“Not slothful in business.” Rom. 12:11.

T. AND M. CONSTITUTION—REVISED EDITION.

We have just issued a new edition of the T. and M. Constitution, with directions to officers and members, containing, in addition to the matter previously presented, instruction “How to Canvass” by Eld. Haskell, also an address on the importance of missionary work, by Mrs. E. G. White. The value of this little book cannot be overestimated. There is nothing so important to the earnest worker in the tract society as to know what his duties are, and how to perform them.

This book may be called the workman's guide; and every one who wishes to become a successful worker should get it and read it, re-read it, and study it till its sentiments and plans are understood and appreciated. No one can read it without becoming impressed with the importance of the missionary work, and we know of no better way to begin preparation for our fall work than to secure the reading of this book by each one of our T. and M. officers and members. Price, in flexible cloth, 10 cts. In paper covers, 5 cts.

A Notice of expiration of subscription will be given by special stamp on the margin of the paper. We should be pleased to receive your renewal at once.

NOTICE.—The change of figures on the address labels will be in all cases a sufficient receipt for money sent for the paper. If these changes do not in due time appear, and if books ordered by mail are not received, notice should be given. All other business is acknowledged below.
