The Circulation of the Advent Review.
By John Nevins Andrews
This ought to be very greatly extended. It is an important work to obtain even one new subscriber, and thus to introduce the Review where before it has not gone. But this is not all that should be attempted. Comparatively few will subscribe. But there are many candid persons who will read the paper, if it be tendered to them for six months or a year free of expense. The generous offer of the Association, through its President, to send the Review for six months for half price, puts it into the power of our people to send it to a vast number of persons. It should not be sent till it is ascertained that the person who is to receive it will consider it a favor to have it. But careful inquiry will enable each one of us to find as many such persons as we can pay for, to have the Review six months. It is only fifty cents for that time. The better way, as we think in New England, is to furnish the names and the money to the Secretary of the Tract Society. But let us, by all means, do the work in some way.
