SPECIAL NOTICE.

By Editor

AFTER July 1 the price of the Missionary Magazine will be 50 cents per year; to foreign countries, 75 cents. This decision was reached at the recent meeting of the Foreign Mission Board, after carefully considering the question in all its phases.

The Missionary Magazine has been published at a loss from its first issue, this heritage having been received from the Home Missionary, out of which it emerged. The subscription list has more than doubled, and yet the cost of the paper has been about twice the subscription price, and it will be impossible to ever secure a list sufficiently large to make it self-supporting at 25 cents. Because of this, the price was raised to 50 cents, which will practically pay the cost of publication.

The Magazine has been before our people more than two years, so that they can judge of its value. It has been printed on better paper than the Home Missionary, and bound with good paper covers. And, besides this, it has been materially enlarged, and made more valuable by the addition of illustrations and other important information. It is the aim of the publishers to endeavor to increase rather than diminish its value.

We are now offering our people, for 50 cents a year, a good forty-eight-page monthly, equal in value and size to many missionary journals which range in price from 75 cents to $1.50.

The Missionary Magazine and Sentinel of Liberty—formerly the American Sentinel—will be clubbed together for $1.25. Let all orders be sent as heretofore—either through the state tract society or direct to the Foreign Mission Board of Seventh-day Adventists, Room 1906, 150 Nassau St., New York, N. Y.
