MORE LABORERS IN THE VINEYARD

All interested in the Colporteur work will be glad to learn that the change of the price of DAWNS, when sold by Colporteurs, to 35 cents has, as was hoped, made it possible for others to enter this most fruitful field of service for our Redeemer. Several new laborers have started and others are preparing to start soon. (For particulars of price see our last issue.)

As for the old Colporteurs, some who were behind are now getting caught up and will be able to keep ahead; while others who were able to more than meet expenses at the 25 cent rate are now enabled to contribute to the general work. The first letter of this kind received was from Sister Erlenmyer, May 29th. While saying that the wet season had hindered her greatly, she adds, “I have sold only a little over 300 DAWNS since the Anniversary Meeting, having lost so much time by reason of my present route being amongst small towns, and the weather so wet; but I have made expenses, and am able to send in to the general Tract Fund work the extra ten cents now charged, and accordingly enclose a Money Order for $30.00. Use it according to your judgment for the Master’s glory. With much love to you and Sister Russell, I am yours in the glorious service!”

Surely there are many other brethren and sisters so situated that they could, with some effort, enter this specially useful and fruitful service. While every service, great or small, done from love for the Redeemer is owned and blessed, this one yields specially large results both to the “reapers” and to those whom they reach with the sickle of truth.

“THE WONDERFUL STORY ILLUSTRATED,” AND “TABERNACLE SHADOWS.”

These two neat pamphlets, bound in Leatherette (the former of 64 pages, specially for children, and the latter of 108 pages, specially for developed Christians) are well adapted for use by Colporteurs. Not that we would have any stop selling DAWN to sell these; but there are some who cannot go away from home, and who have already canvassed their home city for DAWN, who could now make a success and do a good work for the great Master in seeking his sheep with this food. The Wonderful Story, even, although a child’s booklet, most assuredly is reaching also the older folks, who read it to and with the children. Our price is 10 cents each; Colporteurs’ price, 15 cents each—the two booklets, 25 cents. Special price to Colporteurs, seventy-five cents per dozen.

LETTERS CROWDED OUT OF LATE

The following extract from Brother J. H. Brown’s letter, just at hand, represents many of the encouraging letters recently received.

DEAR BROTHER RUSSELL:—I drop a line to tell you how much I have enjoyed reading from first to last, perhaps especially that under the last heading, the long article in last TOWER.

To one weighed down, as I have been from birth, with that spirit of fear, such words come as a cool, refreshing draught from the waters of life. But Oh! that I might come into the full stature of a man in Christ Jesus.

In love, Your brother, J. H. BROWN.
