==========
FAVORABLE METHODS OF SERVICE.
The chiefest service we could commend, open to all
who are unencumbered and in active use of their faculties,
is the Colporteur work. It is an honorable form of ministering
the truth from house to house, as the apostles
served. It is a service which the Lord seems to have
blessed as much or more than any other for gathering the
"wheat." It is apparent at once to all that to sell such
books as the DAWNS at 35 cents each, cannot be for money-making:
that it is merely another way of preaching the
truth. No other religious books are sold at any such price.
Indeed, few subscription books sell for less than two to
three dollars each. Any who can serve in this work are
invited to write to us for "Hints to Colporteurs."
