the United States, and through these they are brought to the important features of the book—the Scriptural future of our nation, the final termination of all earthly governments, and the coming kingdom of God. The very nature of the book renders it easy to sell, and it contains the message for this time. God has associated the rise and progress of this nation with the Third Angel’s Message, and the design of “Marvel of Nations” is in compliance with this plan, and therefore it cannot fail to accomplish much good, nor to find its way into the homes of many to whom the message is due. Let those who can devote all, or even a part, of their time in canvassing for this book send to their State Tract Society for a prospectus and assigned territory, and begin to work at once while the times are good, and while the people are buying books. The price of the prospectus is 60 cts., postpaid. The retail price of the book is $1.25 and $1.50. All agents receive 50 per cent discount.
