OUR PAPER.

By D. P. Curtis

Yes, the REVIEW is our paper; and I often wonder how any of our brethren can consent to live from month to month, and from year to year, without it. I have just been reading the issue of Feb. 14. Bro. Cottrell's article, “Many called, Few chosen,” and Bro. Haskell's “Appeal for our Periodicals,” in that number, are worth a year's subscription. I wish to call the attention of our brethren everywhere to those two articles. If you have not read them, do so now. If you have read them, read them again. If there are brethren around you who do not take the paper, go to them with it, and read those articles to them. It will do you good; it will do them good. Appeal to them by their love to God, by their hope of Heaven, by their desire for the reward of well doing, to subscribe for the paper at once, and no longer starve their own souls and the souls of their families, for the lack of that mental and spiritual food which it serves up weekly, to all who read its well-filled pages. I do not see how any one who believes the third angel's message can afford to live without it.

Brethren, what Bro. Haskell says in that “Appeal” is true, in every line, in every word. May the Lord help you to believe it, realize it, act upon it.
