The Price of the Review
By Editor
The price of the Review still remains unchanged, and from the good commencement which the brethren have made with their donations, will probably continue so. We know of but one other Advent paper that has not already raised its price fifty per cent. At $2,00 a year the Review, according to its reading matter, is now the cheapest Advent paper published. There are others which make a greater show, by using a large sheet, involving a great waste of paper. But they also use large type, which is for the most part profusely leaded, with an ample margin all around, thus getting a much less amount of reading matter on the page than they might, by using smaller type. On the other hand, the Review is printed in small type, the margin is cut down to the smallest proportion, and a portion of the type is set solid, thus getting the greatest amount of reading matter, into the smallest compass, and at the least expense for paper. Besides this we have no advertisements, and nothing but our publication column of standing matter; and even that, for several months past, we have inserted only once in three or four weeks. We thus, with this occasional exception, present the reader with a fresh paper filled with entirely new matter every week. If we can continue to offer this, through these times, for $2,00 a year, it will be a good record for us. Shall it be done?
