INTERESTING TO V. M. SOCIETIES.
An earnest missionary worker, who is a member of the St. Helena V. M. Society, sends us a few extracts from letters received from persons in foreign countries to whom our publications have been sent. In an accompanying note he states that with the kind help of others, he has sent away six thousand five hundred "copies of publications, in English, French, German, Swedish, and Danish." He further states that in addition to the one hundred copies of the Signs received weekly, he expects soon to have one hundred and twenty-five Stimme der Wahrheit (German) to distribute monthly. May the Lord bless his labors to the bringing of many souls to Jesus Christ. Here are the extracts:— A person writes from Adelaide, "I am very thankful for your paper, and hope it will not be the last you will send." A sailor from Antwerp says: "Your two papers, called the Signs of the Times, were sent to me from Liverpool. I was very glad to get them, and hope you will write to me at Shanghai." A captain writes from Melbourne, saying, "By the last two mails I have received two bundles of the Signs of the Times. I think it an excellent paper, and very interesting." A friend from Manchester, England, says: "I cannot tell you how much I think of your kindness, or how much I value your papers." A person from Ireland says: "Your good papers, the Signs and Good Health, are at hand. The members of our Lodge have read them, and want more." A letter from China says: "Your excellent papers have come to hand, and have been read with much interest by myself and friends." From the Cape of Good Hope a letter came, saying: "Your valuable papers have reached me in safety, and I thank you very much; but my eyesight being so bad, I cannot assist you in getting subscribers for so valuable a paper." A letter from North Carolina says: "I have received a few copies of the Signs of the Times. I have read them, and am much pleased with the rich truths they contain. Should be glad to receive more. Persons having seen my address on papers in Australia, have sent for some." These are only a sample of the letters being received by Vigilant Missionary workers all over the country. Let the good work go on till the Master comes to gather his people.
