TRACT SOCIETIES, ATTENTION.
By Maria L. Huntley
BOUND VOLUMES OF OUR PERIODICALS.
The demand for reading matter has been such that it has been thought advisable to bind in paper covers the back numbers of our periodicals, which have been stored away in the Office buildings. This has accordingly been done in a neat, tasty manner, and below we give the prices:— Review and Herald, large size, per number, ........ $ .02
" " small " " " ........ .01
Voice of Truth, large " " " ........ .02
" " small " " " ........ .01
True Missionary, ........ per volume ........ .10
Youth’s Instructor, large size, " " " ........ .12
" " small size, " " " ........ .06
Health Reformer, " " " ........ .25
Advent Tidende, also the Svensk Harold, per volume, (1874) ........ .25
Advent Tidende, also the Svensk Harold, per volume, (later than 1874) ........ .40 Single numbers of these periodicals, one cent each. A brief sketch of the origin and history of Seventh-day Adventists is given on the covers of these bound volumes; also a notice of the various tract societies, with the address of the presidents and of our agents in other countries, accompanied with explanations relative to the object and work of these societies, a notice of our general depositories of publications in the various State Conferences, etc. These periodicals contain valuable reading matter; and those societies located in border States, and those having seaports, can use large quantities of them to advantage. Wherever reading matter is scarce and money is hard to be obtained, or on board vessels, people will gladly read matter that is not newly printed. In fact, so large a quantity of useful, interesting reading matter can in no other way be obtained for so little money. Each Review or Voice contains interesting reading matter that would amount to about sixty pages if printed in tract form. The True Missionary is valuable for the information it contains on the tract and missionary work. Questions which are answered in these papers arise almost weekly, with reference to this department of the work. To new churches, and to individuals just embracing the truth, they are especially serviceable. Every family should have one copy for reference. The articles from Sr. White which they contain are worth much more than the cost of the volume. We hope to hear at once from those societies that can make use of these bound volumes of our periodicals. Maria L. Huntley, Sec. Gen. T. and M. Society.
